139 09-Mar-2017, 11:04 AM (This post was last modified: 09-Mar-2017, 11:05 AM by Oscar.) I have been considering if we should get our forum to use SSL, which would turn our URL header from http to https
It will cost me $60 a year, and probably half a day sitting in front of the computer to do it.
Benefits are, secure login (the only place we access sensitive info, really), and more threads would appear in google search results (since Google prefers https now apparently)
What do you guys think?

139 the forum software is expecting a major upgrade this year too (I hope), so I was kind of thinking maybe I should do both upgrades at the same time...

74 Good idea. I read somewhere that Google Chrome is going to start being more annoying about http sites.

23 As long as you're good with the cost and extra effort, I think it could be beneficial, particularly moving forward......
