One of the reason why i use name dot com for domains as they provide free SSL which only need to be renewed once every year compared to let's encrypt. However, this have one bad side - once it need to be done , i always forget how it is done and where i stored instructions for it, so i will save it here as well to be faster next time when it's renewal time. If anyone also uses name dot com for SSL, you can use it too.

Step 1:
Generate new SSL key with following command:

openssl req -new -newkey rsa:2048 -nodes -keyout server.key -out server.csr

FQDN value must be in format www dot domain dot com

Step 2
Copy value from server.csr into SSL generator of name .
Once certificates are generated, concat Server Certificate and CA Certificates into pem file.
Then replace key file with newly generated key file. Restart nginx and that's it.
