My experience with Let's Encrypt hasn't been great, but that's not LE's fault. Long story short, don't use Namecheap, at the very least not their shared servers. From their support: "Though we believe increased web security is a good thing, we also think that using certificates from free providers can get more risk and uncertainty into your business. Additionally, we would like to draw your attention to several disadvantages and drawbacks of Let's Encrypt certificates: 1. No OV/EV support or possibility (no possibility to issue a certificate with medium or high assurance and user trust level); 2. Insufficient level of domain validation and the absence of brand validation ( All publicly trusted CAs are flagging the certificate containing IT, financial and other public words, brands etc for additional security checks, which is not applicable for LE.) 3. Short validity period (for LE certificates - only 90 days, for all trusted certificate provides - up to 39 months). Since the nature of shared and reseller hosting implies having a significant number of independent customers' accounts on the same server instance, we cannot put at risk our other clients by enabling not fully secure technology. These and other concerns (for example the fact that ACME-script for Let's Encrypt requires root access and is able to overwrite server configs) make us refrain from supporting Let's Encrypt on our shared servers. We hope for your kind understanding on the matter." ---------- Feel free to reply with other hosts that don't support LE, so I can avoid them (and hopefully others too!)
