Get A Valid SSL Certificate

Google’s Chrome browser will display a security warning on all web sites that are not HTTPS starting October 2017.

If your website has text input fields on an HTTP page or it is opened in the incognito mode, Chrome will display a warning notification to the user.

What’s next? Your website will be deemed “not secure” causing visitors to leave.

That means: lost business opportunities

Secure your business and your website’s SEO. Move to HTTPs today.

  1. Set up a new Search Console Account then fetch and crawl your new HTTPs websiteThings to remember:“After migration from HTTP to HTTPS, website’s all URLs get changed completely. Search engine like Google will need to re-crawl.
  1. After you are done with all the above steps, it is advisable to update your Google Analytics Website’s URL. To do this, click into Admin under your account. View settings, then click the URL and modify it to the HTTPs version.
