Essentials
Domain name registration, SSL and website hosting
Domain name registration
Without a domain name, aka your website address, your website won’t work.
You can register multiple domains or just one, but this is one of three essential ingredients to getting your business online (the others are hosting, and of course, your website).

SSL Certificate
The “s” in https:// stands for secure (SSL = Secure Socket Layer). You’ll see a little green padlock in the address bar to indicate that the website you’re looking at is using a protected, encrypted connection (think your bank website).
SSL is near-standard and is important for all websites. In fact some sites – an online store that accepts payments within for example – won’t work without it. Protect your visitors’ sensitive information and improve SEO … yes, Google favours sites that have SSL.
This is generally included in most web hosting packages, but if you need more, an additional layer of protection may be needed. We’ll need to discuss your requirements to enable me to provide an appropriate quote.
