Register your interest: SSL cert for your store with site-wide encryption

Congrats @jessie, yours is the first non-test store to have SSL enabled!

As you can see, it’s as fast as ever and the entire site is being served over SSL, including the checkout: https://hostelshoppe.com/

For those of you on SSL, our search engine marketing team will be available to help you deploy Google Trusted Stores (US) and Google Trusted Shops (UK). If you are not already in touch with the SEM team, please open a ticket on this subject.

We strongly recommend you enable Google’s Universal Analytics: Google Universal Analytics Integration

And the newer version of Google Maps, which uses an API key and asynchronous JavaScript: Product Update: Google Maps API Key

[For the techies among you:

  • You can see in the source that images are delivered via a https URL on our content delivery network (Akamai): https://images-nitrosell-com.akamaized.net/
  • In fact, nearly all stores’ static content is being served from this secure URL;
  • This change also allowed us to increase the TTL on static content to 24 hours, which means browsers will cache it for longer, improving your site’s page speed for return visitors;
  • It also makes use of E-tags, meaning if the content has changed, browsers will see a changed E-tag and will refresh it (ensuring stale content isn’t served).]

As always, if you require further assistance, don’t hesitate to open a ticket with our support team.
