Hi,
I am technically challenged person. I have a website (www.sahasriya.com) on which the LetsEncrypt certificate has expired after 90 days. My website is currently hosted with Godaddy and built using Wordpress. Godaddy is suggesting at purchasing their certificate which is rather expensive.
All my website users complain that they now get a warning message that website is no more secure.
Any help on this is appreciated.

Hi @gdesikan
how did you create that certificate? Do that again.
There is a standard template from Help
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.

Ok, you don’t use an own client, you use the zerossl - client.
Letsencrypt certificates are only 90 days valid, so you have to do that every 60 - 85 days. That’s the limitation.
And your configuration is critical ( https://check-your-website.server-daten.de/?q=sahasriya.com ):
Letsencrypt checks the file in port 80 + /.well-known/acme-challenge.
But checking such a (not existing) file:
Your http + non-www is redirected to http + www + /home/index.php, that can’t work.
Your http + www is redirected to https + www (that’s ok), there is the expected http status 404 - not found.
So check your redirects. A redirect http + /folder/subfolder/filename should redirect to https + /folder/subfolder/filename.
