Forget throwaway social network apps. Let's make the internet fun again. It's time to bring back web surfing!
You own your site
Sites hosted by Neocities are owned by you, not us. And we support custom domains (yoursite.com) for free. This means you always control the content on your site, and you can move it to/from Neocities whenever you want. And of course, all sites still get a subdomain (sitename.neocities.org) for free.
More space, more performance
Neocities now uses distributed, globally-cached web servers in datacenters all over the world to serve your site. It's a advanced system that took us a year to build - and it's ready to serve your site with blazing speed, whether it's your personal home page, or your professional site. Go ahead, put your site on Neocities. We can handle it.
SSL encryption support
Neocities now serves all your content with Snowden-grade SSL cryptography, by default, preventing snoops from seeing what you browse. Until January, Neocities will donate 5% of all Supporter plan proceeds to the Courage Foundation, an international organization that supports those who risk life or liberty to disclose privacy abuses online.
Developer tools
We now have powerful APIs for developers building applications, and support for remote file uploading via command line tools. Using our new WebDAV support, you can mount your site to your computer, just like Dropbox.
Open Source, Open Company, Open Ethics
Neocities is a member of the Open Company Initative, working to help improve trust in tech startups. We publish the code that powers the site, and keep open records for everyone to inspect. And if someone sends a bad takedown request, we fight it. We want to win your trust - not lock you in.
No marketing or advertising, ever
Neocities does not sell your personal data, or put ads on your site. In fact, we're prohibited from doing that in our own Terms of Service. We want to make a living the old fashioned way - by helping you be awesome.
