Beyond NeoCities

Originally, I was looking for alternatives to GitHub Pages (I’ll mention it too), but eventually found the hosting service this site runs on. I compiled this list for myself but decided to share and continue it. If there are any requests, you can write in the guestbook.

Hosting	Storage	Bandwidth	Notes
Most Similar to NeoCities
NekoWeb	500MB	Effectively unlimited	Created by a former NeoCities user and very similar to it, but with some differences. For example: editable preview; instead of social features, there's only an RSS feed; no file type restrictions; more advanced site search. Users praise its vibe.
Web1.0hosting	100MB, 500MB for community users	Unlimited	As the name suggests, it's suited for websites in 90s-2000s style. There are several technical advantages, including a website builder, hotlinks and publishing in the Yggdrasil network. Recommended for those who want to create a reliable website in Europe, accessible even during blockages.
Tilde.club (Not to be confused with Tilda)	≈3GB		NeoCities for *Nix enthusiasts. No web interface, but offers SSH and FTP access to storage. PHP support. For those interested, there's a whole ~ movement with similar servers, creating a fediverse-like network.
