SSL certificates are issued to the domain it then requires installing via your host or yourself. Shared hosting, the host would do the install for you since you don't normally have the option to do so. On unmanaged services such as dedicated, vps and instances on Amazon you are expected to install software yourself. Valid SSL certificates are issued by ...

If your web page is hosted on port 9001, just enable any port on your linux box and make these changes in /etc/httpd/conf.d/ssl.conf.

This Stack Overflow answer makes some good points. It would be important to explicitly specify the protocol so that the target asset is loaded correctly within a document opened from a local drive (file:) or when using "iframe magic" (about:).

BuySellAds does not support SSL at this time. I spent several hours setting up an account and configuring ad code on my site based on the previous answer. Your site must also go through an approval process. When their placement scripts failed to load under SSL, I opened a support ticket and found out they do not support SSL. This wasted quite a few hours ...

Google Analytics tracks HTTP and HTTPS with it's default configuration. So I think it's likely that your problems are some other configuration of your Analytics code.

This blog explains what's happening: After enabling HTTPS for a certain VHOST (within MAMP, but that is probably not relevant), Internet Explorer 8 started denying to display any HTTPS enabled page, showing a 403 Forbidden error instead.

The canonical tag started using the WP short URL format instead of the regular format. Two weeks later, I found the bug when I noticed that my URLs were showing weird in the Google index. Instead of the full ...

I have been part of a similar transition on a moderately high traffic website, although with a difference: all of the URLS were changed and no 301 redirects were put in place. I monitored closely the impact on Google rankings for roughly a month, and for most key words, 2-3 positions were gained, although I'm fairly certain that was completely due to better ...

You avoid duplicate content by using the canonical URL and the 301 redirect will transfer most of your PageRank (a small amount is lost in the redirect). Plus thanks to the strength of Stack Overflow's pages in Google I would be more then stunned if you saw any fluctuations in your ...

I know this problem has solved but adding few lines that can help other people to understand this issue in details.
