My domain is:

That is not surprising. They do not yet have a public cert - well, one that hasn't expired years ago anyway :slight_smile:

Which is why it doesn't seem surprising that the title is "Unsecure website" :slight_smile:

This is really who you should be asking. From your answers, it appears you aren't managing your own server; they're hosting your web services for you. So you should be asking UD to set up HTTPS for your website; it's unlikely you're able to do it yourself.

Are you sure United Domains and/or IP Exchange are hosting your WordPress website? Because if I look at the websites of both companies, those two don't offer website hosting? UD offers domain registrations and IP Exchange offers server space et cetera for what looks like companies.
