What exactly is SSL/TLS Security?

SSL/TLS is a standard security protocol for creating encrypted connections between your website and a visitor's web browser. (It's actually two different protocols - "Secure Sockets Layer" and "Transport Layer Security". Our web servers use TLS, which is the current preferred standard, but most of the world knows this technology as SSL.)

Once the secured connection is created, data passing between your site and the visitor is scrambled for protection against hackers. The green padlock, "Secure" label and "https:" address confirm the connection is secure for both your leads and Google's ranking systems.
 

Do I really need SSL/TLS?

You don't need SSL/TLS security - your website will continue to work just fine without it. BUT it provides so many benefits you should really consider it a "must-have". First, Google is now ranking secure sites higher than non-secure sites, so you get a bump in your SEO and potentially more traffic. Second, the green padlock is a huge reputation boost for your current clients and new leads - it shows you care about their personal information and want to keep it secure. Finally, consider your own browsing habits - do YOU feel comfortable entering your personal information on a site labelled "Not secure"? If you want to capture maximum leads, you need to secure your site(s)!
 

What is an "SSL/TLS Certificate"?

For secured connections to work, a Security Certificate is required to establish proof that you own your website domain. When a visitor connects to your site, the certificate is validated and an encrypted connection is created.

Here's an IMPORTANT point: The SSL/TLS Certificate only validates a domain. It's just one part of the technology that secures your website. Once you have a Certificate, it must still be generated, installed, and maintained on your web server.

Luckily, our Managed Security service includes SSL/TLS Certificates as a bonus, so you don't have to buy them from anyone else! And we take care of all the setup and maintenance!
 

How do I get SSL/TLS for my WebAgentSolutions system? What does it cost?

With our Managed Security service, we take care of all the details for you! Just tell us which domains you need secured and we'll register and install the appropriate Certificates. We'll configure your website for TLS (the current preferred security standard) and make sure it displays the green padlock symbol to all visitors. And we'll automatically renew your Certificates when they expire.*

SSL/TLS requires a validation Certificate for each domain, therefore we price Managed Security based on the number of domains you want secured. Service starts from $120/year to secure one domain. We offer bundle pricing so you can secure ALL the domains you use in your marketing.

Not every domain you use in your online marketing may need to be secured. "Redirect" domains do not need security Certificates. WebAgentSolutions can check your current domains and help you figure out what level of Managed Security you need.

Preserve your reputation, build trust with leads, and boost your search rankings for an extremely affordable annual fee!
 

What about SSL/TLS Certificates from third parties like GoDaddy? Those seem cheaper than this...

Here's an IMPORTANT point that Certificate resellers don't clarify: The SSL/TLS Certificate only validates your website domain. It's just one part of the technology that secures your website. Once you buy a Certificate, it must still be generated, installed, and maintained on your web server. You still have a lot of work to do to create the secured files and install them. (And the reseller charges extra to help you.)

Luckily, our service includes SSL/TLS Certificates as a bonus, so you don't have to buy them from anyone else! You may actually SAVE money with Managed Security, especially if you're securing multiple domains. And we take care of all the setup and maintenance!
