If I have a site and I use paypal for credit card payments. Is the connection secure? I know what SSL are used for but since the service is really a re-direct (I am guessing here) to paypal is SSL still needed?

I am new to websites and this sort of thing.

Thank you
 
with paypal checkout and similar services you are right they redirect your clients to secured sites (https://)

but ssl can be handy for the above mentioned reasons aswell as web programing

Cool. Right now I am using free hosting (yola.com but my own domain name) because I am broke and dont have the extra money. Anyways, if I got ssl could I implement it or do I actually need a real website?

Thank you
 
I think ssl is not needed for forms that require names and email addresses, but for forms that require passwords, home addresses, cc numbers, phone numbers and other personal info it's absolutely needed. Your terms and/or privacy policy should also explain what is and isn't secure. That's my opinion.

I don't know for certain, but I'd guess most free hosts don't allow you to install and configure SSL certificates.
 
Too bad there isn't a deal for the UCC SSL's. I recently purchased a 5 year UCC SSL for a client and it was pretty expensive, but I did save 20% with a coupon code.
