Free Homepage Providers
(The following listed providers are ones I've actually used....in no particular order.)


1.  GeoCities (6MB)

    My absolute favorite.  Very easy to use; great for beginners and seasoned webauthors alike.  Lots of features.  Good help desk.  They have their own page editor so you don't need to know HTML.  You can also easily upload your page if you choose to create it on your own without the help of the GeoCities editor.  They also give you a free counter and guestbook for your page as well as a free e-mail account.
2.  FortuneCity (10MB)
    Also a good choice for beginners and experts alike.  10MB is a lot of space!  They also have their own editor so you don't need to know HTML.  You can use their template, or create your own page and upload.  The site had been unreliable in the past, but it has been given a new makeover as well as a tune-up.  However, they are still painfully slow.
3.  OneStop (2MB)
    For webauthors with a little more experience.  Extra easy upload for those using Netscape as their editor.  One drawback:  there's no file manager where you can manipulate your files; at least I wasn't able to find one.
4.  Angelfire (200KB)
    Easy to use, but not nearly enough space for avid web authors.  However, they offer lots of good features and have their own extensive clipart library that you can use.  Uploading feature is a little involved, but not too bad.  Oh, one thing to note:  they monitor every image you upload.
5.  Tripod (11MB)
    Another excellent, very user-friendly service.  Easy one-step uploading if you use Netscape 3.0 or above.  They also have excellent resources.  They also offer free e-mail accounts with your web page account. 
6.  WBS (100KB)
    An excellent choice for beginners.  Extra friendly to use, especially if you're using Netscape 3.0 or above.  Very easy one-step uploading for Netscape users.  They also have their own easy, fill-in-the-blank page creator for those of you who don't have the knowledge or time to create your own.  But not nearly enough space for even novice web authors.  URL is long and complicated.
7.  Freetown (2MB)
    Not my number one choice for one reason:  you must use their fill-in-the-blank editor; they don't allow you to upload files that you create yourself.  Other than that, this is another very user-friendly service.
8.  Xoom (11MB)
    Good service.  They offer a huge free graphics gallery for use on your web page.  Lots of web space.  You can FTP your web pages to their server, or you can use their online editor.
9.  Crosswinds (unlimited space)
    Yes!  FREE UNLIMITED SPACE!!!  This is a new Canadian company.  The only drawback is that they are very very new, so the server is very very slow.  They hope to upgrade to a T1 server soon, so hopefully things will speed up a bit.  You choose from various cities around the world.  Very very promising site!  They are very friendly and very helpful.  I highly recommend this site for the future!
