A Certificate Signing Request (CSR) is needed when you want to obtain an SSL certificate which will encode all the payment and login information which will be exchanged between your site and its clients. The CSR contains information about the website as well as its owner in Base64-encoded form - web address, physical address and email, company name and unit, and the like. Based on this code, a registered SSL vendor provides you with the certificate, that is digitally signed with the vendor's private key so as to show that they are a dependable issuer. Throughout the CSR generation, a unique private key is also created and the set up of the SSL involves all of the 4 codes - both the keys, the certificate and the CSR. After that, you can use a URL beginning with https:// for your site instead of http:// and your website visitors will be able to view the info that you have provided for the CSR via their web browsers.
