What is an SSL?
SSL (secure socket
layer) is a security layer, a protocol which encrypts data sent to and from
your website to a browser over The Internet (public network). You most
likely have used them many times while making payments online or logging
into your bank for example.

In addition to securing
payment/personal/business data, now Google has
stated it prefers websites which have their own SSL (this was in our
newsletter Sept 2014:
seiretto.com/newsletters/google-prefers-SSL). It means you can use
the certification to boost your Google ranking. In the future it is
possible that only websites using an SSL will be listed in the Google
index. So to get, and stay, listed in Google's primary index you should have an SSL
