About
Zonomi is a DNS hosting service that lets users manage DNS zones through a web control panel and HTTP API. It supports common record types including A, AAAA, MX, CNAME, PTR, SRV, and TXT, and includes dynamic DNS updates, low TTL settings, wildcard records, round robin DNS, DNSSEC, and apex/root domain aliases.
The free offering includes 1 DNS zone, up to 20 DNS records, and up to 1 million DNS queries per month. The pricing page says new accounts are provisioned on a trial account first, with no cost until the account is activated later, so the hosted service combines a perpetual free allowance with an onboarding trial flow.

Free Tier Value
This free tier is a capped trial-style offer: it gives one DNS zone, up to 20 records, and up to 1 million queries per month, but only for a registered domain and only until the account is activated. The cheapest paid option starts at about $1/month equivalent, so the free tier is worth roughly that amount in practical terms, with the main friction being that a credit card is required to fully activate the account.
What's included in the free tier
- DNS hosting on a trial account for your own registered domain.
- No free subdomains or domain registration services included.
- Account can be canceled at any time before activation.
- No cost until the account is fully activated.
