Additional notes

  • https://search.google.com/search-console - Google search console URL
  • The SSL certificate is from letsencrypt.
  • From an end user point of view, adding an SSL certificate just means that the site has migrated from http to https (http://kamaraju.xyz/dkhttps://kamaraju.xyz/dk etc.,)
