Does the issuer of the certificate affect the position in search engines?

Question

Search Engine Optimization

Hello.
Is it true that a site with an ssl certificate from Comodo , for example, will rank higher in search results than a site with a certificate from Let's Encrypt ?

Answer 1

Search engines react only to the presence of a certificate or its absence, the one who issued it does not matter.

Answer 2

No.
Unless, of course, we are talking about the same type of certificates. LE only issues DV certificates. If you compare it with a DV certificate from the same Komodo - most likely there will be no difference.
When compared with OV or EV certificate from Komodo, there may be a difference . This thing is very difficult to prove, because you need statistics that are unrealistic to collect if you are not Google. But the price of an EV certificate is biting and painful.

Answer 3

only indirectly
, it is believed that the EV certificate causes more trust among users, maybe it prolongs the time on the site => the love of search engines
is almost impossible to test experimentally

Answer 4

Of course not
. Then letsencrypt would be bent
