HTTPS: Strengthen Your Website Security and Improve SEO Rankings

 HTTPS: Strengthen Your Website Security and Improve SEO Rankings

If you want your website to rank higher on Google, security should be at the top of your SEO checklist. While search engine optimization has many moving parts, Google has made one thing clear: websites using HTTPS are prioritized in search results.

At nicenic.net, we know that securing your site with HTTPS not only protects your visitors but also gives your SEO a boost. Here’s how it works—and why it’s time to make the switch.

HTTP vs. HTTPS – What’s the Difference?
HTTPS (Hypertext Transfer Protocol Secure) is the secure version of HTTP. It encrypts the data exchanged between a visitor’s browser and your server, preventing interception or tampering by third parties.
HTTPS relies on SSL (Secure Sockets Layer) or TLS (Transport Layer Security) protocols to ensure data integrity and confidentiality. You can easily spot a secure site by:
Seeing “https://” at the beginning of its URL
Noticing a padlock icon in the browser address bar
If someone tries to access your website using HTTP, a properly configured site will automatically redirect them to the secure HTTPS version.

How HTTPS Impacts SEO
To enable HTTPS, you’ll need an SSL certificate from a trusted provider like nicenic.net. This certificate is issued by a Certificate Authority (CA) after validating your ownership of the domain.
Google has confirmed that HTTPS is a ranking factor. Since 2015, sites with HTTPS have been given preference in search results over those without it. This means that adding HTTPS can directly improve your visibility and click-through rates.

Choosing the Right SSL Certificate
While all SSL certificates enable HTTPS, they offer varying levels of validation:
Domain Validation (DV): Quick and simple, ideal for blogs or personal sites
Organization Validation (OV): Verifies your business details for more trust
Extended Validation (EV): The highest level of security, turning your browser bar green and displaying your business name
For e-commerce, financial services, or any site handling sensitive data, we recommend EV SSL certificates for maximum trust and protection.

Beyond SEO – More Reasons to Switch to HTTPS
User Trust: Visitors feel more confident sharing data with a secure site
Data Integrity: Ensures your website content isn’t altered in transit
Regulatory Compliance: Meets security standards for online transactions
