  Stephen McConville: You need to setup a redirect from the http to https to force all traffic to secure

  Jason Knott: Stephen McConville ok how do I do that.....lol
• 
  Stephen McConville: Jason Knott I can`t explain it in a Facebook post mate. How it`s done depends on what software your site is built with etc... It`s better to find someone to pay to do it

  Daniel Fonda: Considering you probably dont have development knowledge Id say your best bet is to use really simple ssl plugin and follow instructions.
  (Gonna also asume you use WP)

  Jason Knott: Daniel Fonda I use xara web designer...if there is code to imbed I can do that. I would just need to know what that code is.. I will look up a ssl plugin.....thanks

  Jason Knott: Daniel Fonda through directnic
