I know Google announced that they will be giving a boost to sites using SSL, but so far I'm not seeing positive benefits:

Maybe it just needs time to stabilize, but for now it seems to be killing my number of impressions in organic search.

OMG, I'm so retarded. :lol: :lol: :lol:

I didn't realize webmaster tools treats the SSL version as a completely different site. That one's up 1000% from last month. :D

I was starting to seriously panic.

I think it has gone live now where they also are giving more weight to sites that are responsive (designed to suit mobile devices as well).

Yes, supposedly that rolled out a couple days ago. Should only affect results if searching from a mobile device thought. They say it won't affect computer based searches.

SSL certificate is really important in SEO ([glow=red]SPAM LINK REMOVED BY ADMIN[/glow]). If Your site having an SSL certificate then the user gets more trust upon your site.

Thanks for the necro-post. But, you'll need to be a lot more active before we'll let you spam a link in here. ;)
