🔒 Closed Free ssl certificate for your website using certbot[linux]

[Zerobyte]

Hello there, I will show you how to get free SSL for your websites!
Ok, lets start.

1. Start by updating:
   

   sudo apt-get update -y

   
   
   
2. Now install git (if not installed already):
   

   sudo apt-get install git -y

   
   
   
3. Install CertBot (Also known as Let's Encrypt):
   

   git clone https://github.com/certbot/certbot

   
   
   
4. Change to the directory:
   

   cd certbot

   
   
   
5. After, run the script that you just installed:
   

   ./certbot-auto --help

   
   
   
6. Issuing Certificates:
   
   Note: Make sure the domains you want to issue certificates to are pointed to the external IP of the VPS you are running CertBot on. (Create an A Record)
   
   Now, to generate a certificate and have it automatically installed to an Apache based CMS:
   

   ./certbot-auto --apache -d example.com -d www.example.com -d other.example.net

   *Replace example.com with your domain names*
   
   To generate certificates and manually install them:
   

   ./certbot-auto certonly --standalone --email youremail@example.com -d example.com -d www.example.com -d other.example.net

   
   
   
7. Your certificates can be found at:
   

   /etc/certbot/archive/%domain%

   Replace %domain% with your domain

Final Notes:
Let's encrypt does not support wildcard, or Extended Validation.
Certificates are active for 90 days, then you have to renew them
