GEOCITIES--EASY TO USE

by Leslieandra , Mar 05 '00
Pros: SIMPLE TO USE
Cons: CAN BE SLOW TO LOAD
I have used Yahoo Geocities PageBuilder program to do several websites and have found it easy to use.

Yahoo! Geocities Is Still The Best In My Book

by KimmyKim , Jan 29 '00
Pros: Lots of space, ease of use, short URL, FTP upload
Cons: Can't think of any

Sorry, GeoCities has Closed

What happened to the old geocities???

by reddogg911 , Jan 01 '00
Pros: free, kinda idiotproof (if u have a PhD)
Cons: making sense of what they tried to do, how things r set up
A long time ago, back when I didn't have much of a life to speak of, I signed up for geocities. This is way before they hit that "one million members" thing. It was quick, easy, and most importantly, FREE. Well, its still free, but for some...

Lesser of the evils

by sdgard , Mar 23 '01
Pros: Short URL, FTP capability, better track record than other freebie sites
Cons: Stay AWAY from GeoPlus
This is a hard review to write because I want to recommend Geocities in some ways, and tell you to avoid them like the plague in others!
I started out on Geocities and even still house some sites there. Of the free sites out there, they seem to...

Geocities for websites

Pros: 15MB, small banner
Cons: Crashes often
I have had several geocities pages and I can say that I have watched them grow. I used to have a site back when they offered an unheard of 1MB of space. The sites had long names that were called "neighborhoods." While I don't like their easy editor...

Oh Where Oh Where has my Geocities gone?

by wavsrus , May 06 '00
Pros: many sites available, recognition
Cons: hard to use, long addresses, to many people
I am a long time web builder, I was building websites when templates were not available and you either learned on your own or through a trusty handbook. Then along came these sites that "build" the website for you...NOT.

Cons: still no contact number '1-800-company'
Originally I wrote:

Previous to my experience (and coincidentally the Yahoo/Geocities merger) I had no problem with Geocities. It was my 1st experience with making webpages and quite frankly you couldn't beat the price. As the cliche goes 'you...

by VictoriaAM , Feb 05 '00
Pros: Easy to use.
Cons: non so far.
Talk about a strange combination! I was with Yahoo and Geocities before

after their merger I tried them again and to no avail, I just got even
more fustrated at them....
