Precisely.

The two most urgent things that old school webmasters need to do is update their sites to be responsive and implement SSL.

Implementing SSL is not difficult and you don't even have to get a certificate, just use Cloudflare.

Mobile is big now and it's getting bigger all the time. Some of my sites have more than 65% of visitors coming on mobile devices. People really need to get their sites updated. I know I still have dozens of legacy sites which aren't mobile friendly, they'll suffer as a result.
