A while ago we posted our advice on whether or not you should be implementing SSL on your server for SEO reasons. The nutshell answer being don’t panic over SEO and SSL.
Another reason for not doing anything right now is that there’s evidence to suggest that HTTP Referrer information is not being passed on through links. So we’d like to put that to the test.
All you have to do is click on the link below; that’s it. That’s our own HTTPS referrer linking to a non-secure page on a website that we’re using for testing purposes.
Please only click on this link from the actual page on our server though. If you’re reading this elsewhere (for example in an RSS reader/service), please click on this link first to open this post in your browser, then click on the link below.
We’ll let you know what we find.
