In short
- After installing SSL, all traffic must be redirected to HTTPS.
- WordPress address settings and the .htaccess redirect should be updated together.
- Internal links must use HTTPS to avoid mixed content warnings.
Browsers now display a safe or not secure warning when accessing websites, which makes the visitors nervous, so if there is no safe warning, users leave the website immediately and return to the site owner as traffic loss. Traffic loss affects your rankings in search engines, so a chain loss occurs.
This is where SSL (Security certificate) comes into play. If you don't have an SSL certificate, you should get SSL. As Uzman Tescil, we provide free SSL certificate to our hosting users.
After processing the SSL you purchased on your WordPress site, you enter your administration panel.
- We search by typing "Really Simple SSL" in the plugin search field by following the Plugins - Add New steps from the Wordpress administration panel.
- We integrate the "Really Simple SSL" plugin, which appears as a result of the search, to our site by saying "Install Now".
- We activate our plugin that we have installed by clicking the "Activate" button.
When you follow these steps, our installation process will be completed after the process. However, the image, link etc. manually added in the software. The content can create editing problems from time to time. You may need to manually control the software for such content. It will be sufficient to edit these components, which are http that you detect in the controls, as https.
We wish you lots of traffic days.
