Does HTTPS affect google ranking?

[neymarsport]

Hi every body,

I have change my domain from HTTP to HTTPS, could i ask experts here for "does it affect my ranking", because i have seen some signals that my ranking is going down these day. I have to figure if google continue to index my website HTTPS or not.

What i have to do when i change from http to https, do my backlinks still connect to my site? (i push backlink in http type)

Thank you for getting your support.

Yes Google announced HTTPS as a ranking signal, from top 10 results you will find approx six with https.

Thank you for your response,

Do i need to add https format into Google Search Console?

Yes you have to resubmit your website to search consol.

HTTPS isn't a huge ranking factor for search engines right now, although it might have a huge impact later. Google has incentivized moving to HTTPS. ... Bing has publicly announced that it has no plans to give websites with HTTPS a ranking push.

Google announced https as a ranking factor. Previously it is not a ranking factor. You can use http or https. But due to security reason, https becomes a ranking factor. It affects a little. But most important in terms of security. So start using https in place of http.

Google now uses HTTPS as a ranking signal. Data analysis has shown that HTTPS websites have a higher advantage of ranking over HTTP links, so switching to HTTPS will benefit any website, whether or not confidential information is involved.

yes, https just boost up in ranking phenomena. Google give priority for that site which is secured by SSL.

HTTPS or a website that has a secure socket layer(SSL) certificate is definitely more preferred by google as it assures security of the users especially in case of e commerce websites where the users have to submit their personal details. Google prioritizes its users security.
If you are experiencing a downfall in your website ranking then there can be other reasons for that. You also ned not worry about the backlinks from the old address as google counts collective signals from inbound links pointing to both the versions that is http and https of the website.
