On April 23, 2009, Yahoo! announced that it would be closing GeoCities, and that it will no longer be accepting new registrations, though the existing GeoCities accounts will remain active until “later this year”.
So, the war of survival came to an end for GeoCities and they lost it completely. But what about the millions of people like me who have their pages on GeoCities. Well they (Yahoo!) are acting generously enough to offer us PAID ($12/month) hosting with the first three months half off! Well, to me they are plotting this to make profit from those millions of potential upgrades to PAID hosting.
But for me there was a alternative and hopefully for you too ( if you have a Geocities account.) Dreamhost are now offering a special offer to the GeoCities users they can sign up a TWO YEARS completely free DreamHost account (including domain registration) ,there is no hidden cost and no need of a credit card.
But for those people who doesn’t have a Geocities account? There are some exciting offers for them too.
