What Google?s New Ranking Signal Means For You
 

So.... not a lot? right now at least.

wtf. More idiotic shit from google.

Might be an advantage if you are a first adapter.

Even IRS.gov has an invalid SSL. Is big bad Google going to penalize the IRS?

The big winners from this are companies like VeriSign who sell SSL certificates.

Exactly. I expect to see a huge increase in SSL certificate resellers in the coming weeks as well.

Whenever google downplays and says less than 1% it means a lot more

I smell google ssl certs..........

interesting... google just making you take out your wallet again :]

i can get ssl certs for under $5 each not the end of the world.

So I just googled what the heck this is.

I don't get what the benefit to the surfer is, do you all?

Is the idea that Google can use https accounts to tell exactly what the map of sites believe belonging to an organization is?

How are some resellers doing $4.99 each, while more primary sites seem to be selling organization-wide or server-wide certificates? Doesn't this defeat the purpose?

Good topic, Jay :thumbsup

Are most of the folks on this forum seriously not interested in this?

Seems like chaturbate went HTTPS - is this a new move from them or been out there for a while?

Happened just a few days ago. Screwed up some of the whitelabels on folks and also screwed up the pull from the xml feed.

There's a thread about it somewhere from the day it happened.

Thanks Jay :)

We're starting a new mainstream site and made all the url's https :)

Debating if we'll do it with Barelist's redesign, not sure yet... we get a lot of traffic from Google, so I'm nervous of changing URLS.

Also, makes sense... not everyone will go out and buy wildcard certificates for $100+ for smaller sites. Maybe gives Google a clue to people that care a bit more about their sites...
