What exactly is Peace of Mind Support, and why does my business need it?
Think of our Peace of Mind Support as an elite digital insurance policy for your website. Securing an SSL certificate or fixing a security loop isn’t a one-time event; web browsers constantly update their security standards, encryption keys expire, and background software glitches can unexpectedly cause your site to go down or flash terrifying “Not Secure” warnings to your customers.
Instead of waiting for an angry client to tell you your website is broken, this ongoing service puts your security on autopilot.
What you get every single month:
- Continuous Surveillance: We actively monitor your site’s security protocols around the clock to catch and patch minor technical hitches before they disrupt your business.
- Instant Renewal Protection: We handle all ongoing certificate renewals, background configurations, and security audits automatically.
- Priority Response: If an unexpected glitch ever occurs, you bypass standard queues and move straight to the front of the line for immediate tactical support.
- Total Transparency: You receive clear quarterly health reports detailing your site’s operational status, and you retain the absolute freedom to cancel or adjust your plan at any time.
In short, it ensures that your website remains safe, compliant, and open for business every single day—without you ever having to lift a finger or look at a line of code.
What methods of payment do you accept?
We accept PayPal. We will invoice you through PayPal and accept payments through them. Don’t worry if you do not have a PayPal account. You can pay with your credit/debit card using PayPal.
How do I securely give you sensitive details such as passwords and other login details ?
To ensure your corporate data assets remain entirely secure, we do not accept passwords via standard email. Once we begin, you will receive a secure, encrypted single-use link to safely transmit your credentials, which will automatically self-destruct the moment it is accessed
I noticed the classic "green padlock" icon is missing from my browser's address bar. Did my website lose its security?
Not at all. As long as the words “Not Secure” do not appear, your website is completely secure.
In recent years, major web browsers like Google Chrome, Apple Safari, and Microsoft Edge quietly phased out the old “green padlock” design. They didn’t do this because security dropped, but because HTTPS encryption has thankfully become the baseline standard for the entire internet. Originally, browsers used a bright green icon to highlight the rare sites that were encrypted. Today, because nearly all legitimate traffic is encrypted, tech companies changed the design to keep interfaces clean.
Depending on the browser your visitors use, the security indicator has been updated to one of two styles:
1. Neutral Grey Padlock: A simple, subtle grey lock icon.
2. “Tune” or “Settings” Icon: Google Chrome recently updated the lock to a neutral settings icon. If a visitor clicks it, it explicitly states: “Connection is secure.”
3. Security Shield: Firefox and a few other browsers display a simple icon of a security shield. When clicked on, the browser will reassure you that you are protected.
The critical takeaway for your business:** If a website loses its security or let’s its certificate expire, browsers won’t just hide a green icon—they will block your homepage entirely with a massive, terrifying red warning screen that says “Your connection is not private.” That is exactly why our “Peace of Mind Support” montly subscription exists. We monitor your hidden background security paths 24/7, catching technical server glitches weeks in advance so your visitors only ever see a flawless, secure entry to your business.
I've heard that free SSL certificates are available. Why should I pay you to set one of these up and for your monthly subscription instead of setting it up monitoring it myself?
You aren’t paying for the certificate itself; you are paying for the relentless, 24/7 monitoring infrastructure and human expertise that keeps it alive.
Automated setups are fantastic until they quietly break. If your web host changes a folder permission, alters a firewall rule, or experiences a brief DNS hiccup on renewal day, the automated token exchange will fail silently. Because security lifecycles are shrinking dramatically across the industry, a single background failure means your site will go dark within weeks.
With our “Peace of Mind” subscription, we look at your site from the outside every single minute. If an automated renewal fails in the background, our team is alerted instantly. We step in and manually clear the technical block weeks before it ever impacts your traffic, your revenue, or your search engine rankings.
Will you need my master web hosting passwords, and will your software slow down my page load speeds?
We only require hosting access during your initial onboarding setup.
To configure, install, and properly route your initial security paths, our team will need temporary access to your web hosting environment. Once that initial setup is complete, we do not need your ongoing passwords to monitor your site. Our monitoring system uses a completely hands-off, cloud-based framework that safely reads your public security data from the outside—exactly like a standard web browser does. Because we don’t install clunky software, scripts, or plugins on your server, there is zero ongoing performance drag on your website. We would only ever request access again in the future if a severe server-level failure occurs and we need to step in and manually fix the glitch for you.
Does having a securely monitored HTTPS connection actually impact my business's Google rankings?
Absolutely. Google and other major search engines treat HTTPS encryption as a mandatory ranking signal. If your security certificate drops or fails, search engines instantly flag the site as unsafe and actively demote your listings to protect searchers.
Furthermore, web browsers are introducing stricter security modes that prevent users from entering unencrypted websites entirely. Keeping your security seamless isn’t just about protecting data; it is a fundamental requirement for maintaining your digital visibility and search traffic.
