Oh WTF Chrome?! (aka THIS IS NOT WHAT I'M USED TO!)

The biggest change is that as of Google Chrome ver. 68 will label unencrypted websites as NOT SECURE. So if you don't have a ssl certificate and can't use https your site is labeled unsecure.

edit: cheapest ssl certificate goes for around 25$ annualy. edit2 ( if only you have 1 or two sites it's not that bad ) Problem #1 could be to change existing internal links if hardcoded plus you need one more .htacces rule to rewrite http to https. ( but that just one time problem )

Problem #2 Also for some time Google was saying that non https will have lower ranking.

Problem #3 And now Google results instead showing that ex. this site is secure will label only unsecured url's. ex. this site is unsecure.
