I hope every reason is mentioned, I think that performance is the main reason, but I hope every one to mention what he\she knows about this.

It’s more recommended that you explain every thing, I’m still a starter.

Thanks in advance 🙂

    • It makes pages load slower, at least historically. Nowadays this may not be so relevant.
    • It’s more complex for the server admin to setup and maintain, and perhaps too difficult for the non-professional.
    • It’s costly for small sites to get and regularly renew a valid SSL certificate from the SSL certificate authorities.
    • It’s unnecessary for most of your web browsing.
    • It disables the HTTP_REFERER field, so sites can’t tell where you’ve come from. Good for privacy, bad for web statistics analysis, advertisers and marketing.
    • Edit: forget that you also need a separate IP address for each domain using SSL. This is incompatible with name-based virtual hosting, which is widely used for cheap shared web hosting. This might become a non-issue if/when IPv6 takes off, but it makes it impossible for every domain to have SSL using IPv4.
