google likes ssl sites more. test it. i would recommend to put 25% of your sites on ssl, use for the other 25% incapusla and/or cloudflare. just mix it up
Last time I check SSL is free, provided via https://letsencrypt.org/ I've seen many new hosting adding a cPanel plugin so that you can have it generated inside CPanel for each and every project of yours. You can even install that on a VPS and generate the keys there and add them to cPanel.
Or an easier alternative, CloudFlare provides shared SSL certs, so by having a domain using their NSs you get it.
Even this being free I don't think it's a good idea to use it, not sure how google makes the switch in juice, that's why we use the version with the best links (www or non-www)
Wasted time and money. If the expired domain ran on http instead of https before, the additional redirect (which is necessary, changing from http://www.example.com to https://www.example.com is technically identical to changing from http://www.example.com to http://www.newdomain.com) from http to https just wastes a bit of linkjuice (dampening factor for the 301). Not much, but without advantages, it's pointless anyway.
