Papercheck, an Internet-based editing and proofreading service serving the academic community, standardized on VeriSign® SSL Certificates from the beginning and recently upgraded to Extended Validation (EV) SSL Certificates. In tests, the company found that visitors who see the EV green address bar are 87% more likely to complete the online registration process – the key step in becoming a customer.
