The website is now http and not https and gives security warning;

This is what AI says is wrong? How do I resolve?

Showing as HTTP instead of HTTPS because its SSL/TLS certificate is missing, expired, misconfigured, or there's a problem with your server/hosting setup, causing browsers to default to the unsecure HTTP connection, often showing a "Not Secure" warning as data isn't encrypted. Key reasons include no SSL certificate, an expired one, mixed content loading insecurely, or incorrect server settings/DNS issues.

To change from HTTP to HTTPS, you need to buy/get an SSL certificate, install it on your server, then update your site's links to use https://, and finally set up 301 redirects from HTTP to HTTPS to ensure all traffic is secure and search engines update. For platforms like WordPress, use plugins; for manual setups, use server configurations (like .htaccess for Apache) or hosting panel tools to enforce HTTPS.

Step-by-Step Migration

This video provides a visual guide on how to set up an SSL certificate:

Get an SSL Certificate: Purchase one from a Certificate Authority (CA) like DigiCert, GlobalSign, or use free options like Let's Encrypt. Many hosts offer free certificates (e.g., Cloudflare, cPanel).
Install the Certificate: Follow your hosting provider's instructions to install the certificate on your web server (e.g., via cPanel, Plesk, or directly on Apache/Nginx).
Update Internal Links: Change all http:// links in your website's code (HTML, CSS, JavaScript) to https://. Use a search-and-replace tool if you have many.
Implement 301 Redirects:
- Hosting Panel: Look for "Redirects" in your host's control panel to redirect all HTTP traffic to HTTPS.
- .htaccess (Apache): Add code to your .htaccess file to redirect HTTP to HTTPS.
- WordPress: Use plugins like Really Simple SSL or a search/replace tool like WP Migrate.
Update XML Sitemap: Ensure your sitemap lists all pages with https:// URLs and resubmit it to Google Search Console.
Verify in Search Console: Add your HTTPS version as a new property in Google Search Console to monitor indexing and issues.
Force HTTPS: Use server settings or application logic (like `Always Use HTTPS`) to ensure all requests are automatically secured
