If you've gotten the error message in Google's Search Console - HTTPS is invalid and might prevent indexing

Don't panic

While the warning is correct it's just an FYI and not an error.

This started after the upgrade. And Google is changing the warning to be less scary.

What it means is Google has never seen this URL, or has seen it but has not crawled it yet or its crawling the HTTP for the time being.

Search Engine Land has a post that includes an explanation from John Mueller from Google.

Hi, Leo

Thanks for the heads up.

It does sound bad but it won't affect how Google looks at your content.

I got the Google HTTP error tonight when published my post, yet it ranked in the first position on page one of Google.

You're welcome

Thanks for this, I saw 2-page indexing emails from Google this morning for 2 different sites.

Much appreciated.
