Check out this tutorial on all the details of setting up Apache to serve content using SSL. Namecheap also provides their own documentation. Essentially what you need to do is upload the certs and add a new VirtualHost to your Apache config. Something like:
<VirtualHost *:443>
SSLEngine on
SSLProtocol all -SSLv2
SSLCipherSuite ALL:!ADH:!EXPORT:!SSLv2:RC4+RSA:+HIGH:+MEDIUM
SSLCertificateFile /etc/apache2/ssl/ssl.crt
SSLCertificateKeyFile /etc/apache2/ssl/private.key
SSLCertificateChainFile /etc/apache2/ssl/sub.class1.server.ca.pem
ServerAdmin webmaster@localhost
DocumentRoot /var/www/html
# Other configuration...
</VirtualHost>
