Still shocking me how many blogs out there are sitting on http and not https!

Get with it folks! It's bad enough with the google de-ranking but the 'THE WEBSITE IS NOT SAFE' you get on Chrome and Safari are not a good first impression for your first time readers!

Finally did the swap this week. Just need to work out how to create a sitemap. Thanks for the nudge @Jon. One thing off my long blog todo list
Great stuff, glad you got it all sorted!!

Argh I really need to get this done. But I got my hosting from husband's work and they're letting me have it free until I have more traffic, I can't get into it myself and I feel like I can't push with asking too often because they're doing me a favour!

For the total cost of £17.50 a year (£1.45 a month!) I would just move your site over to Kloudhost - You need to have total control of your site for reasons such as this!! If Google chrome is going to start alerting users to non https sites from next month in a more aggressive way that's nothing something you want to be part of!

That is a bargain! Can't even afford that this month, but maybe soon. I was gonna just pay in the beginning, but got tempted with a freebie! I'll give them another nudge. If I can make a proper go of it though, (not yet, but hopefully!) then you're right, I should sort it myself!

aye, you're literally losing traffic/views for nothing!
