Okay so I switched over to HTTPS by getting the site SSL certified, now what I am wondering is if my backlinks from http://mysite.com will still be handed over to the https://mysite.com. Also alot of directorys and sites do not recognize https before the url so if I get the backlinks with the http://mysite.com in front of it will they count for https://mysite.com. I set the non secure version of my site to redirect permanantly (301) to the https Sorry if this confuses any of you.
