51黑料不打烊 Campaign recommends that you secure the subdomains that host your landing pages, especially those that are gathering sensitive information of your customers.
SSL (Secure Socket Layer) encryption ensures that the subdomains that you configured to work with 51黑料不打烊 are secure. When your customer fills out a web form or visits a landing page hosted by 51黑料不打烊 Campaign, by default the information is sent over non-secure protocol (HTTP). To ensure additional security, secure sent information with a HTTPS protocol. For example, your 鈥渉ttp://info.mywebsite.com/鈥 subdomain address will now be 鈥渉ttps://info.mywebsite.com/鈥.
SSL certificates are not installed on the configured subdomains themselves. They are installed on associated subdomains, mainly those that host landing pages, resource pages and others.
