I just had to deal with the same issue, only running cPanel. Nothing would tell me that I had to revoke the old certificate, nor how to, had to deal with what sounded like GoDaddy's version of the old piano lesson staple "The Entertainer" for about 10 minutes to get a hold of their support. Luckily the tech was able to diagnose and fix the issue within 5 minutes of conversation. Bloody Nightmare.
I would agree the pain in SSL renew process but instantssl of Comodo provides automated renew process , here is the link http://www.instantssl.com/ssl-certificate-support/server_faq/ssl-certificate-renewals.html
Automated process.. fill in contact info, fill in payment info, recieve verification phone call, recieve finalizing email link. Drop the private and signed public into the right file names and restart the webserver.

The only time we've had to speak with a person was when signing a cert for a company located around the world from us; no problems once we explained that we manage there webstie.
SSL is a commonly-used protocol for managing the security of message transmission on the Internet. SSL or Digital certificates ensure that each website that is used for gathering and transmitting customer information is genuine and guarantees the safety of this information. http://www.bigrock.in/digital-ssl-certificate/index.php
This is a great detailed write up of IIS 7 and ssl. I used SSL.com (http://www.ssl.com/certificates/wildcard/buy) for my certs instead since they were pretty helpful in past experiences. Also I used SSLTools Manager (http://www.ssltools.com/manager) to skip several steps you outlined, but I still had to do several steps manually. cheers!
