Neocities is a commercial web hosting service for static pages. It offers 1 GB of storage space, 200 GB of bandwidth for free sites and no server-side scripting for both paid and free subscriptions. The service's expressed goal is to "revive the support of free web hosting of the now-defunct GeoCities". Neocities was launched in 2013 by Kyle Drake.[1][2] As of March 2025, it hosted more than 1,021,200 sites.[3] The service is powered by an open-source backend provided under the FreeBSD license.[4][5]
