If you are using BigCommerce, I would recommend taking advantage of their free SSL option:

Hello, I hope you can help me to change the nameservers of my domain: deportecolegial.com
I have tried to do it on my own but after writing the new name for the Primary and Secundary servers, after saving the changes, the new names are switched between them.

Hello Armando0622

What do you mean "The new names are switched between them? Like the order the nameservers appear? If so, that doesn't matter.

Thanks Elyzabeth. Are you familiar with the email that Homestead sent to us about switching our sites to https? I used the link in it to visit the Cloudflare website. I followed the steps including the instruction to change the nameservers: Primary to "molly...", Secundary to "piotr...", and delete all the others. But after saving the changes I see that on my domain status the server 1 shows the "piotr..." and the server 2 shows the "molly..." nameservers.

Yes I am familiar with it. The order of the nameservers do not matter. Our system will automatically reorder them as it wants. Do not worry about that, you can continue with the instructions.

This is because your domain is not registered with us. You would need to contact the company you register your domain through in order to update your nameservers.

Hello, I keep trying to update my Nameservers, I'm having issues. When I select "Submit" after I input the correct nameservers it reverts back to default and won't save the new nameservers.

It looks like this domain has already been submitted for transfer. During the transfer process nameservers cannot be changed. We will need to wait for the transfer to complete prior to making any updates.

Okay, is there anything we can do to expedite?

When I click on this option, I am told that there are technical difficulties:

It appears that our partners are experiencing some technical difficulties, so we are unable to process your request at this time. Please try again later.

How do I get that resolved? It's been this way for a week now and I need to change them for my domain.

How do I point my domain to my new site on Vercel while still using my homestead email?

Hello, 

You would need to point using DNS instead. You should get the DNS (A records, CNAME) from that hosting company and replace the ones for your Homestead site.
