Site served over HTTPS

Why Google cares

Crawlable, indexable, and properly configured for ad serving. This check is part of that category — mandatory for trust and modern ad serving.

How to fix it

Enable SSL on your host (most provide free Let's Encrypt certificates).

How this affects your readiness score

This check carries a weight of 5 out of 5. A failure here is treated as a critical blocker and is likely to cause AdSense to reject your application outright.
