How to Fix the HTTPS “Not Secure” Message in Chrome

Security News for All Website Owners

Google Chrome recently announced that in an upcoming update, they will be placing a “Not secure” label next to every website URL that is not using HTTPS. You can see this label near the browser’s address bar:

What does this mean for you? If your website doesn’t have a secure, encrypted connection for your visitors to use, Google Chrome will notify every visitor that your website is not secure by flagging it in the search bar.

Whether you already have a website or are about to launch one, a dedicated SSL certificate from InMotion Hosting will fix the problem. Your website will be secure and your visitors will see a “Secured” message along with a green padlock:
