Easiest SSL Ever, Now Included Automatically with Every Paid Plan
Cloudflare has made significant improvements to its SSL service, making it now automatically included with every paid account at no additional cost. This development simplifies the process of getting an SSL certificate properly installed on web servers and eliminates the need for users to pick subdomains or wait for vetting emails. The new "flexible" SSL mode encrypts traffic from visitors to Cloudflare's network, protecting them from common types of eavesdropping and attacks. Paid Cloudflare users are automatically set up with this feature, allowing them to enable SSL on their sites easily.
