News Of Heberdomaine: SSL https et SEO
An SSL (Secure Sockets Layer) certificate allows you to use the HTTPS (HyperText Transfer Protocol Secure) protocol on your website and thus ensure the security of data exchanges from or to a server.
Unlike the HTTP protocol, HTTPS is a secure protocol that encrypts the data you manage: emails, personal information, banking information, etc.
In the absence of this protection, the direct consequence is a risk of misappropriation or falsification of this information. Google search engine: new for sites that are not secure.
To meet ever-increasing security requirements on the Web and increase the protection of sensitive data against hackers, Google decided to penalize insecure sites that use an HTTP protocol (thus those without an SSL certificate) from 2017.
Visual impact
As indicated in the Google blog dedicated to developers (Blog google), when an Internet user visits an unsecured site with the Google Chrome browser (used by 3/4 of Internet users), he will thus see the message "Not secure (not secure) in the address bar. This warning could clearly encourage him to be suspicious of the site consulted and to push him to leave it to visit another one.
SEO impact
Google will depreciate the SEO of sites that are not HTTPS.
Beyond Google's new rules, SSL certificates offer many security benefits. The implementation of this makes it possible to contribute greatly to the security of the web, to the protection of your personal data and to ensure an optimal referencing of your site. At Heberdomaine, all new websites developed for our customers and managed by us have an SSL certificate and therefore use the HTTPS protocol.
