When should you have a security certificate for your website?

• If you collect any sensitive information on your website itself such as social security numbers, driver's license numbers, credit cards (not through a separate gateway), or anything similar, you should have a security certificate.
• Some SEO experts also recommend having a security certificate since it may contribute to higher search engine rankings. 
• You require a dedicated IP address rather than a shared IP address. We only provided dedicated IP addresses for websites with security certificates.
• If you simply wish to show that your site is secure to help your customers feel more comfortable using your website.

If you choose to utilize PayPal as a payment gateway on one of our eCommerce Storefronts, an SSL certificate is required.
