This post is more of a reminder for myself but it might help others, it shows a example of how to setup a good vhost with SSL support that gives a A+ rating with a (100/95/100/100) score.
Example of my website:

Nginx SSL example.

To get your “Public key pin” you can use the command:
$ openssl rsa -in test.ulyaoth.net.key -outform der -pubout | openssl dgst -sha256 -binary | openssl enc -base64
Of course use your own key file.
If anyone has a better way of a more secure way feel free to show me I would like to see more examples or learn more about it.
You can test it yourself on this website: https://www.ssllabs.com/ssltest/index.html
