Free Web-based E-mail

A worth-mentioning feature is that they provides you with a POP account,
ie You can retrieve your e-mail either with your browser or even with
your e-mail client! You can also have NetAddress automatically forward
your mails to multiple accounts.
HotMail
Probably the most popular free e-mail service on the Web. You retrieve

attarctive and friendly.

Free Home Page Hosting

Truepath
The host of this site. I'm proud to be one of them!
GeoCities
The most popular provider of free non-commercial home pages. There are about 40 themed communities (neighborhoods) you can join, according to the theme of your home page. They also offer a free GeoCities Email account to everyone that signs up for a free home page. So far they have about 1 million members.
Tripod
Another Web community providing similar service. Both GeoCities and Tripod provide something extra that the other community lacks. You may want to check out both communities to find which one is more suitable for you.
Angelfire Communications
Another Web community providing similar service.
Phrantic's Trailerpark
Another Web community providing similar service.
Fortunecity
Another Web community providing similar service.

Free Counters
|
Siteflow
They provide you with a very customizable counter to go with
your page. Statistics are provided. The service is free if you remain
under 500 hits a day. However, the reliability is rather low,
it often leads to a broken link on your page.
WebTracker
Similar service to that of Siteflow but is more reliable.
Statistics of visitors are also provided but you can't change
the look of your counter.
|
Free Guestbook
|
Glacier Web
Customizable, reliable, and free. Check it out.
GuestWorld
Formerly known as LPage. (you can tell from their URL)
One of the most well-known guestbook providers. :)
Dreambook
They also provide customizable guestbooks, (they call them "dreambooks")
and you can have more than one guestbook per account!
Toast
An innovative feature of the Toast guestbooks is that
they put the sign and view sites on the same page.
Again the guestbooks are customizable. You can use the backgrounds
they provide you or you can use your own. But response time is
sometimes slow.
