About SSL

Securing your website is rapidly becoming a best-practice for investor and corporate websites. Visitors will see a lock in their address bar, before your domain name. This instills confidence with visitors that the site is legitimate and the organization certifies that the information within it is secure and correct. Google also ranks sites secured with an SSL Certificate above non-secured sites. Employing an SSL Certificate makes it nearly impossible for hackers to intercept information users are reading or sending to your website.
