oocities: Geocities Archive Geocities Mirror / The 90s Archive (1990s 2000s nineties) / The Early web
Posted by jpluimers on 2025/05/23
If I ever need old Geocities material then I should check back at oocities and other archival efforts as they have archived a truckload of it and (unlike the the Archive.org geocities arvhive) are indexed by public search engines.
Their archive home page is [Wayback/Archive] Geocities Archive Geocities Mirror / The 90s Archive (1990s 2000s nineties) / The Early web of which I quote a few bits:
- Special Thanks goes to all the editors and webmasters who made this project alive by updating their old links every day
from * geocities.com/*
to *.oocities.com/*- oocities.com/org, geocities.ws, reocities.com, internetarchaeology.org, webcitation.org, deletedcity.net
Adding some domains from Yahoo! GeoCities: Archiving efforts – Wikipedia, these are publicly indexed archival sites that have parts of old Geocities content (part of which might be gone by the time you read this: web sites and their content become increasingly ephemeral):
- oocities.com
- oocities.org
- geocities.ws
- reocities.com
- internetarchaeology.org
- deletedcity.net
- ge.ocities.org
Oocities runs on the profits from small ads next to (not on, so hardly intrusive) limited parts of the archived content, see their [Wayback/Archive] oocities – geocities mirror: FAQ.
The Internet Archive also has a huge Geocities collection, but is not publicly indexed. Links about them:
- Internet Archive: GeoCities Special Collection 2009

Archiving status Saved!, but not yet in Wayback machine
