When you're finished click 'Save & add domain'.
Step 2

you enter clients domains on which certificate will reside on. One or multiple domains may be entered be using the '+ Save & add additional domain' button.
1. Add the domain name only (without ‘http://’; example: newdomain.com). You can also enter a subdomain (example: sub.newdomain.com).
2. Add a description of the website. Description is displayed on verified page under ‘Commercial websites’
If the client does not have a domain you may skip this step by clicking 'skip & add cert'
