 * I am an inexperienced person just trying to get Jetpack to work with my WordPress
   page which is being hosted by domain.com
    I have Jetpack installed but keep receiving
   this HTTP 409 error.
 * I added the DNS names “ns1-ns3.wordpress.com” in addition to the DNS names already
   there of “ns1-ns3.domain.com” to resolve an unrelated error message.
 * Just deactivated and then reactivated all of the plugins.
 * I don’t know how to resolve this issue after an hour of reading through forums.
   
   Can someone please help me??
 * The page I need help with: _[[log in](https://login.wordpress.org/?redirect_to=https%3A%2F%2Fwordpress.org%2Fsupport%2Ftopic%2Fhttp-409-error-please-help%2F%3Foutput_format%3Dmd&locale=en_US)
   to see the link]_

 * Hi [@shirlinda520](https://wordpress.org/support/users/shirlinda520/)
 * I ran some tests on your site, and it seems that although your domain has a valid
   SSL certificate, it is still possible for one to access your site via HTTP. In
   fact, your visitors and search engines can use either HTTP or HTTPS to access
   your site.
 * This is an issue for search engines, since it often causes confusion and duplicate
   content, but it is also an issue for your site’s communication with WordPress.
   com, as our system does not know whether it should connect to your site via one
   or the other address.
 * To solve this issue, I would recommend that you change your site’s URL to HTTPS(
   you can do so under Settings > General in your dashboard), and then ask your 
   host for help redirecting all traffic from HTTP to HTTPS.
 * If your host is unable to help with that, you can follow the instructions here
   to do so:

 * Once that’s done, try to reconnect your site to WordPress.com once again; that
   should solve your issue.

 * Hi [@marclouis](https://wordpress.org/support/users/marclouis/),
 * It seems like your site isn’t connected to Jetpack at all at the moment.
 * Could you please reconnect it so we can run some more tests on this, please?
 * Let us know when Jetpack is reactivated and connected at your end again.
 * Thanks a lot!
