About
LocalCert provides free .localcert.net subdomains for private networks that need certificates from public certificate authorities such as Let’s Encrypt. The service is used to avoid running a private certificate authority while still issuing publicly trusted TLS certificates for internal hosts.
The offering is aimed at developers and operators who need DNS names for private infrastructure. The page does not describe quota details beyond the free subdomain service itself, so the main documented behavior is the hosted subdomain namespace and its use with public CAs.

Free Tier Value
This free tier is perpetual and has no stated usage cap, so there isn’t a defensible monthly dollar equivalent to compare against a paid plan. It appears to be a straightforward always-free offering with no credit-card friction mentioned, so the practical value is the full ongoing utility of the provided subdomains rather than a metered allowance.
