Matt Cutts Want to Make This Part of the Ranking Algorithm

Let me be clear, Matt Cutts, Google’s head of search spam, did not say it is or it will be part of the ranking algorithm. But he did say that he personally would like to see it happen in 2014.

So I guess it would probably make sense to have new sites default to https.

Interesting....

So how much does that cost? I'm lazy

Looks like they are asking for $20 a year on M3 servers.

Hostgator is offering it for free if you have a business account or $40 a year for others. I can't do it because I am still on a shared server. I don't get the money or traffic to jump to a dedicated server.

I can see why this would be good for Google: When checking my emails on web email sites I often get a "site not running from a secure server" warning (I think this is due to the email site pulling adverts for the advertiser's site). Since my two main email accounts are Yahoo mail and Hotmail (Microsoft), blocking non secure sites will give Google a good excuse to block it's two main competitors!

From what I have read, this is a highly unlikely move. SSLs on shared IPs, such has most inexpensive hosting accounts, are a pain in the cock and/or vagina. Until IPV6 is in full swing, there won't be enough dedicated IP addresses to make it practical.

I think it's already part of their algo in some way. For many years people have been suggesting a certificate will increase rankings. However, it could be that the dedicated IP did the trick and not SSL.

Maybe Google wants to start selling SSL services?

I didn't understand anything you said except "pain in my vag" ;-) Then I had to grab mine. Well, as much as one can grab it.

Something is percolating over there. Check out today's post on the official Google blog regarding HTTPS.

Less than 5 months later and now HTTPS is a ranking signal.
