A free trial isn't the same as "free for low volume / hobby usage". Not sure if that's what the OP is after, but it's what I'm after.

And to head off a couple of popular distortions/digressions:

1. There's a difference between wanting a free hobby tier and believing that I'm owed a free hobby tier.

2. Just because a company should be paid for their work doesn't imply that I'm obligated to use their product.

In this space I think wordpress.com provides a decent free tier, obviously only for wordpress sites, they have the pay for premium features instead of googles usage based policy.

I hate free trials, especially for my site. They get you hooked and then you have to cancel. It's not productive.

They get you hooked, aka proof their worth, and when it’s time to pay they have proven their worth. Or not.

Free trials are just fine like that.
