My sites redirect to many times

[luckyajidoku]

I added my site: [studyinnaija](https://www.studyinnaija.com) to CloudFare and for some hours it worked as supposed, but stopped working after a while. Anytime I try visiting it, I get this error: “www.studyinnaija.com redirected you too many times.” Help, please.

2. The link is in the lower right corner of that page.
3. Give it five minutes to take effect, then make sure site is working as expected with HTTPS without any error
4. Check with your hosting provider / cPanel AutoSSL / Let’s Encrypt / Certbot / ACME and renew it in case if needed
5. Only then, when your website responds over HTTPS, you should un-pause Cloudflare and double-check your SSL/TLS setting to make sure it’s Full (Strict).

Here is a way to re-check if you correctly setup the SSL for your domain with Cloudflare:
