Experiment started: HTTPS for ITSecurityNews.info

TOPICS:https it security news itsecuritynews.info

Posted By: Sorin Mustaca August 14, 2017

The Internet is telling everyone to switch to HTTPS for various reasons:

better security
better SEO from the search engines (read: Google)
others

While I agree with most of the reasons, I think that it is not really necessary for a read-only news portal to have HTTPS. It is no secret transferred, no login, nothing… Just text and links. And Ads… 🙂

So, my hosting provider Strato is giving me a free SSL certificate. After a long thinking and testing, I activated it for ItSecurityNews.info.

From now on, you’ll be redirected to the HTTPS://ItSecurityNews.info even if you just type ItSecurityNews.info or http://www.ItSecurityNews.info

Let’s see how much visitors this brings … or takes.
