Trying to force ssl on sites that do NOT need ssl for any logical reasons does NOT make the internet safer.

It has caused more people to use google analytics though....

Hello everyone! I just did some research and did manage to put it successfully on freespinslista.se.

I see your cert is valid but web browsers classify your page as "non-secure" due to "unsecure" (bah) mixed content. This may "scare" your visitors.
I see on firebug:

Mixed Content: The page at 'https://freespinslista.se/' was loaded over HTTPS, but requested an insecure stylesheet 'http://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Open+Sans%3A400%2C300&ver=1.0'. This request has been blocked; the content must be served over HTTPS.
(index):358 

Mixed Content: The page at 'https://freespinslista.se/' was loaded over HTTPS, but requested an insecure image 'http://certify.gpwa.org/seal/freespinslista.se/'. This content should also be served over HTTPS.

The solution is simple: since both GPWA and, of course, Google fonts run over HTTPS just change in your templates the url of your script from HTTP to HTTPS. Or, just remove the "http:" part. Example:

<img src="//certify.gpwa.org/seal/freespinslista.se/" alt="GPWA Certification" height="30px">

Please, note: not all servers recognize urls matched as "//certify.gpwa.org/seal/". So, the best way is to add simply HTTPS to your stylesheets/images urls.

Cheers!
