What are the Benefits of SSL for Websites?

SSL or Secure Sockets Layer is a tool (data file) to connect a website to a browser. SSL has a cryptographic key feature, both private key and public key. SSL will also be installed on cPanel. Usually when we buy hosting we will get a website that is already SSL certified.

Basically for protection, many browsers may not load some websites because they don't have the SSL and also to keep bots away and un authorised or suspicious activities
