Is It Really That Important To Have A Secure Server?

How can you tell if you're on a Secure Server?

Another thing you're website will need on the order page is a secure server. Now this is no big deal. Usually the company you're hosting your site with can get you a secure server page for only a couple bucks a month or in many cases at no extra charge. What is a secure server? It's just a 3rd party company that is verifying that it's safe for a customer to type their credit card info on your order form. The most important thing for you to know and understand about secure servers is that everybody expects you to have one. And if you skip this part, and just decide to use your order page without a secure server, you're customers and potential customers will see this and be skeptical about placing an order on your website.

How can you tell if an order page is secure?

Simple, when you look at an order form on the internet, you'll almost always see https instead of just http. That little letter "s" makes all the difference and if people are on your order page and don't see the "s" after http, then you just lost an order. In fact often times if a potential customer clicks your order button, and you don't have a secure order form, that person will get a warning message telling them that they should be skeptical about placing an order with you. Go ahead and look at some other peoples order pages right now, and you'll see they all start with https. Actually you may find some website owners who aren't very smart and don't have the "https" but all of the serious and most successful website owners will display the "https" on their order form page.

Again, getting a secure page on a secure server is no big deal. It's just a small technicality that you must be sure you take care of unless you want to watch money slip through your fingers.
