Yahoo! Inc. has recently announced that the popular free hosting service
Yahoo! GeoCities is closing
later this year.
New registrations are no more available. As for the existing Web pages – they are going to be deleted by the end of 2009.
The owners of the Web sites will be informed about the details of the procedure this summer.
Yahoo! promises to save all data till the actual closing, and offers to move to their paid Yahoo! Web Hosting.
The company is not going to provide free hosting services any more, therefore many users now have to think about a good alternative.
Closing of GeoCities is really the end of an epoch.
The service was founded about 15 years ago, and was the first mass free hosting and social network that appeared long before Facebook and MySpace. Yahoo! bought GeoCities in 1999 for more than $3bn.
Then the service was at its height, but even now its audience makes up 11.5 visitors/month.
Yahoo! is closing not only GeoCities but also such services as Yahoo! Briefcase, Farechase, My Web, as well as Yahoo Pets, Yahoo Live, Kickstart and Yahoo For Teachers.
