How do u get traffic
From Google

How did you change and how much did it cost?

Blogger.com offers free SSL and your can switch via the settings tab. But most importantly, you'd need to add your site's new https address as a new property on Google Search Console. While on Analytics you're only required to select the https extension, as old stats remain unchanged.

For selfhosted WordPress you'd have to check with your host provider for SSL activation, most offer the free Let's Encrypt service.

Making the switch shouldn't really affect traffic, it should only filter out junk traffic. Couple with the fact that your http will still work.

Also observed there's now huge reduction in zombie traffic!

@ questechie

You switched using free cloudflare? Or you bought ssl certificate from your domain provider?

I used cloudflare. It's been 4 months traffic keeps reducing

Its glo. On mobile. Not going on chrome but going on opera. I think it's glo's fault.

And are you based in the u.s? I looked up your site and majority traffic is in the u.s and the country is in US too

Domain name is running on Google Domains and registered as US owned, so may be Google prioritized its location as US on search too. I like it anyways, as it brings more sponsored post offers! grin

Good. Your site is registered as U.S on Alexa too. I get sponsored posts offers too. I received via PayPal. How do you receive?
And why is Adsense not on the site?
Re: Share Your Experience Switching From HTTP To HTTPS by Nobody: 11:04am On Mar 20, 2018
Codedrock:

Questechie is a marketing agency that specializes in content marketing, so we don't do banner or AdSense kind of ads, they are intrusive and against better user experience. Besides, we've effectively monetized through sponsored contents and not after AdSense monetization.

And also bro.. I have changed my domain to https via draft.blogger.com thanks.
But whenever I load it on mobile it doesn't add https do I have to add the redirect code to template?

Give it sometime. No need of updating theme except for some static meta information, other than that everything should propagate automatically from Blogger.
