Is there an SEO (or other) risk from installing an SSL and not (yet) using it?

New Amazon S3 backup option in 11.42 is unaffordable
It pains me to say this, but after waiting so long for WHM to include an easy way to backup to Amazon S3, the implementation in 11.42 is (IMHO) seriously flawed. This is because the "Additional De...