I run a main business website, but I also have subdomains, such as a blog (blog.mysite.com) and an online store (shop.mysite.com). Do I need a separate subscription for each one?
Not if they are part of the same connected digital ecosystem!
When you secure your primary web address with us, our system is designed to extend a unified security umbrella over your entire setup. This allows our team to map and deploy dedicated protection across your main website alongside your auxiliary channels at the same time. We treat your digital presence as a single connected entity, ensuring that your main home page, blog, and digital storefront are all actively monitored and shielded under your coverage.
(Note: If you operate entirely separate businesses with completely different domain names, each distinct domain requires its own independent monitoring subscription. Additionally, because tracking multiple auxiliary sections requires independent monitoring channels on our dashboard, multi-site setups are covered under our Multi-Site Package.)
If my website has subdomains (like `shop.mywebsite.com` or `blog.mywebsite.com`), does each one need its own security certificate?
Yes, and we structurally isolate them with dedicated certificates for your protection.
While some setups try to bundle an entire digital ecosystem under a single blanket file, our protocol is to issue a completely independent, dedicated security certificate for your main website and every single operational subdomain you run.
We utilize this separate-isolation framework for three critical reasons:
- Targeted Security: Isolating your subdomains ensures that if one area of your hosting environment experiences a localized server glitch or a third-party software conflict (such as an e-commerce plugin error on your shop subdomain), the security mapping for your primary website remains entirely unaffected and online.
- Flawless Automated Renewals: Modern security standards require web encryption to renew frequently in the background. Individual certificates use direct, streamlined validation paths. This allows the server to verify and renew each asset quietly and independently, virtually eliminating the background automated failures common with bulk, bundled setups.
- Precise 24/7 Monitoring: Because each subdomain is given its own distinct security layer, our cloud-based monitoring radar tracks them as unique endpoints. If a technical bottleneck occurs on a specific auxiliary page, our system isolates the exact root cause instantly, allowing us to deploy a fix before your visitors ever notice a disruption.
(Note: Because tracking multiple subdomains requires independent data streams and monitoring endpoints on our security dashboard, multi-site structures are covered under our specialized Multi-Site Package rather than a single standard subscription.)

What exactly is Peace of Mind Support, and why does my business need it?
After we receive your payment and login details for your website, it can take up to 48 hours. You’ll see the interface immediately after installation and that solves about 30% of the requirements, but you won’t be fully compliant until up to 48 hours later when we issue your statement of accessibility that doubles as a certificate of performance.
What methods of payment do you accept?
We accept PayPal. We will invoice you through PayPal and accept payments through them. Don’t worry if you do not have a PayPal account. You can pay with your credit/debit card using PayPal.
What about closed captioning of videos?
Closed captioning requires that your video be hosted on YouTube or Vimeo (another video sharing site similar to YouTube). If your video is not currently on one of those sites, we can set up a free account for you and place your video there. (We could also set up a paid account which gives you more features.)
The videos on our site are hosted on Vimeo. We recommend Vimeo as they are more flexible than YouTube and do not show ads after a video finishes playing. (If you are curious about Vimeo, you can check them out by clicking here.)
Regarding costs, closed captioning is charged separately due to the complex technical requirements. Please contact us with a link to view your video and we shall give you an estimate.
What web accessibility standards does your system conform to?
The three most important ones are WCAG 2.1 (AA Level), ADA Title III, and AODA (Canada). It is also compliant with Section 508 (US government), ACA (US health care), EAA/EN 301 548 (European Union), and IS 568 (Israel).
Can my Accessibility Statement be edited?
Yes. Let us know how you wish it changed and we will take of it in approximately 48 hours.
Can I see an example of a policy statement about website accessibility?
Yes, you can see the one for this website, which represents basic (Level A) ADA and WCAG web accessibility compliance, that we use for this website by clicking here.
You can also view the one used on our sister website, Local Marketing Sense, which reflects full (Level AA) ADA and WCAG compliance by clicking here.
What do you mean by "full" compliance?
Achieving 100% compliance is technically not possible and no service provider can promise this. One major reason for this is that there could be coding errors on your site’s source could which cause our AI (Artificial Intelligence) engines to misidentify or not identify various elements, and this could lead to accessibility holes. We have no ability to change your site’s source code and would not be able to correct for this error.
Thus, “full compliance” is generally considered to be above 90%, but we consistently achieve over 95% compliance. (Please bear in mind that in the vast majority of cases, our system functions perfectly soon after installation.)
I run a main business website, but I also have subdomains, such as a blog (blog.mysite.com) and an online store (shop.mysite.com). Do I need a separate subscription for each one?
Not if they are part of the same digital ecosystem! We utilize advanced Wildcard and Multi-Domain configurations. When you secure your primary domain with us, we can map the security paths to protect your main site alongside your auxiliary subdomains under a unified monitoring shield.
(Note: If you operate entirely separate businesses with different domain names, each distinct domain requires its own active monitoring coverage.)
