Just used Cloudflare for this a month ago. Tried using the service through Bluehost to go SSL and it broke my site and no one could figure out why.

Interesting. Do you know why it broke it?

Sadly no, not definitively. They told me to rewrite my htaccess and I think that was the main reason. I changed it and it didn't work. It took my whole site down. The support team changed more stuff in it and it still didn't work. They couldn't figure out why it wasn't working. It was a very confusing time.
