AWS also offers free SSL certs via the Amazon Certificate Manager. The certs only work with CloudFront, Load balancers and API Gateway though.

One advantage is that they are auto renewing and you don’t have to manage them.

The free SSL certificates via ACM are only available in the US East (Northern Virginia) Region. That has tripped me up before.

That's not quite right. You must provision your CloudFront certificate in us-east-1 because that's where CloudFront is. You can provision ACM certs in any region.

I have ACM certs issued and working in ap-northeast-1 and us-west-2, attached to an ALB.

That is the case for Cloudfront certificates globally. For Loadbalancer or other uses, you should just provision your certs in your own region.
