The very first impression counts, especially online. If your domain name or website leaves any room for doubt, chances are you will not earn your visitor’s trust. In July, the 101domain team focuses on building trust online using the best web resources available.

1. Broken Link Checker

Nothing is permanent online; therefore, it can happen that a link on your website will lead to a place that no longer exists. If you’re running a WordPress page, we’d recommend using a plugin like the free Broken Link Checker to make sure you avoid problems like that.

2. Pure Chat

Communication is key, and adding a live chat to your website is the easiest way to stay in touch with your visitors. Pure Chat comes with powerful features like full customization or chat history, and you can test it for free.

3. Shippo

Shippo doesn’t just offer discounted shipping rates from major carriers, which can help to increase profits. If you are operating an online store that ships physical products, the best rates possible will also improve customer satisfaction.

4. McAfee SECURE

Having a McAfee SECURE certification badge shows your website visitors that the site’s security has been tested and certified by an outside party security brand. It will help your website to stay secure as well as build trust at the same time.

5. SSL Certificates

Last but not least, we want to remind you how important a secure web connection is for building trust. An SSL certificate doesn’t qualify as a classic web resource that we usually share with you, but it is essential for your success. It assures that your customers don’t have to worry about sharing personal data with you.
