My Site Opendns Issues, Please Help Needed. by Herodutus(m): 9:47pm On Sep 01, 2019
I just created a new WordPress site last 2 weeks. My hosting company at ng.hub8 offered me a free SSL certificate which I have installed properly. The engineers there even helped to force redirect it from http to https. Issue is, sometimes when I want to log into my site, it opens very well with no issue, but in most cases, I do receive this bad site not secured, invalid certificate and openDNS blocked your site due to phishing threat.
I have done everything. My hosting company don't even know how to fix it. The said its my network, but my friends who visit my site also encounters that as well.
Please this is giving me a lot of concern. I tried uninstalling the SSL cert and reinstalling it again, and yet no way.
I know that I have received a lot of help from kind hearted nairalanders before. AT THIS POINT NOW, YOU GUYS ARE MY ONLY HOPE.
help a brother out with some advice . i hanks

Well this might be server issues, the fastest way to get access despite of OpenDNS blocking is to add your domains to the "never block" list at your dashboard. Flush your caches then, and you should be good to go!

Working on WordPress is really easy, it is considered as a well-known CMS. But if you don’t know how much about installing WordPress and working with it then you may encounter various issues and errors. And to get rid of various issues it is recommended to consult the experts to design the user-friendly high quality websites designed in WordPress.

Uninstall the ssl certificate,

Since you are using WordPress, there is installation option for https://www. And https://.. for WordPress installation.

Choose any of the above and install.

Go to your redirect setting and set it to redirect from 9guiders.com to https://www.9guiders.com(that's if you chose https://www. during installation with or without www.

what about the hosting
the hosting is ng.hub8. i installed the SSL certificate myself and i redirected it myself too. if i type http:// and my site name, it redirect me to the https version of it, which means that the site has SSL cet installed and the redirect is working. But at times, it will write openDNS phishing threat. thats the iseu

The error on your website is showing that your website is not secure which means you redirected your website to https link when SSL Certificate is not active on your domain.

You need to contact your host to confirm if the free SSL Certificate was installed for you else login to your cPanel and search for Let's Encrypt SSL Certificate then confirm if it is active.

Uncle... Your site is loading properly from my end. Except the painting time in milliseconds is a bit high. Quote me if you need further help.

My advice: don't contact anybody that tells you to contact him. A forum is meant to render help, not to redirect people to useless sites, or requesting them to call a number where they will get almost zero solution to their troubles.

It simple: go to cloudflare and sign up for a free account, then add your site. Cloudflare will redistribute your content into multiple zones and locations. That will reduce the load on your server, reduce the paint time and will equally increase your site speed, all of which are important for SERP ranking.

If you encounter any problem, don't panic and start doing trial by error, that will create more problem, simply quote me

Personally if it happens again I would recommend you remove the SSL certificate provided by your host provider and go with another one available with wordpress.

You can secure your website using a pluggin. It will change to "https" . Such search for Really simple SSL and install it. Your site will be secure easily.

After doing this don't forget to effect necessary changes in your search console and analytics if you had earlier register the site because changing to SSL means your site is now seen as a new website.

Whats the name of the theme you are using?

Never install Really Simple SSL plugin on a WordPress site which does not have an SSL certificate installed by default. Instead of that, make use of cloudflare flexible SSL, and it equivalent wordpress plugin

Hello guys, the openDNS issue came back again when i thought it wasnt going to come back again. So i had to write a mail to openDNS Cisco whatever, requesting to know why my site was flagged a malicious site. You know what they replied? That my site per say was not flagged, but the ip address where it was hosted. That my hosting site is hosting many malicious sites. How does that even concern me? Well, they said that untill i move my site to a new hosting site, the will never remove my dns from that block list. Guess what, am considering migrating to one of this foreign hosting companies now, though the are quite expensive. What other obtion do i have.
