    Business Ssl recommendation

    Should I get an ssl for seo purposes? And to add trust to my site?

    Would you do this for main brand sites? What about feeder blogs? Thanks.

    Please show me where to get a deal. Thanks!

        I paid $27 for 3 years at namecheap with no issues. Seems like the thing to do now.

          Namecheap is the best option ! But if you have a feeder blog and the feed url is not secured then your content will be blocked by browsers which sucks !

            1 - Yes. If its a site you value, and is driven by SE traffic. If its a social Network driven site, it dont matter as much.

            2 - Your brand site should always run HTTPS (since there should be a Secure signup/signin anyways). Feederblogs? yes - as long as SE traffic is a factor and it makes you more than $100 a year in profit, you should.

            I have Group of 50-70 feederblogs that makes only about $100-150 a years so at this point in time, its a bad deal to spend Money on setup and certificate on those. they are mostly used for backlinks.

            3 - I use SSL Certificates Provider - Symantec VeriSign Thawte GeoTrust RapidSSL & Comodo since you get the cert faster, and can get them from many providers the same place

              Namecheap works like a charm.

                Namecheap's ssls.com site is the best deal I have found. I bought a couple of certificates and got them running this weekend. You won't be able to run certain scripts and iframes anymore though there are work arounds on some things. I'm setting up a https site just for hosting secure images and links for my main site. Any hosted ad links, images, embeds, etc not coming from an https site are not going to give you the green bar. Have fun with it, it's not plug and play.

                  They are a pain - As already said they are not plug and play - more plug and prey...

                  NameCheap make it fairly easy - Cheap as well.....

                    https://letsencrypt.org/

                    Mozilla is offering free SSL /TLS certificates but it is in beta now. I would wait if I needed a cert for a site that is not doing Oauth, ecommerce or other activities that really need a cert. In other words, have legitimate security needs.

                    Using SSL /TLS can be a can of worms for smaller websites.

                      So what ssl type do you go for?

                      Is the cheapest good enough?

                        I am in the process of switching out camfoxes to use https using a cert I bought through M3. It is a GeoTrust certificate and they will be installing it for me.

                        Will report back on how it goes.

                          Will I have to change my links and resetup everything once on a SSL?

                            internal links yes,

                            if you are curently using http in internal linking , then you should upgrade all those links to use https.

                            but make sure , https links can be accesed from majority browsers and oses.
