What a Wildcard certificate covers

A standard certificate covers one name, such as www.example.com. A Wildcard certificate is issued to *.example.com, where the asterisk stands for any subdomain at that level, so shop.example.com and mail.example.com are covered too.

Wildcard certificates come with Domain Validation or Organization Validation.
