Search engines prioritize websites with installed security certificates and penalize those without SSL protection.
How Does an SSL Certificate Work?
Browser
Your client accesses your site via a browser, which requests the web server to identify itself.
Web Server
The server sends your SSL Certificate to the browser. Once verified, the browser sends a confirmation back to the server.
Security Confirmation
Your customers feel confident knowing their data is secure on your site. A URL starting with HTTPS and a padlock in the browser indicates security.

Frequently Asked Questions
