A few maybe-useful thoughts:
* setting up LE & an auto-renewing cert isn't too hard, and it feels smarter than paying for a cert the old way, but if you're super-busy with everything else, it may not be worth it, yet.
* setting up LE in a rush is bad. You'll make some minor error, you won't double-check in 3 months that yes, the renewal happened, and you will find out that your site has been hacked from your customers or potential customers (except that no, it hasn't been hacked)
* whether you buy a 2 year cert ("now I have 2 years to set up LE") or do set up LE, sign up for SSL cert monitoring. You can have something like DownNotifier.com ping you directly in Slack when expiration is coming up.
