As part of our ethos to be a leading photography studio offering not only high quality photography services & products, we are also one of the first photography studios in the UK to offer a fully secure & encrypted website.
For a secure site, there must be the padlock icon followed by https (as above). So what does that mean for you? It means that when you are on our website, you have industry-leading security HTTPS encryption by default.
This week Google announced HTTPS as a ranking signal. This means that websites with HPPTS will carry more weight in rankings compared to other non-HTTPS websites. A few months ago at Google I/O, they called for ‘HTTPS everywhere’ on the web, which meant that Google wants to make the internet a much more secure place.
Over the last few months, Google have been running tests taking into account whether websites use secure, encrypted connections as a signal in their search ranking algorithms. Google are now starting to use HTTPS as a ranking signal.
Usability
User experience & usability is extremely important when someone is on a website. We’ve worked extremely hard over the last 18 months to improve our website and give you the best possible user experience.
We’re delighted to say that our site scored 99/100 in Google’s Page Speed Tool (www.bbc.co.uk scored 96/100 !!)
You may also test our website for secure certification.
We hope this gives you extra confidence when using our website for browsing and for online transactions.
