SSL Data
Encryption is the common method of encrypting data between your
Internet web browser and the server the web page is hosted on. When
you make online purchases your personal information and credit card
number are sent from your browser to the web server for the
processing of your order. Since web pages are sent in plain text over
an open network any data sent to the web server would be sent in plain
text as well. To prevent the interception of confidential information
it must be encrypted. Encryption prevents the transmission of plain
text over the open network of the Internet. Always look for the lock  or
an https:// in the address bar of your browser when making purchases
or sending your personal information over the Internet.
The latests in website trends is "Encryption Everywhere". This means your webiste will likely be afected. Browsers will begin to show sites as not secure even if there is no need to encrypt the content, and search engines will use this as a ranking signal. As a ranking signal, your site will likely be moved lower in your search position.
