        I did the same about a year ago for my blog without adding the https. I generally would have just changed it then waited about a month, then added the https. With just changing ours it took about a month and the traffic was back up to the level it was at before. About 45 days in the traffic was higher and leveled out. I am guessing you have all of the redirects in place?

          Hi there

          Run through this Web Site Migration Guide and see that everything listed is accounted for.

          I would also run a SEMRush report for the blog.torontovaporizer.ca subdomain and align it against the new subdirectory. You should also do this with Google Webmaster Tools, specifically to the blog.

          From there, I would make sure you create a Webmaster Tools tool account for the new subdomain and see if Google finds any errors or issues.

          Your www variations (https://www.torontovaporizer.ca) are pulling certificate errors as well - make sure your site is configured properly.

          Lastly, I would make sure your sitemap is upto date and properly uploaded to Google and Bing, check your internal links to make sure they are correct, canonical tags are up to date, and then check your blog backlinks in WMT, Majestic, and OSE to see if they are any worth removing or updating.

          Google is pretty fast at updating and indexing, especially if all bases are covered and it can easily find your new URLs.

          Hope this helps! Good luck!
