Exclamation Ahhh! My site still isn't secure!

Ok, my site is secure (https) when someone clicks on "Place An Ad;" however, after you pick a category it goes back to being unsecure (http). Does anyone know what I can do about this?

If having my website address would help, please let me know and I'll e-mail it to you.

Thanks,
Phyllis

Why do you want to run your site in https mode?

Doesn't that mean my site is secure??? I'm so confused. I have a SSL certificate from GoDaddy and I don't know how to use it I guess. How can people make secure transactions through my site? Any help would be great!!!

What exactly are you trying to protect with SSL? Someones registration and ad details? 99% of which you make viewable to the public anyway. The only that thats really important to be secure is the payment transaction which is largely a function of the payment gateway and will be secure even if your site isnt.

I would like my credit card transactions to be secure and for my customers to KNOW that it is secure. In the past, I have had a woman who wouldn't put her cc in on our site because it wasn't secure.

Im not sure what payment gateway your using but if memory serves, for paypal as an example, they arent entering there CC on your site, its paypals site, which is secure.

Yes, we do accept PayPal, but we also accept credit cards via Authorize.net. I will e-mail you our website address so maybe you could check it out. I very much appreciate the time you are spending on helping me!
