Endurance International Takes Steps to Ensure Its Customers Are Prepared to Succeed as Google Moves Toward a More Secure InternetBURLINGTON, Mass., July 27, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- Today Endurance International Group (NASDAQ: EIGI), a leading provider of platform solutions designed to help small and medium-sized businesses succeed online, announced that it is offering free SSL Certificates for customers of its Bluehost, HostGator, Domain.com and iPage brands to ensure customer data and transactions are secure for themselves and their visitors. The offer will help customers enjoy continued success online with the update of Google Chrome 68, which is more security-focused. Beginning earlier this week, Google's updated web browser Chrome 68 alerts users if a site does not use a secure HTTPS connection, making an SSL Certificate – an important aspect of any website – even more critical. Google's updated browser displays a "Not Secure" message in the URL of any website that does not have a secure HTTPS connection, making visitors less likely to engage and reducing visibility in Google search results. "Many of our customers are entrepreneurs, focused on running their businesses, not web developers adept at reacting to the ever-changing world of technology. Endurance is dedicated to helping millions of these small business owners succeed online and our SSL Certificate offer is just another example of providing our customers with the right tools and support to help them grow their businesses," said Suhaib Zaheer, senior vice president and general manager, hosting brands at Endurance. "In this day and age, a secure website is no longer optional and SSL certification is now a 'must-have' for any website, which is why we're proud to offer this to Bluehost, HostGator, Doman.com and iPage customers free of charge in light of Google's browser update." Why Encryption is Critical A simple SSL Certificate can help to protect small businesses by:
Bluehost, HostGator, Domain.com and iPage customers will receive free basic SSL to help ensure their sites are secure, allowing their customers to interact with them with confidence. Paid options are also available for customers looking for additional SSL features, such as warranty and TrustLogo Site Seal to display on their website to show their customers that data is secure.
