Re: Trustlogo not floating
 

Yeah, works great -- but then you have an U-G-L-Y red triangle in the corner of your store -- that is meaningless to most people, and makes the site owner look like a geek.

I have been asking Comodo for an alternate logo.

Ok, I'll concede that for some stores, and some products, this seal may mean something, but I have yet to find the "Corner of Trust" in use in a fortune 500 type site... and if that's what we aspire to be, why not emulate them?

Or we can load up on meaningless logos and look like the hacks we are trying to copy.

Re: Trustlogo not floating
 

i too think the logo is unpleasant, so i just decided to leave it off

it doesnt go with the colors of my site and stands out like a sore thumb, i figured the yellow bar and lock on the address bar is enough for customers to get the picture

Re: Trustlogo not floating
 

Thanks for the heads up! :)

Re: Trustlogo not floating
 

I like the logo and I cant see anything else that stands out to say secure any better then this red corner logo thats stuck there on every page. And if no-one else has then who prey tell are we copying?

My customers are interested in safety and this provides them some peice of mind, so for me it is the red logo for sure, if the fortune 500's arent using them then even better for me as I dont want to imitate a fortune 500 I want to be my own inovator!

Thanks for the great tutorial - helped me a treat!

Re: Trustlogo not floating
 

I absolutely am convinced that the day we added the logo to our site (as well as the HackerSafe logo) our credibility as well as our bottom line went up - We added both one year ago - at that time I was doing about $2K US per month - we are now doing over 10 times that amount and still growing.... I will admit that I have done a few other things besides that - but when you look at the cost compared to the peace it might provide some wary customer.... it is worth every penny.

I am wondering if I have to purchase a ssl cert from comodo in order to have a comodo trustlogo floating on my site? I have been using thawte cert for some time, Do I have to purchase another ssl from comodo and installed again?

Re: Trustlogo not floating
 

You can put any old logo on your site... but if you're not licenced to use it, you are stealing.

The POINT of a secure cert is to VERIFY the identity of the site and its owner. If you don't own a Comodo cert, then using the logo is meaningless. If a visitor were to hover over the cert or click on it, your site wouldn't be identified as secure, and the visitor would know you're a scam... so are you better off for stealing the image?

The point of the logo is CONFIDENCE... confidence in your site, and confidence in the SSL technology... and the ability of your customer to verify that the place they are giving their private info is indeed your site. The moment you blow that, you might as well be selling out of a pushcart.

Thanks for the info, I am actually only look for answer like YES or No, It is so NICE for you to put so many words in the writing

Re: Trustlogo not floating
 

A yes or no answer doesn't help you learn anything...and you clearly need some education on this topic.

Re: Trustlogo not floating
 

Comodo offers another trust logo besides the ugly red floatie. It doesn't float so you can place it wherever you want. The colors are pretty neutral so it shouldn't clash with most color schemes. See this page from their knowledge base.
