Learn how to automatically renew your website's Let's Encrypt SSL certificate without having to lift a finger. Since Let's Encrypt certs expire after 3 month, we will install a cronjob to execute the "certbot renew" command on a weekly basis which will check to see if the SSL certificate needs to be renewed. If so, certbot will automatically renew the cert for you. This tutorial will work on most Apache and Nginx web servers. ⚠️UPDATE⚠️ Please use the code snippet at https://tonyteaches.tech/lets-encrypt-renew-cron/ Not using Let's Encrypt yet?
