Welcome to the Q&A Forum

Hi there, I am setting up a website, where i believe it would substantially benefit users experience if i setup a database of information on artists. I am torn because to feasibly do this correctly, i would have content that is built from multiple sources, but has no real unique content. It would have parts from Wikipedia, parts from other websites etc. All would be sourced of-course. My concern is that if i do this, am i risking in devaluing my website because of this. Is there a way i can handle this without taking a hit?

So we made a big mistake with our website last month.  Without thinking things through, our entire website was switched to using a SSL certificate and https urls on all pages of the site.  I know it is recommended that SSL is only used on sensitive pages, but we have a lead form on all pages. Of course Google is taking some time to adjust to all of our urls changing.  A week later we lost all of our Google search rankings.  It has now been about 3 weeks and our site is showing some signs of recovery, but obviously we'd like a quicker recovery. We have done proper 301 redirects throughout the site, but unfortunately our CMS has been a little buggy creating some other problems to fix along the way. So my main question is, how can we speed up the process?  I do understand that we stand to lose 5-10% value of our old links due to the redirects.  Is there anything else we should be doing to recover quicker though? Also, at this point, would it make any sense to switch back to http urls?  Or would that just delay things further? Thanks!
