Google and SSL

Just today I read a blog post on WA about SSL and website security.

Google new algorythms call for the use of SSL and want to have more security on

the websites to secure user data. The SSL enables encryption for data safety

and can even secure the website owner data for such things as passwords and

login information.

At first I was stumped about the whole thing but realized that my website was

not secure and I had to find a way to fix that. I researched it and found a

good post on WA about enabling SSL on the wordpress websites. Most people

charge a fee for SSL Certificate but with WA we have it included on the sites.

Look at this post and learn about enabling SSL on your site:

The girls language is rare but you can make out the main words and follow the

video to get the job done.

Another issue I found was that, after I got my site secure, there is a version

of SSL called TLSv1 that is an older version of TLS and is to be outdated by

June 30, 2018. My website has this old version and I imagine many sites still

have it so maybe wordpress will issue an update before the June 30, 2018

deadline. We will see.

There might be some questions about all this so leave them please in the

comments section down below. Good luck on your site and with the SSL Compliance

for Google.

Cheers,
