Since January 2017, Google is penalizing websites that do not have an SSL security certificate.

What are the consequences of not having the SSL Certificate?

It is expected that Google will begin to give greater relevance to sites that use secure connections, improving their SEO positioning. In addition, sites that display the secure site warning with respect to those that display the unsafe message have a lower bounce rate, as the user's confidence increases.

What is the SSL Certificate?

This certificate certifies that the website you browse is safe, since the information registered in it is encrypted. The certificate must be installed, and only the https webs are the ones that have it, contrary to the ones that do not have it.

What is HTTPS?

It is the acronym for "Hyper Text Transfer Protocol Secure", and involves the installation of an SSL certificate that encrypts the information making navigation in the browser more secure.

How will the end user know if I have an SSL certificate or not?

Apart from the url address, the user can see in the new version of "Google Chrome" a warning in the addresses that do not have the SSL certificate. With the arrival of the new version of the browser Google Chrome 56 in January 2017, websites that do not have this certificate will show in the address bar (url) a warning icon in red followed by "Not secure".
