No, as the end user connects to cloudflare via https, but cloudflare gets the data from your site via http.

So if I wanted to use Cloudflare for the ssl then it would work correct? I don't run ads on my forum so that is not a big deal. I had it setup once but then switched back after a week. The reason I was asking is I see that Google favors sites using https these days. Just wondering if there was a slow down switching to it. But I see that it does support spdy. Anyways thanks for the info Matt .

1 year later is it still not worth it?
does adsense not support https?
this year the ad company i use started supporting https. I've heard it could rank your site higher if you use https. but i've also heard https uses alot of bandwidth and resources.
So i'm not sure if it's worth migrating. I'm too scared to try

The Advantages Of using HTTPS
Clearly, the real advantage of encoding associations with and from a site is that they can't read by any outsider. It will never again be workable for anybody to obstacle information streaming amongst you and your clients from the air. In any case, various different advantages join SSL.
Character Verification
An endorsement ensures the data a program is getting begins at the normal space. It's an assurance that when a client sends touchy information, it's being sent to the correct place, and not to a pernicious outsider.
Information Integrity
On the off chance that information is sent free, it's feasible for an outsider to sit between the server and the program and read everything, But, far and away more terrible, in the event that they can read it, they can transform it. By capturing an association, a programmer can perceive what the program is asking for and the site is sending; they can block the information sent by the site and adjust it before sending it on to the program — the client could never know.
HTTPS associations make this kind of man-in-the-center assault substantially more hard to pull off.
Website design enhancement
As I specified before, Google needs to send its clients to secure locales and to that end has made HTTPS associations a positioning sign. That implies, all else being equivalent — which it never is — a site with HTTPS will rank higher than a site without.
Note that HTTPS is a powerless positioning sign. Right now, executing SSL will minimally affect look positions. The brilliant substance is more essential.
Trust factor:
At last, that green patch shows that you consider security important and gives clients certainty.
Regardless of whether you actualize HTTPS on your site involves individual or business decision. There is no genuine drawback, however for a considerable measure of destinations — especially individual online journals — it's not entirely important from a data security viewpoint, but rather it shows up Google contrasts on that point. Website admins ought to weigh up the points of interest and detriments we've talked about in this article and go to their own educated choice.
