HTTPS and SSL: the padlock that reassures your visitors

Have you noticed the padlock next to the address of some sites? That's HTTPS, made possible by an SSL certificate. Today, it's a mandatory minimum.

What it's for

HTTPS encrypts the exchanges between the visitor and your site. No one can intercept the information (forms, passwords, payments).

Browsers display "Not secure" on sites without HTTPS, which drives visitors away. Google also favors secure sites.

An SSL certificate can be free (Let's Encrypt) or paid. We set it up so your site shows the padlock as soon as it goes live.
