+Setting up SSL for EteSync is a breeze by using [Certbot](https://certbot.eff.org/).
+
+### Install Certbot
+First, make sure your server is reachable by HTTP, and that the HTTPS port (443) is also open.
+On your server machine, add the Certbot PPA and install it. (Note: these instructions are for Ubuntu. For other operating systems, visit certbot's site.)
+
+```
+sudo apt-get update
+sudo apt-get install software-properties-common
+sudo add-apt-repository universe
+sudo add-apt-repository ppa:certbot/certbot
+sudo apt-get update
+
+sudo apt-get install certbot python-certbot-nginx
+```
+
+### Run Certbot
+Next, run the following command to automatically have Certbot edit your Nginx configuration to work with SSL.
+
+```
+sudo certbot --nginx
+```
+
+Lastly, confirm that it worked by vising `https://yourdomain.com`.
+
+### Enjoy EteSync :)
+And that's it! 
+Certbot should have installed everything correctly.
+Your SSL certificates should renew automatically after a certain period of time.
+
+
+After adding HTTPS to your server, you're be done. Congrats!
+It might be a good idea to close your HTTP port now if you don't use it for anything else.
