| + | |
| − | The monthly query usage of DNS zone is calculated based on the calendar month, not by the created date of the zone. A DNS zone query counter will reset to zero on the 1st of every calendar month. For example, if a DNS zone was created on March 15th, 2018 with a Premium 2M plan,

| − | === How to restore suspended Premium DNS zone ===
| + | |
| − | Once a Premium DNS zone is suspended, a user can do one of the following to restore the zone:
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | * Upgrade to a higher tiered plan to immediately restore the zone, or
| + | |
| − | * Wait for an automated restore at the start of the following month. Note, query counter is always reset at the beginning of each month so all DNS zones that were suspended in the previous month will be automatically restored due to the counter reset.
