Title: Does SSL Certificate matter ?
Post by: ea11r on January 24, 2021, 03:15:26 AM
Buying and selling goods and services are becoming more popular each day since smart phones are widely use. But many people are still feeling unease when entering sensitive details such as credit card information in order to buy a product from a website. To increase your consumer confidence when accessing and using your website you could install an SSL certificate (https://www.hostneverdie.com/ssl-certificate) to enable HTTPS in your website. With HTTPS the data being sent over the internet is encrypted. This protect your website from packet sniffing and data theft. Therefore, SSL (https://www.hostneverdie.com/ssl-certificate) secures ecommerce transactions such as credit card numbers and passwords. Your website will also get a boost in your SERP ranking since most search engines love website that use HTTPS rather than HTTP.

Most hosting (https://www.hostneverdie.com/) providers allow you to use free Secure Socket Layer Certificate from Let's Encrypt, Cloudflare, or other CA but paid SSL certificates are much better than the free ones. Free SSL certificate only verify the domain of the website but some paid SSL certificate verify company and address of the website owner. This boost the credibility and trust for your visitors. In addition paid SSL certificates come with TrustLogo site seal. You can install the seal in your website and it surely increase consumer confidence especially when they enter personal data. There are many CA (Certificate Authorizer) that can issue SSL certificate for you to choose such as Sectigo, Thawte, GeoTrust, RapidSSL, Digicert, AlphaSSL, and GlobalSign. But the most trustworthy Secure Socket Layer CAs are probably Digicert and GlobalSign.

Your website needs any SSL certificate If you're asking for any personal information. But that's not all there is to it. Search engines are cracking down on perceived 'non-secure' websites. Any websites without the SSL certificate will remain http while those with encryption will show https in users' browsers.

SSL/TLS is incredibly important. Without it, your customers' data is viewable by third parties, in many cases quite trivially so. The Internet is a shared pipe; you should look at the data flowing through it as written on the backs of postcards, not safely encoded in sealed envelopes. If you want the latter, you need encryption.

But SSL would be important even without the need to encrypt your customers' data. Without SSL, users and their browsers have no way to validate the identity of websites they visit and ensure that website X really is website X and that a message from X truly came from X without modification. This allows adversaries to not only view the contents of communication but impersonate one side of the connection—again, often times quite easily. I firmly believe every nontrivial website on the Internet should utilize SSL. Thankfully the IETF seems to agree with me and is moving standards in a similar direction. HTTP 2.0 is likely to require SSL.

There are business reasons to fix your SSL, too. Even unsophisticated users are trained to look for the SSL padlock icon before divulging private data.

(As to your issue, it sounds as if your certificate is self-signed, installed incorrectly, or has missing intermediate certificates. The fix is likely simple for a professional.)

We all know about this that SSL is important for our website and Google also shows security error if your website don't have SSL certificate. Its not compulsory to buy certificate as many website hosting providers provide Free SSL certificate. So its easy to secure your website. If you are using cpanel then you can check steps to activate SSL certificate (http://hoststud.com/threads/steps-to-activate-ssl-certificate-in-cpanel.667/).
