How Does A Godaddy SSL Certificate Work?
An Godaddy SSL certificate makes sure your customers have a safe shopping environment when purchasing products online.
When a visitor enters this secure webpage on your website, any credit card information, email address or other personal information is encrypted so that no one can see it.
The SSL Certificate helps create secure/encrypted web session. This process is called a “Handshake”.
The SSL “handshake” takes place without anyone even knowing and avoids any interruption of the shoppers shopping experience. A”padlock” icon in the browser’s status bar.
The “https://” prefix in the web address is only visible when you are in a secure session.
If you are selling products online or gathering personal private information from your website visitors, you should make sure you have an SSL installed otherwise this private information is open to potential hackers.
