Google say I need an SSL

[The Baby Studio]

I got this email today. The sending address was wmt-noreply@google.com so I am guessing its real?

I use Actinic payments so I think I dont need an SSL, but if search engines think I do it could be restricting traffic.

Has anyone else come across this. Any advice appreciated.

Thanks

Dear Webmaster,


Your site, https://www.thebabystudio.co.uk/, uses an SSL certificate which
is not recognized by web browsers. This will cause many web browsers to
block users from accessing your site, or to display a security warning
message when your site is accessed.


To correct this problem, please get a new SSL certificate from a
Certificate Authority (CA) that is trusted by web browsers.

Thanks,

You do not need ssl. You do have one though and when you click on the link it says there is a problem with it. Unless you want it for some other reason I would remove it.

Thanks Duncan,

I dont recall every trying to obtain one. I use Actinic Payments so thought I didint need one.

Where will it be if I look for it on the site?

Many thanks

Go to network settings and remove the tick box that says use SSL, then upload the site.

Its not ticked in Business Settings, so the SSL tab is not there in Network Setup.

The SSL is nothing to do with Actinic but associated with your hosting.

Think its to do with your plesk control panel providing a secure method of access its UI.
