In addition to the loss of business, while you handle illicit transactions and work to get your site <a href=\"https:\/\/siteuptime.com\/users\/quickcheck.php\">back up and running<\/a>, you&#8217;ll also lose your customers&#8217; trust.<\/p>\n<p>How can you ensure that you have a secure site if you sell jewelry online?<\/p>\n<p>Read on to find out.<\/p>\n<h2>Don&#8217;t Store Customer&#8217;s Credit Card Information<\/h2>\n<p>We know that it&#8217;s convenient to keep all your customers&#8217; payment information on file, but doing so makes it a lot easier for that information to fall into the wrong hands.<\/p>\n<p>When in doubt, don&#8217;t allow your customers to autosave their payment information or even their addresses.<\/p>\n<p>If you feel that this would truly hurt your business, then make sure you&#8217;ve set up a seriously layered site security. This means things like antivirus software, data encryption, constant analysis and logs of web traffic, and more.<\/p>\n<p>Or, you can ask your customers to create their own user accounts, which they can log into every time they want to make a purchase on your jewelry site. Encourage them to use a different password than the one they use for everything and require a number and a special character.<\/p>\n<h2>Use Trusted Platforms<\/h2>\n<p>Another way to ensure you have a secure site on which to sell jewelry?<\/p>\n<p>Make sure that you&#8217;re signing up with a reliable and trusted platform. We know that the platform you choose will influence the look of your site, but looks alone aren&#8217;t enough.<\/p>\n<p>No one will care that your website looks chic and is easy to navigate when their credit card information has been shared online.<\/p>\n<p>Fortunately, a compromise between a secure platform and a beautiful one is possible. Jewelry company <a href=\"https:\/\/1camo.com\">1 Camo<\/a> has a platform that allows their homepage to include a brief video explaining their products and even offers a product search bar at the top.<\/p>\n<p>The platform is also VeriSign secured, and its privacy policy is clearly visible.<\/p>\n<h2>Update Early And Often<\/h2>\n<p>We know that running website and software updates can be a pain &#8212; but doing so is an essential part of having a secure site.<\/p>\n<p>Keep in mind that hackers are evolving right alongside software.<\/p>\n<p>Often, these updates aren&#8217;t just helping your e-commerce jewelry platform to run more smoothly &#8212; they&#8217;re designed to stay one step ahead of hackers.<\/p>\n<p>If you can&#8217;t keep up with filling your orders and updating your software at the same time, then it&#8217;s a good idea to look into <a href=\"https:\/\/siteuptime.com\/examplestats.php\">professional services<\/a> to help.<\/p>\n<h2>Get A More Secure Site Today<\/h2>\n<p>Having a secure site is an essential part of both building your brand and showing your customers that you value their business.<\/p>\n<p>When something goes wrong with your jewelry website, you need to know as soon as possible &#8212; even before your customers do.<\/p>\n<p>That&#8217;s where we come in.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/siteuptime.com\/contact.php\">Get in touch<\/a> with us today to learn how our website monitoring services can help keep your website as sparkling as the jewels you sell.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Are you worried that your jewelry website might be prone to hackers?
