A FEW WORDS ABOUT Internet & Online Marketing : Online security CATEGORY
Your website traffic either from a search engine or web directory is going to expect your site to be secure from viruses and hackers that may want to steal their personal information which may be required for certain transactions on your website.
This is especially true if you are going to have a section of your site dedicated to ecommerce where customers will be asked to enter their credit card information and potentially their social security number. The quickest way to cause irreparable damage to your website commerce section is to gain a reputation for having customer's personal information stolen after using your site. There are a few things you can do to insure the security of your customers as they visit and use your site, and they are very simple procedures.
The first thing to do is to purchase a secure encryption certificate for your website, and make every form on your website a secure part of the site. Your web hosting service can easily supply you with a secure encryption certificate for your site, and all you need to do to use it is to designate the site as an HTTPS site rather than the standard HTTP site you see on most websites.
This locks anyone else out of the website while your customer is entering sensitive information into a form of any kind.
