In this Cloudways SSL tutorial, I’ll show you how to add an SSL to your WordPress site.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Your website will go from having the http<\/strong> version in your domain name to the https<\/strong> version.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Having an SSL certificate is important because it protects your visitors’ information as it passes between your website and your web hosting server.<\/p>\n\n\n\n It’s recommended and often required if you want to take payments directly on your website. It will protect your customers’ personal details, as well as credit card information.<\/p>\n\n\n\n It’s also a Google ranking factor, so your website will rank lower in search results if you don’t have an SSL installed, compared to those who do.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Table of Contents<\/p>\n
