Please help me to find bug and make a ssl certificate

Please fill out the fields below so we can help you better. Note: you must provide your domain name to get help. Domain names for issued certificates are all made public in Certificate Transparency logs (e.g. crt.sh | example.com), so withholding your domain name here does not increase secrecy, but only makes it harder for us to provide help.

My domain is: www.thehomeofmyown.com

I ran this command:# certbot --nginx --redirect -d www.thehomeofmyown.com -d example.com -m admin@example.com --agree-tos --no-eff-email
It produced this output:Saving debug log to /var/log/letsencrypt/letsencrypt.log
Requesting a certificate for www.thehomeofmyown.com and thehomeofmyown.com

Certbot failed to authenticate some domains (authenticator: nginx). The Certificate Authority reported these problems:
Domain: www.thehomeofmyown.com
Type: dns
Detail: DNS problem: NXDOMAIN looking up A for www.thehomeofmyown.com - check that a DNS record exists for this domain

Hint: The Certificate Authority failed to verify the temporary nginx configuration changes made by Certbot. Ensure the listed domains point to this nginx server and that it is accessible from the internet.

Some challenges have failed.
Ask for help or search for solutions at https://community.letsencrypt.org. See the logfile /var/log/letsencrypt/letsencrypt.log or re-run Certbot with -v for more details.

My web server is (include version): WordPress Server 104.207.130.242 WordPress on Ubuntu 20.04 x64

The operating system my web server runs on is (include version): Ubuntu 20.04 x64

My hosting provider, if applicable, is: Vultr

I can login to a root shell on my machine (yes or no, or I don't know): i don't know

I'm using a control panel to manage my site (no, or provide the name and version of the control panel): Terminal ?

The version of my client is (e.g. output of certbot --version or certbot-auto --version if you're using Certbot): ?

This sounds like a pretty clear error message--you need to set up a DNS record for that domain name.
