So you need to use mobile-friendly themes and plugins, optimize the images, use better mobile-friendly fonts and designs, and use better navigation menus.Afterward, make sure to test the site on the mobile to check if it loads, renders, and looks as well as you expected.
#17 Install and Use SSLand HTTPS on Your Website
Security is another significant ranking factor recognized by every search algorithm. One of the best ways to secure your website is by installing an SSLcertificate and using HTTPS protocol. People tend to find websites with these security enforcements more trustworthy because the data transfer between the website and its visitors is encrypted and secured from hackers.
The SSLcertificate can be installed through the web host or a certified authority. Moreover, after installing the SSLand HTTPS, make sure to configure your website so that its URL, along with the resources (like images and scripts), runs over this newly secured protocol.
