Google

At Servertastic we have long spoke about how HTTPS not only improves security but also builds trust in your website. Google have now confirmed they are also going to give a ranking boost to sites that have deployed HTTPS.

Google recently announced that it is to double it’s SSL certificates from 1024bit to 2048bit encryption. With that twitter exploded with tweets about the post.

Does HTTPS damage SEO? This is a question we at Servertastic have stumbled across this question many times in social networks and the plethora of forums we are part of. The short answer is no, providing you do it properly.

Google have recently launched a new Page Speed Service. As with most things Google this is currently by invite only but you can request access.

The service looks like a hybrid CDN service that provides additional file optimisation to boost load times.
