Geociities going what will replace it

I was thinking of going to a paid site, but my novel has not finished yet, and I do not have that much time or money to write short stories for cash. I suppose one you get a pay check from a publishing company or an agent, that is once you are a paid published author, then you can go and get a paid site. But not famous yet. I have thought about Bravenet, and had a web ring under them, but well it went when the other free site I had where I had my fan fiction went kerplunk as well.

I've had my paid site for 9 years now but not just for my writing, I'm not published and no where near having a book to publish but hey when I do I have my site already set to go:) I do a ton of things with my site:)

I thought only published writers have paid sites and famous artists, singers, anyone who made money. I will have to look into it. I cannot afford it right now, what with my husband not being well, and the wedding coming up in late Auguust, and saving for other things.

Oh no, anyone that wants to pay can have a web site - pay and just have something you want to share with others. I pay just over $100 a year for my domain and the hosting...

I figure blogging had something to do with it. I moved most of my stuff to Blogger, but I will have to find if people put their fan stories on it.

Well I am not that into freebies deals, and contests. I am more into writing articles about fiction writing, articles about places I have been, writing fiction, and writing fan fiction. Am more of a creative not a sales person want to make money type. I am the type that does what she loves and the money will follow, so you get the idea of what I want a web page for and if I can do that on a blog, I will, but do not know if I can.

You can still write aricles and place them on a blog. I am a very creative person to and not a sales person...not sure where you got the idea I was a sals person. I don't make any money off my blog.

Geocities is not a chat site. It provides free web pages. It might offer a chat service, but it is not essentially a chat site. You heard of Fortune City and Tripod? They offer web pages, and I have a singing and organ playing one on Tripod, and I quite Fortune City years ago. I liked Geocities because it easy to update.

Geocities was one of the first sites that offered free web pages where you did not have to go through your own internet company. At that time, there was also Fortune City, Xoom, and a host of free web sites. The only thing is that if you wanted to write something that could not be considered general - you had to upgrade to a paid web site.

I will have to check into them. I know about Google, but not about the other sites. And I want one that I can upgrade to paid.

It was the best site. I do not know how long it will take, but now I have to find a place where I can put my fan fiction. With my articles, and my travel info. i can use a blog. Why I can even put on my favorite recipes, but the fan fiction, where do I put it? It will get lost on the Fan Fiction Network.
