Hi ALL,
just changed over to https//.www.cocainetestkit.co.uk with the money being in wholesaling. However I am having my links poorly indexed - any suggestions?

When you moved your site to HTTPs, there are a few things that you need to do:
-- make sure you fix all the internal links on your site so that they point to the HTTPs version and not the HTTP version.
-- make sure you set up 301 Permanent Redirects from the old URLs to the new URLs.
-- verify the new HTTPs version of your site in Google Search Console. You should be seeing less pages indexed in the HTTP version and more pages in the HTTPs version of your site.
As long as you set up the proper redirects, you should not generally see any problems or changes in rankings. It will take some time for those new HTTPs URLs to get indexed, but the 301 redirects should take care of that.

When you specify Https to connect to a website, the actual connection requested by the browser is different. That’s something that you need to set up on your site – and you’re quite correct. The HTML doesn’t need to change for that. Instead of using https on only sensitive parts of your site, you may go ahead and use https for your entire site. This does not affect accessibility or performance in any way and it’s a great way to hedge your bets against future Google algorithm changes. Changing the text “http” to “https” in all of your links that point to other parts of your own site is likely the one technical task you’ll need to do yourself. You should set Up 301 Redirects.
