It is recommened to have an SSL security certificate installed your website as browsers such as google chrome are starting to show warnings and may soon block sites that don't run under HTTPS.
Visitors may get warnings about the security of your site on certain types of pages. Google chrome will display your website is not secure and other browsers will soon follow in warning messages.
The security certificate will securely encrypt and protect all the data sent to and from your website. This will prevent your site from any potential attacks, where third-party hackers often impersonate a website in order to obtain personal information.
There are many benefits of this certificate that will help a website. HTTP is a factor in google's ranking and will move your website higher on google's search list. Customers are more likely to trust and complete purchases from sites that use HTTPS.
HTTPS is highly secure implemented properly, it’s practically unhackable and the padlock indicates that you take security seriously and helps give users confidence.
What if your website does not have a shop, contact forms or pages to enter personal details so why would you need this? The benefits certainly make it worth having a certificate installed and having peace of mind that a hacker could not access any of the information on your website.
We will quote for installtion of the ssl certifcate and the audit of your website and make some changes where non-secure URLs are used and force all your pages of your website to be secure.
The process will take about half a day depending on how big the website is. This will not affect your website and it will not go offline, when this is completed a padlock will appear, showing the website is secure.
