Spanish proficiency tests
I am currently learning Spanish online using various available resources. But I want to get a Spanish proficiency certificate to use in my CV as a proof of my Spanish skills once i am done with learning. Is there any online sites that gives you certificate showing your spanish skills taking exams for free or at very low cost? I don't want a real university degree, just anything that's reliable will be fine.

The DELE exams are the only ones I know of which are accepted all over the world and which have real extra value on your CV (more than just stating you can speak spanish). There are proficiency tests of different levels A1,A2,B1,B2,C1,C2. But they can not be taken online.

And they are not cheap: a one time amount 100-200 euro has to be paid, depending on the level of the test.
Cant' say anything about DELE, but I used a Penn Foster one. It's not very expensive. You can also view a Spanish sample lesson there, if you wish. If you need some help with the admission, here's how to write a college admissions essay in Spanish. Hope you find it useful.
