      So I am trying to figure out how my google rankings dropped from 3 to 9 This past week.  Could it be the new HTTPS security issue?  My site was created in HTTP not HTTPS.  Is this an easy fix? Can I hire someone on this site to fix this?

        Hi Boodreaux!

        Have you migrated to https? If you havent migrated to https, then you should have that in your immidiate backlog.

        Did you know that last week there was a massive algorithm update? Your site could have been hit.

        Here four of the best articles about that. Grab a cup of coffe and read them so as to understand whether you were hit.

        Google’s August algorithm update strengthens as roll-out continues - Sistrix
        The August 1, 2018 Google Update strongly affected YMYL sites - Marie Haynes

        Hope it helps.
        Best luck.
