SSL Certificates

What is SSL and why do I need it?

SSL (Secure Socket Layer) is a standard internet security technology that is used to provide an encrypted connection between a web server (website) and a browser. SSL certificates allow us to use the HTTPS protocol. This is a secure connection that ensures that the information transmitted from your browser to the server remains private. That is, data is protected from hackers or anyone who wants to take advantage of private information. One of the most common examples of using SSL is client protection during online transaction (goods purchase, payments, etc.).

Google considers security one of the most significant aspects of its policy, so websites with HTTPS (using SSL certificates) have been ranked higher than websites without it. This has a big SEO impact.

At the same time, if you are still on HTTP, users will eventually receive the insecure connection warning. This is important as more than 50% of all people browsing the internet make use of the Google Chrome web browser.

Wildcard SSL certificates become more popular today as they have a strong reputation of a great cost-savers since can protect unlimited sub-domains within same domain instead of purchasing multiple single domain certs. Most Wildcard certificates support unlimited server licensing and allowing installation to as many servers/devices as you want in versatile combination of sub-domains. Unlimited free reissues comes with every purchase.
