Daily Facts - Day #29: Half of websites are still unsecure!

I just saw a recent W3Techs report saying that ...

50.6% of websites use a valid SSL certificate.

In other words: 49.4% of websites are still unsecure!

I'd say that's simply frightening ...

And made me to realize again, how lucky we are here at WA!

You might think that having free SSL with a $49 premium membership is something normal ...

Well, it isn't!

Each hosting company will charge you seperately for an SSL certificate.

Last time when I checked, GoDaddy's Standard SSL was $69! For one year! For ONE site!

Absolutely! I had SSL problems with our business site hosted by blue host. I also had issues with my website at WA but it was fixed in minutes thanks to your help, guys!

Yes, the quality of security at WA is exceptional!
Deeply grateful for all these wonderful included features at WA!
Aloha, Jenna

Aloha!

Thanks for your feedback Jenna!

Yes, I've tried other website companies and they have you pay extra for their SSL certificates. So, when I got to be here with WA it was a really nice bonus that they offered SSL certification with the membership. And I'm really enjoying it!

We all do :)

100% agree. I bought SSL from Namecheap after the purchase of my domain. It was in that price range you mentioned.

The not so funny part is that I never got around to installing it because the How-To-Guide was three pages long. In other words, it was not pain free.

With WA it's standard with the installation.

There's nothing more unsettling than going to a website and your browser gives you the message: This website is not secure!

I agree!

Thanks for stepping by Gustavo!

Man dude there you go again doing right man you are awesome thanks for the info gbu and your family always.

Thanks Ramon!

Please call me Ray we're WA brothers.

Thanks Ray!

This service we have at WA is amazing in this regard and so important thanks for reminding me and sharing

Thanks for reading Alan!

My site is still unsecure..I tried to fix it before but now the worning add is poping again..How can I fix it?

Have you activated the SSL?

Just did.. Thank you!

You're welcome!

Oh yes, another wonderful reason to be thankful for WA!

Last time I checked other hosting companies i.e., HostGator or Blue Host, they will add on an additional monthly fee (anywhere from say $4 - $10) per month - per site.

That can really add up!

And I am thankful to you for you posting this!

And I am thankful to you for your feedback Susan!

I still have bad taste in my mouth from GoDaddy making me wait 60 days just to transfer a domain name.

I can understand that Mark :)

But, that's a quite common practice among host providers ...

He isn't talking about the time needed for the actual transfer

He is talking about a newly purchased domain that can't be transferred in the first 2 two months

Thank goodness we are in WA.

Thanks to your wallet :)

I'm glad we work with WA

Agree!
