Perhaps it might be better asked why you would want to use CloudFlare. If you are are looking for DDoS protection, All NFo services already have this.

By "still use the domain on nfo" -- do you mean the default "*.site.nfoservers.com" domains? These subdomains cannot have their name servers changed.

I have a separate domain from godaddy which is connected to cloudflare for SSL. How can i use the same domain on nfo keeping the SSL from cloudflare?

That isn't a good idea. That would only secure the connection between Cloudflare and the user, but it would still leave the connection between us and Cloudflare insecure.

We only support SSL for domains we actually host, so the name servers would need to point to us directly (and only us).

Cloudflare is not necessary for SSL - if you have a domain from GoDaddy, simply add that domain to NFO directly.

As it's been said in this thread several times before, using CloudFlare with NFo's web hosting is not a good idea.
