Google Cloud DNS pricing and limits
iScoreManaged authoritative DNS on Google's network, billed by the hour per managed zone and by the million queries.
Google Cloud DNS pricing at a glance
Who it suits
An estate already on Google Cloud, where DNS should be another line on the same bill and another resource in the same IAM. Zones are billed by the hour and queries by the million, with no plan to pick and no minimum to clear.
Consider something else if…
You want to know what a month costs without doing arithmetic. A zone priced at $0.000273973 an hour is roughly twenty cents a month, and routing-policy queries cost nearly twice a regular one — both true, neither obvious, and both free elsewhere.

Google Cloud DNS pricing questions
How much does Google Cloud DNS cost?
No minimum and no plan. A managed zone costs $0.000273973 an hour — about $0.20 a month — and queries are $0.40 per million up to a billion, $0.20 above that. No magnitude is recorded because an hourly zone rate is not a monthly plan fee.
