A Certificate Signing Request (CSR) is required if you would like to have an SSL certificate which will encode the payment and login info that will be exchanged between your website and its visitors. The CSR contains info about the website as well as its owner in Base64-encoded form - web address, physical address plus email, company name and unit, etcetera. Based on this code, a registered SSL vendor issues the certificate, that is digitally signed with the vendor's private key so as to show that they are a reliable issuer. Throughout the CSR generation, a unique private key is also created and the installation of the SSL involves all of the 4 codes - both the keys, the certificate and the CSR. Next, you'll be able to use a URL that starts with https:// for your site rather than http:// and your site visitors can view the info that you have provided for the CSR through their web browsers.
