SSL Certification Installation

What is it?

Secure Sockets Layer – SSL – is the technology for encrypting links between a server and a browser. This ensures that any data passed between the website and your server (forms, payments, etc.) is protected and remains private.

Why should you care?

If you are collecting any data or contact information on your site you should have an SSL certificate to protect it, making it one of the steps in becoming GDPR compliant. Even if you don’t collect data, major search engines (such as Google) block and negatively rank sites that do not have an SSL certificate properly installed.
