+<p>2018-08-07</p>
+<p>I never had to worry about SSL certificates when I originally hosted my blog through Github Pages, but since switching over to Surge.sh I lost my ability to utilize <code>https</code> protocol.</p>
+<p>Luckily, Cloudflare offers a very simple way to implement SSL on your website - and it&#8217;s free!</p>
+<h3 id="ssl-in-3-easy-steps">SSL in 3 easy steps</h3>
+<ol>
+<li>You will need to have a Cloudflare account - you can setup one here. Be sure to select the &#8216;Free&#8217; pricing plan (unless you want some extras features)</li>
+<li>Follow the process on updating your nameservers to the proper Cloudflare servers and wait for your domain to update the changes. (This can take up to 24 hours)</li>
+<li>From the main Cloudflare dashboard navigate to the Crypto tab. Then under the SSL section, select &#8220;Flexible&#8221; from the dropdown.</li>
+</ol>
+<h3 id="enjoy-your-newly-secure-site">Enjoy your newly secure site</h3>
+<p>That&#8217;s it! Give it a bit of time and soon your website will support <code>https</code> and best of all it costs you nothing!</p>
+<p>I suggest checking out the other interesting features Cloudflare offers while your playing with the dashboard as well. They have a lot of impressive options that can really improve the overall performance of your site &#47; web app.</p>
