I am not trying to be difficult, but the link you provided supports everything I said -- namely:
1. HTTPS just means “HTTP with SSL.” Just as “http://” means
“this is a website,” seeing “https://” means “this is a website,
and it’s using SSL to encrypt data and authenticate the website.
2. CERTIFICATES
A Certificate is a document that your website shows a browser to proclaim its identity. It
“certifies” that the website is who it says it is.
Where did I say something different?
Cheers,
