Monkeys believe in web security and privacy and have been participating in the Reset the Net campaign. We have been encouraging all web site owners to add SSL encryption to their website for security and privacy for their users. An added benefit is that Google is starting to use HTTPS as a ranking signal.
We’ve seen positive results, so we’re starting to use HTTPS as a ranking signal. For now it's only a very lightweight signal—affecting fewer than 1% of global queries, and carrying less weight than other signals such as high-quality content—while we give webmasters time to switch to HTTPS. But over time, we may decide to strengthen it, because we’d like to encourage all website owners to switch from HTTP to HTTPS to keep everyone safe on the web.
Namecheap just launched SwitchToSSL.com, a one-stop site that makes it easy to add SSL encryption to your website for just $1.99 and part of that fee gets donated to Fight for the Future & Reset the Net!
