Need an SSL installed
Help, I need an SSL installed on my Linode hosted website and can't find anyone to do it. They have sent me all of the "do it yourself" steps but it's over my head, I'm not a developer.

Linode Staff
Hey there,
Installing SSL certs is something that Linode's support staff would not assist with directly, since Linode's Scope of Linode Customer Support is limited to the underlying hardware and network infrastructure, but there are a few options for situations like yours:
Professional Services is Linode's in-house service for one-off developer/system administrative fixes. They bill by the hour, and I believe have a 1-hour minimum. If this is something you are interested in, you can fill out a form for a price quote here:

Beyond this, there are sites like UpWork that you could hire someone to do work like this for you:

If you are feeling up to it, and are using a WordPress configuration to host your site, I personally wrote a step-by-step guide on how to set up SSL configurations for Linode customers, which you can check out here:

Hopefully those solutions help you out a bit!
