Reports show that Yahoo will send out an email this summer to Geocities members that will attempt to get them to sign up for a paid version of hosting.

Attention Current Geocities Users:

Instead of rewarding Yahoo for closing your free web hosting account you should sign up for web hosting with a different web hosting company.   We spoke with the owners of Bluehost and Hostmonster and they agreed to offer current geocities users a special rate on web hosting.  By clicking on the exclusive links below you can get unlimited bandwidth and unlimited disk space for only $3.95 a month! 

Sign up now before Yahoo closes your old site and these exclusive offers will disapear!

Hostmonster $3.95/month for current Geocities users
Bluehost $3.95/month for current Geocities users
