It depends on the size of the cluster. If it's just a little blog and you just want it to be as cheap as possible, but still using K8s just for fun, it will cost you around $4/month on GCP (1 f1-micro node).

> 1 f1-micro node

That only has 600MB of memory and the minimum memory requirements for a master node is 2GB[1].

On GKE, the master nodes are provisioned behind-the-scenes. You get one free zonal master.

The f1-micro would be the worker node. It's still a bit of a squeeze, because GKE has system workloads that need to run on user nodes.

Master nodes are not billed by GKE, only worker one. But micro node is not going to work - all memory will be eaten by k8s services.
