Google has started a vision to improve connection security; Google
is inspiring – some might say pushing- website owners to guard
their blog or website by installing SSL certificate. In October 2017
Google Chrome started manifesting “Not Secure” caution when users
enter data on an HTTP page or if visiting HTTP page in private mode.
In July 2018 Google started the next phase, by displays “Not
Secure” caution when visiting every HTTP sites via chrome.
What is an SSL Certificate?
SSL stands for Secure Sockets Layer, and it is the
security protocol which builds an encrypted and secure transmission
bridge between a web browser and a web server. To build an SSL
connection and trigger it on your web server, you require a
certificate, called SSL Certificate. When installed on a web server,
SSL Certificate triggers a secure padlock and https
protocol, enabling end-users to safely submit sensitive data such as
personal details, banking details, credit card details, and more to a
Company’s website.
Concisely, SSL certificate allows secure communication across the
internet by encrypting the information like your password or credit
card data which is being transferred between your computers and the
server. When visiting a website or blog which is protected by SSL
certificate you will notice a padlock icon or green bar on the left
side of your URL bar. The padlock icon and the ‘s’
in the ‘https’ in the address bar evidence that
the website is secure, and is using a protected and encrypted
connection. These encryption and security are configured to the
website using an SSL Certificate.
Transferring from HTTP to HTTPS supports you with organic search
ranking. If you are looking for an uptick in your organic search
traffic your better make the switch NOW. The other advantage is you
are not only developing faith by protecting the transmission of
sensitive data but also guarding your website against hackers
infusing harmful ads or spyware. Since many of applications and tools
are now interfacing across HTTPS you will notice it hard to retain
your website operational.
What SSL certificate should you get?
This is about certificate validation level not certificate types
but this defines about how much does it cost to get an SSL
certificate? Either you can go with Open Certificate Authority or
Commercial Certificate Authority.

community-driven CA which offers free SSL certificates, Lets Encrypt
