SSL Issues Destroy Trust
When customers see security warnings:
- Most leave immediately
- They don’t trust your site
- They may not return
- They might warn others
Common SSL Problems
Expired Certificate
Certificates have expiration dates. When they expire:
- Browsers show warnings
- Site appears insecure
- Customers can’t safely checkout
Mixed Content
HTTPS pages loading HTTP resources:
- Browser shows partial warnings
- Security seal broken
- Trust undermined
Certificate Mismatch
Certificate doesn’t match your domain:
- Wrong domain on certificate
- Missing www or non-www
- Subdomain issues
Weak Configuration
Old protocols or ciphers:
- Security vulnerabilities
- Browser compatibility issues
Shopify and SSL
Shopify provides SSL automatically, but issues can occur:
- Custom domains misconfigured
- DNS changes causing issues
- Subdomain problems
