One thing you'd have to have in mind is to chose a server for which it
is possible to update the certificate automatically. For some time I
used mini_httpd, which is really minimal footprint, but I had to
update the letsencrypt certificate every three month manually.
Now I switched to nginx and here automatic update of the certificate
works like a charm.
