+Statping currently does not serve HTTPS with a SSL certificate as of today. I recommend using NGINX or Apache to serve the SSL and then have the webserver direct traffic to the Statping instance. This guide will show you how to implement SSL onto your Statping server with multiple options.
+
+**Choose the environment running the Statping instance.**
+- [Docker](#docker)
+- [NGINX](#nginx)
+- [Apache](#apache)
+
+## Docker
+Docker might be the easiest way to get up and running with a SSL certificate. Below is a `docker-compose.yml` file that will run NGINX, LetEncrypt, and Statping.
+
+1. Point your domain or subdomain to the IP address of the Docker server. This would be done on CloudFlare, Route53, or some other DNS provider.
+
+2. Replace the `docker-compose.yml` contents:
+- `MY.DOMAIN.COM` with the domain you want to use
+- `MY@EMAIL.COM` with your email address
+
+3. Run the docker container by running command `docker-compose up -d`. Give a little bit of time for LetEncrypt to automatically generate your SSL certificate.
+
+###### `docker-compose.yml`
+```yaml
+version: '2.3'
+services:
+  nginx:
+    container_name: nginx
+    image: jwilder/nginx-proxy
+    ports:

+    depends_on:
+      - nginx
+    volumes:
+      - ./statping/app:/app
+    environment:
+      VIRTUAL_HOST: MY.DOMAIN.COM
+      VIRTUAL_PORT: 8080
+      LETSENCRYPT_HOST: MY.DOMAIN.COM
+      LETSENCRYPT_EMAIL: MY@EMAIL.COM
+
+networks:
+  internet:
+    driver: bridge
+```
+
+## NGINX
+If you already have a NGINX web server running, you just have to add a proxy pass and your SSL certs to the nginx config or as a vhost. By default Statping runs on port 8080, you can change this port by starting server with `statping -ip 127.0.0.1 -port 9595`.
+
+- Replace `/my/absolute/directory/for/cert/server.crt` with SSL certificate file.
+- Replace `/my/absolute/directory/for/key/server.key` with SSL key file.
+- Run `service nginx restart` and try out https on your domain.
