Transfering all data through SSL?

[nielsbox]

To avoid warning messages and to secure all data including wholesale prices etc.

I think of placing the entire site in /httpsdocs.

We have our own SSL certificate (GEOtrust QuickSSL).

 

Does this affect the speed of the website?

Been there, done that? Please tell?

That was kind of a retorical question, wasn't it? But in what way does it affect speed? Are we talking about a 1% or 50% reduction in speed? Will this cause serious problems? It's not eBay or something. We get around 100 visitors per day.

you can figure out the answer yourself : it depends.

 

on your content and your processing power.

what warning messages are you talking about? if about your site and you have both ssl and non-ssl in same pages and that causes the error, then it is programming.

majority of the people to not see error messages / messages unless it is programmed incorrectly.

While obviously I have no understanding of your business goals, I'd still suggest you factor future traffic increases into your decision. We're just a small-potato site ourselves, but we've still seen significant increases in site traffic (4x increase in bandwidth, 2x number of visits, 5x increase in page views...) in the 10 months since we've opened the store. Just an optimistic suggestion... B)
