Add a SSL certificate
SSL certificates are used to protect your website information transfers and give a peace of mind to your customers.
Enable the HTTPS communication protocol on your website.
Is it wise to install a SSL certificate even you do not use any web application on your website simply because major indexing engines like Google will start to penalize websites that do not use HTTPS. Why? There is almost no website without javascript, HTTP protocol is vulnerable to a ManInTheMidle attack that changes the delivered files including the JS files, your webpage can act as a trojan into your clients' web browsers, Google thinks that it is good a push to make more website owners act responsibly.
SSL certificates should be certified by an Internet approved authority in order to be accepted by default in browsers.
