Traditional http transmits data in plain text without any encryption protection, which makes it easy to be intercepted by hackers and lacks security. However, https adds SSL protocol on the basis of http, which enables encrypted transmission of data, which is equivalent to an upgraded version of http , Is more secure than the http protocol, therefore, more and more websites choose to deploy SSL certificates to implement https encryption.
So how does the website transform from http to https?
1. Apply for an SSL certificate
To implement https encryption on a website, first apply for an SSL certificate. The steps to apply for an SSL certificate are as follows:
CSR file production: Before applying for an SSL certificate, you need to make a CSR file. You can generate the CSR file in our CSR online generation tool, and properly save the generated CSR and Key files, and then provide the CSR to the SSL certificate provider To apply for an SSL certificate.
CA certification application: Submit the CSR to the CA, and the CA organization can issue the certificate only after the CA agency has passed the review. For DVSSL certificates, only the domain name management authority needs to be verified. Generally, it can be issued within 10-30 minutes. In addition to verifying the domain name management authority, OVSSL certificates and EVSSL certificates In addition, the real identity of the website must be strictly reviewed to prove that the applicant is a real legal entity. The CA organization needs to manually verify it before issuing the certificate, which usually takes 3-5 working days.
2. Install the certificate
After receiving the SSL certificate issued by the CA, you can deploy the certificate to the server, and you can consult Huandu customer service to provide you with technical support.
3. Rectify the network link
After the SSL certificate is successfully installed, your server will support https. At this time, all links on the website must be modified to https.
4. The whole station does 301 turn
After the website link is rectified, 301 redirects will be made for the whole site. This will allow Baidu to crawl new links faster and better to replace the old links, and at the same time allow new links to restore weight and rankings more quickly.
5. Tell Baidu to grab the new link and replace the old link
You can use the https authentication function provided by the Baidu search resource platform for authentication, so that Baidu can better crawl and display our https pages.
