        I cant answer the about CCL certificate, but web hosting can potentially affect google rankings in the sense of load time.

        If your hosting is on poor servers, throtle band width Google does take this into account when ranking websites, as slow websites lead to poor user experience and they want happy user experience.

        Website load time is a higher ranking factor on mobile websites, so the slower to load has the potential to rank lower.

        http://www.quicksprout.com/2012/12/10/how-load-time-affects-google-rankings/

        There are many things you can do on the page to improve load time (and there are many articles out there), but hosting can play a part.

        So in answer to your question a good hosting company can help improve your rankings. CCL certificate I don't know enough about to give you an answer - so I am hoping somebody else can answer that part for you.

          Not sure about CCL but good web hosting defiantly impact the SERP rankings. The problem with bad web hosting is the downtime and if Google crawl your website in the downtime, you probably will witness a dip in rankings.

          Hope this helps!

            Speed of load and downtime as mentioned above can seriously damage your ranking. We moved host a number of years ago and we have never looked back.

            We moved to one of the most expensive hosts but the best up-time and their data centre isn't on a flood plain!!

            Their Internet connections are fast and also duplicated to ensure high up-time. Along with power and sites.

              We currently use godaddy hosting and it is pretty awful.  Does anyone have a recommendation for a very fast web hosting service?
