I have enabled/activated letsencrypt certificate on my site, but the certificate is showing a shared Cloudflare ssl. What is the advantages of using Cloudflare Dedicated SSL? Is it worth spending $5/m?
(*For performance, security, speed etc)
About what? Unless you need the second-level hosts, a dedicated certificate is really not absolutely necessary.
As for running them in parallel, that should usually work but there were occasionally glitches, so when you enable and disable the dedicated certificate, make sure everything is in order, otherwise contact support straight away.
Dont get me wrong, I am not saying there is not a single use case of a dedicate certificate, however one doesnt need to get one just because it says “dedicated” and comes with a price tag = fancy.
You are absolutely right! If the free ssl can serve its purpose, I can invest my $ in another better things for the site. Thank you for you honest comment.
