5: Select the Domain validation method, in the below example we'll use email validation, once all the information is submitted, click Confirm

Email validation

The easiest and preferred method is completing the verification with email-based authentication. Using this preferred method, we will send an email to the WHOIS registrar email address asking you to verify that you purchased a DV certificate. As an alternative to the WHOIS registered email, the authentication email can be sent to one of five pre-approved email addresses associated with the website domain. The five pre-approved addresses are;

Admin@csrdomain.com
Administrator@csrdomain.com
Webmaster@csrdomain.com
Hostmaster@csrdomain.com
Postmaster@csrdomain.com

File validation

A text file that you will need to upload to the root directory of your website will be provided. This will then be verified by the CA through HTTP or HTTPS in order to proof domain control.

DNS validation

Two unique hash values will be provided (these are MD5 and SHA1). You, in turn, must enter them in your CNAME DNS record and the CA will then validate domain once the DNS-change has been made and is visible to the CA.

6: Check the request on the overview page and click Complete order to request the certificate

7: Confirmation will be given the certificate has been requested

8: Click View request to go to the request overview page, in case for whatever reason the DCV email was not received, there's an option on the request page to resend the DCV-email or send a message to the CA to receive support. There's also an option to schedule the validation call, in case you've opted for DNS or File validation, instructions can be found here regarding the additional steps that you need to take to proof domain control as well.
