Hello,
So I have a website and it was ranking for my main keyword at 16 with no backlinks.
Recently I added SSL Certificate to my website and changed the url from no www. to www.
Now, I noticed after my ranking is completly gone off the face of the earth so it makes me think it must be the fact that I changed it to www. instead of no www. so I changed it back to the original.

Now my question will this restore rankings after google re-indexes all my links and will it get rid of the ones with www. in them?

If not just looking for a solution to it because I really messed the hell up!
 
And why did you decide to change www to no-www? All your links point to www version so once you changed the URL, it did quite a mess out of your profile. Change it back and wait it out. And hope for the best.
 
carnage it back ... it can't be getting worse.
redirect the one version to the other and hope you get the rankings back

Yes you got it write
 
Hmm that is quite strange. Could have something to do with ssl though. Does it now use https?

I second this. I had the same issue on one of my JV sites before and the ssl fucked up the indexing and serp.
 
Did you 301 everything correctly?

Here is functional code for .htaccess:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} off
RewriteRule (.*) https://%{SERVER_NAME}/$1 [R=301,L]
