If you're pretty confident in your computer/Internet skills the first thing you'll want to do is login to the GeoCities File Manager and edit your index page with one of our three Page Editors. Presently your page says something like "Hi, my name is Mary and I haven't moved in yet". You'll want to edit the index.html file and overwrite it with your own content. Technically, this moves you in and you won't be deleted.

AND FINALLY... We only require two things of our homesteaders: 1. Place a link back to GeoCities on all of your HTML pages. You may customize our logo to fit the design of your homepages but the preferred source code for your pages is (cut and paste): 2. Support our advertising efforts with either the GeoGuide or pop-up ads (a small second browser window will load occasionally with your page). The GeoGuide is actually a pretty cool navigation tool, and it's fully customizable. Find out all about it at:

GeoGuide

If you prefer the pop-ups, do nothing and the pop-ups will appear randomly. To avoid advertising entirely you might want to look into GeoPlus, our premium service, at
