Should you Move To HTTPS? Google Thinks So!

I think that is the exact opposite of how security works. But once installed and the site is properly configured you should never have an issue with anything. I just wish more were renewable instead of having to get re-issued.

Agreed. Re-issuing is a pain in the ass. Although I agree that HTTPS is a good thing, I do think that it's overkill for a lot of smaller sites and sites that only provide non-sensitive information to the public. Google is using it as a "lightweight" indicator right now but chances are they'll put more weight into it over time. Perhaps SSL will be a growth industry with Google putting its weight behind it.

for best practice, you should keep your website with HTTPS, I have done this practice for my blog, and it's working well.
