Why an SSL certificate?

Imagine that you are running an online shop. Your friends and acquaintances will buy from you because they know you and are sure they can trust you. To everyone else visiting your shop – and that's a lot of people – you are a complete stranger. Neutral, recognized website verification tells your visitors that they can be sure your site is authentic and offers verified security. In other words, you are someone they can trust.

Your company name on your SSL certificate

Users prefer it when they can see the verified owner of a website with a single click.

89%

Installing an EV-SSL certificate is a must for any online shop operator – and an investment that will pay off handsomely.

Phishing attacks (2015)

Small businesses are especially susceptible to identity theft and suffer major damage to their reputations.

Benefits of an SSL certificate

Show you are real

Visitors know at a glance that your company is legitimate, giving them a sense of security.

Prevent phishing

The SSL certificate shows new or very cautious visitors that your website is not fake.

More success

The SSL certificate with Extended Validation (EV) results in more traffic, purchases and registrations thanks to the visible security it offers.

Strengthen your brand

Extended Validation adds an extra level of quality to your brand's online platform because it's already the standard among professionals.

Speed and security combined

Powerful, fast 256-bit SSL encryption is so fast that your website will load at the usual speed.

Preferential treatment by Google

Improve your Google ranking by as much as 5%: better rankings in search engine results will attract more visitors to your website, translating into more interactions and sales transactions.

Google Chrome update
for more security

Before

Previously, websites without SSL certificates or encryption were not flagged as non-secure. Not having an SSL certificate thus had little impact on visitor numbers.

Today (from July 2018)

Today, websites without SSL certificates or encryption are marked as “not secure”. Not having an SSL certificate can thus reduce the number of visitors to your website.
