Question

Why do keyword searches almost exclusively show URLs with HTTP instead of HTTPS as results? Does this affect the ranking of the page?

Answer

If the switch from HTTP to HTTPS has recently taken place, it is possible that not all subpages have yet been recorded by Google or that the keyword has not yet been crawled again by XOVI.

This does not result in any ranking-relevant disadvantages.
