Verification of Certificate SSL

    I received a message from Google Web Master, stating the following:
    Site host name, https://sensationexperience.com, does not match your SSL certificate Subject Name
    April 29, 2014
    We have noticed that the host name of your site, https://sensationexperience.com, does not match any of the “Subject Names” in your SSL certificate, which were:
    •*.wordpress.com
    •wordpress.com
    As a result, many web browsers will block users from accessing your site, or display a security warning message when your site is accessed.

    Recommended action
    •To correct this problem, please get a new SSL certificate by a Certificate Authority (CA) with a “Subject Name” or “Subject Alternative DNS Names” that matches your host name.

    There are two main issues that I am experiencing in trying to resolve this problem.
    1. I am totally blind, and the assistive technology I use sometimes prevents me from accessing certain screens.
    2. Some of the steps require higher technical knowledge to complete the task. I tried looking at how to contact Google about this problem, but i haven’t found any of such at this time.
    I would really appreciate some help here so I can get people to view my site without any problems.

    This SSL notification is nothing you need to worry about. For more information on what this means, please refer to our forums post about this:

    If this is nothing I should worry about, then why do I, when I open the address on my browser, does it say that the certificate for the web site presented was meant for a different web site address? It says that I should either go back or continue. I do not want this security warning or block to come up when people access my site. There must be a way of getting rid of this.

    Are you visiting your site using a address that begins with https (with the final s)? If so, you will see an SSL warning, which is expected behavior. If this is the case, changing the address to http (which is what your site visitors will use) will resolve the issue.
