What SSL does

SSL encrypts data between visitor and site (https + padlock). Without it, Chrome labels the page "Not Secure" — the number-one trust killer, especially on order pages.

The real impact

  • Order/payment forms without HTTPS scare data away.
  • Google gives a small free ranking boost to HTTPS.
  • Certificates are free now (Let's Encrypt) with auto-renewal — no excuse left.

A 1-minute check

  • Open your site and look for the padlock.
  • Click it: "Connection is secure" with a valid certificate.
  • Check the http:// version redirects to https.
A plain-http site in 2026 is today's homework, not next quarter's.
