    All you need to get an SSL cert for HTTPS is a domain name you demonstrably own and a credit card. There’s literally no other requirement.

          The register that i bought it from did not provide the right service, i got recommended to use cloudflare to do so.

          If you pardon me the pun, online networking isn’t my domain of expertise.

          I am happy to use local resource to move away from it, some of my servers don’t work well on cloudflare. If you care to explain how.

        You need CloudFlare? Any DNS provider can create an A record for a domain and IP then boom: accessible from any browser as soon as DNS propagates, (usually less than an hour but possibly up to 24hrs). CloudFlare is just a middle man really that offers some security and performance benefits.
