Why Is My Weebly Site Showing Not Secure?

Last updated on September 28, 2022 @ 2:56 pm

Weebly is a popular website builder that allows users to create and design their own websites. However, some users have reported that their Weebly site is showing as “not secure”. This can be confusing and frustrating, especially if you’re not sure why it’s happening.

There are a few different reasons why your Weebly site might be showing as not secure. First, it could be because you’re using an outdated version of the Weebly platform.

Weebly regularly updates its platform to ensure that users have the latest security features. If you’re using an older version of Weebly, it’s possible that your site isn’t as secure as it could be.

Another reason why your Weebly site might be showing as not secure is because you’re not using a secure connection (HTTPS). HTTPS is a protocol that encrypts communication between your website and its visitors.

This means that if someone were to intercept the communication, they wouldn’t be able to read it. While HTTPS is not required for all websites, we recommend that you use it if your site contains any sensitive information (like user login details).

PRO TIP: If your Weebly site is showing as “Not Secure,” it means that it is not using a secure SSL connection. This means that any information entered on your site (including passwords and credit card information) could be intercepted by third parties. To protect your visitors’ information, we recommend that you enable SSL on your Weebly site.

If your Weebly site is showing as not secure, there are a few things you can do to fix the issue. First, make sure you’re using the latest version of Weebly.

You can do this by logging into your account and checking the “Updates” tab. If there’s an update available, simply click “Update” and follow the prompts.

Next, check to see if your site is using a secure connection (HTTPS). You can do this by looking at the URL in your browser’s address bar. If it starts with “http://”, then your connection is not secure.

To switch to a secure connection, log into your Weebly account and go to “Settings”. Under “General”, look for the “Secure Connection” setting and set it to “Yes”. Once you’ve saved your changes, your site should now be accessible over a secure connection (HTTPS).

If you’re still seeing the “not secure” message after following these steps, contact Weebly support for further assistance.
