Links to site disappearing

    Not sure if this is the correct forum but maybe someone can answer this.

    My website used to have over 4k links to it. Now a huge chunk of them were from a couple of blogs - my site was linked from their home pages but those blogs are gone.
    That reduced the number of links to just a few hundred.
    Then back in July my site moved from http to https and the number of links fell dramatically. In fact, as of a few minutes ago I now have just 1 link and that's from a site a I've never even heard of.
    Now I know there are genuine links from a number of reputable websites and these links work fine. However in my Google Console (Webmaster Tools) none of these are showing up which obviously affects my ranking.
    Any ideas why they're not showing?

    I'm assuming you added the https:// version of your site to search console?

    It may also take a few months to start populating this data as its new, you should notice them in the http:// search console version and they should be decreasing here and increasing in https:// search console.

    Cheers, never thought of adding the HTTPS version. I assumed Google would automatically do it or me.
