A localhost is a website installed and then used on the same computer. 

In [techie] talk   
  " A localhost is a Internet Protocol loopback device which can be used by 
    TCP/IP applications  to talk to themselves."

For example after installing one of Moodle's complete install packages on a Windows machine, the user is instructed to open up a web browser and type "localhost" in the address bar.
