Websites, SSL & business email

Build and publish customer websites, secure them with SSL, and set up email on their domain.

Overview

OPS Web sites are built in the Browser at opsweb.sa → Control panel → the site. A site is live when it's published and its domain's DNS points at OPS Web (198.18.10.80) — or at the customer's own server. HTTPS needs a valid OPS Trust CA certificate; email needs a mailbox and an MX record pointing at mx.opsweb.sa. While you're on the job you can edit the customer's sites and domains.

Jobs this covers

web_build, web_ssl, web_mail — certificate: Web developer (recommended)

The equipment — what everything does

Site builder

Pages made of blocks (header, text, images, features, price list, gallery, contact form, hours, links, quote, call to action).

In game: Browser → opsweb.sa → Control panel → the site → Pages.

Connect domain

Points the domain at the site and fixes the DNS for you.

In game: Site → Address → choose domain → Connect.

SSL certificate

Turns on the padlock (HTTPS).

In game: Site → Get SSL, or opsdomains.sa → the domain → Security certificate.

Mailboxes

info@domain etc., delivered into a phone's Mail app.

In game: opsweb.sa → Control panel → Email → + Mailbox.

Tools & PPE

Engineer laptop & console cable

Configures routers, NVRs and servers, runs speed tests and opens OPS Hub.

Standalone servers: tools are in your van (OPS Work → My van & tools). Items servers: collect them — and the job’s parts — at an OPS depot.

Health & safety

Customer data & privacy

Risk: Router settings, passwords and camera footage are private.

Control: Only change what the job needs. Never share Wi-Fi passwords or footage, and log out of customer systems when you finish.

Copyright & honesty

Risk: Using other people's images or making false claims gets the site taken down.

Control: Use the customer's own material and accurate details.

Screen time

Risk: Long sessions at a screen cause eye strain.

Control: Take regular short breaks.

In game you confirm these in a risk assessment before starting. Skipping them on risky work can cause a fall or a shock — and it’s logged as a safety incident.

When it’s not done correctly

Site saved but not published

The check fails: 'isn't published'.

Domain not pointing at the site

Visitors see a parked page or an error, and the check fails until DNS points at the site.

Fewer than four blocks

The build check counts content blocks.

Certificate requested before DNS points at the server

Validation fails — connect the domain first.

Mailbox created but MX pointing elsewhere

Mail bounces and the email check fails.
