You would first need to obtain a valid SSL certificate.
Your host may charge for this, or you may able to use their hosting panel to obtain one for free via Auto SSL / Let’s Encrypt / similar.
Once you have a valid SSL certificate, you can use one of these plugins:

Thanks. SSL enabled in my host’s Control Panel and plugin succesfully installed and activated.
Now my site is https:// 🙂
How do I get and display my SSL Certifiate?
Your site loads when I visit it over https://
The SSL certificate is displayed by the user’s browser – you don’t display it somewhere on your site.
Consider installing an SSL plugin – alternatively you would need to edit your .htaccess / whichever file your rewrite rules are located in (that would depend on your host) to force SSL for your site.

Hi, I did install an SSL plugin.
Great that it loads over https:// at your end.

I have now downloaded a Cert File, Key File and CA File from the developer of the SSL plugin, WP Encryption.
What do I need to do with them, please?
