The direct descendant of GeoCities: free hosting for hand-written HTML, with the old web's culture still attached.
Who it is for
For a fan site, a personal page, or anyone who wants the 1999 experience on purpose.
The catch
You write the HTML yourself. In 2026 that mostly means asking an AI to write it with you, which is how my own sites get made, but it is not a visual editor and it never will be.
Where it sits in the stack
Neocities is filed under “Where the site actually lives” in the stack directory. Its label there is the same one at the top of this page: listed, not tested. I have read its pricing and mechanics and have not run a project on it, so this page describes it and stops short of recommending it. That distinction is the whole point of the directory.
What has changed about its pricing
Nothing, as far as this site has recorded. Neocities has no entry in the price change log, which means either its pricing has held since this site started checking or nobody here has re-read it since the figure above was taken. The log distinguishes those two cases deliberately, and a tool with no entry is the weaker of them.
The alternatives in the same slot
These do the same job and sit in the same section of the directory.
- Netlify — i run this, has a free tier
- Cloudflare Pages — listed, not tested, has a free tier
- GitHub Pages — listed, not tested, has a free tier
The whole stack, filterable, with the catch stated on every entry.
