 +====== Why is my website showing "Not Secure" on web browsers? ======
  
 +When a web browser connects to a website, it can either use the HTTPS or HTTP protocol. Websites with URL that starts with HTTP uses the HTTP protocol, which is not capable of providing a secure encrypted connection, triggering the "Not Secure" warning.
 +
 +If your website is showing up as "Not Secure", it means that it is missing an SSL certificate.
 +
 +To get browsers to display as "Secure", it is necessary to enable HTTPS for your website, by installing an SSL certificate. Enabling SSL/HTTPS for your website is crucial as it does not only protect your website from cyberattacks, but also bring about good impression for customers who visit your website. Read more about the importance of enabling SSL/HTTPS for your website here.
