 ## getting/renewing a certificate
 
-First, you need to generate an user account key for Let's Encrypt.
-This is the key that you use to register with Let's Encrypt. If you
-already have user account key with Let's Encrypt, you can skip this
-step.
+First, generate an user account key for Let's Encrypt:
 
 ```sh
 openssl genrsa -aes256 4096 > user.key
 openssl rsa -in user.key -pubout > user.pub
 ```
 
-Second, you need to generate the domain key and a certificate request.
-This is the key that you will get signed for free for your domain (replace
-"example.com" with the domain you own). If you already have a domain key
-and CSR for your domain, you can skip this step.
+Next, generate the domain key and a certificate request:
 
 ```sh
 # Generate domain key
 openssl genrsa -aes256 -out domain.key 4096
 
-# Generate CSR
+# Generate CSR for a single domain
 openssl req -new -sha256 -key domain.key -out domain.csr
 
-# Or Generate CSR with multiple domains
+# Or Generate CSR for multiple domains
 openssl req -new -sha256 -key domain.key -subj "/" -addext "subjectAltName = DNS:example.com, DNS:www.example.com" > domain.csr
 ```
 
-Third, you run the script using python and passing in the path to your user
-account private key, email address, and the domain CSR. The paths can be
-relative or absolute.
+Lastly, run `acmens`:
 
 ```sh
 acmens --account-key user.key --email mail@example.com --csr domain.csr > signed.crt
 ```
-
-When you run the script, it will:
-
- - Register you with Let's Encrypt using the email address.
-
- - If the `user.key` is encrypted, openssl will ask for the passphrase every time
-   the private key is used for signing requests or data.
-
- - Ask you to provision a HTTP resource on your web server for the domain for
-   the ACME HTTP challenge.
-
- - Will write the certificate to `signed.crt` if ACME HTTP challenge is
-   successful.

 ## dns challenge
 
 If you want to use the DNS challenge type provide it using the `--challenge` flag.

 ## revoking a certificate
 
-First, you will need to the user account key for Let's Encrypt that was used
-when the certificate was signed.
-
-Second, you will need the PEM encoded signed certificate that was produced by
-`acmens`.
-
-Third, you run the script using python and passing in the path to your user
-account key and the signed domain certificate. The paths can be relative or
-absolute.
+This:
 
 ```sh
-acmens --revoke -k user.key --crt domain.crt
+acmens --revoke -k user.key --crt signed.crt
 ```
