About GeoCities.us

GeoCities.us is a community of people who build their own home pages on the World Wide Web. We give every member, called a Homesteader, free space for a personal Web site, easy tools to build it, and a Neighborhood full of people who share the same interests. Today more than three million Homesteaders have made a home with us.

Our mission is simple: to give everyone a voice on the Web. Whether you want to show off your grandchildren, start a fan club, publish your poetry or put your small business online, there's a place for you at GeoCities.us.
