new blog post: Comodo continues to be the no. 1. digital certificate authority

Since Symantec was dethroned by Comodo in February 2015, Comodo has continued to further expand its market share leadership, according to the latest data from w3techs.com. This significant market share move was even predicted by w3techs.com in the February data when it stated back then "Comodo’s market share is likely to grow further, as it is particularly popular among new sites.”

According to w3techs.com’s published December data, Comodo now has an SSL certificate authority market share of 40.7% (as of Jan 1). For 11 consecutive months now, Comodo has maintained its number one market share ranking since taking it from Symantec in mid February 2015.
