If you are looking to get free TLS certs startcom is still in there as I
recall, and unless you plan on doing something out of the ordinary or
that requires the CA to do work (like you want a star cert, a cert with
multiple SANs etc or want to revoke a cert without one of the reasons
listed in their documentation, require an Extended validation server, or
want a code signing cert) it is totally free. https://startssl.com
