ok so i just got into this whole old web thing like a few months ago and honestly webrings and link pages are SO underrated?? like the idea of just stumbling onto someone's cool site because another person thought it was worth sharing is way better than any algorithm. this directory rules, thank you for keeping this alive!!

This directory is so cool!! I remember being 12 and spending entire weekends on my dad's computer making a Sailor Moon fan page in Notepad. I had no idea what I was doing but I figured out tables and marquee tags and felt like a genius :) There's something about hand-coding HTML that just hits different. Every page felt like someone's little corner of the world. So glad people are still keeping that spirit alive ^_^

Hey!! I just finished my first neocities page last week and I'm so excited to find this directory! Quick question though, does anyone else remember those old "click the monkey" banner ads that were on like EVERY site in the late 90s? My dad used to get so mad when I clicked them lol. Anyway this place rules, adding it to my links page tonight!

OH MY GOSH I just found this directory last week and I have literally been clicking through links for HOURS every night!! I just started my Neocities site like a month ago and finding places like this makes me SO happy!! Every link is like opening a little present! Someone's cat page from 2003! A shrine to a PS1 game! I love it all so much!! Thank you for putting this together, it's seriously my favorite thing to browse right now!!!

I pulled this up on the living room TV to show my kids (11 and 8) what websites looked like when I was in college. We spent a whole hour clicking through webrings and personal homepages we found here. My daughter was OBSESSED with a site someone made entirely about their pet gecko, complete with a tiny pixel art gecko cursor. She wants to make her own site now. This directory is such a gift. Thank you for keeping it going!

just started my neocities like two weeks ago and finding this directory is making me so happy. i remember being maybe 10 or 11 and spending hours on my moms computer just clicking through webrings, finding peoples pages about their cats or favorite anime. one guy had a whole shrine to his hamster with like 40 photos and a midi playing in the background. i think about that hamster a lot honestly. anyway this site rules, glad people are still keeping the old web alive

this directory makes my heart so full!! i run a little site dedicated to vintage lamp collecting (yes really lol) and honestly the best part of the old web was that nobody needed a REASON to make a site. you just loved something and you made a page about it. ugly backgrounds, midi music, visitor counters, all of it. it was pure. now everything is so polished and corporate and same-y. i miss when the internet felt like a weird neighborhood where everyone decorated their own house however they wan

oh man i just spent like 2 hours clicking through here and found someones page that was literally just a shrine to their pet hamsters?? like full bios for each one, animated gifs, a memorial section for the ones that passed... i almost cried lol. this is what the internet was SUPPOSED to be. not everything needs to be monetized or have a follower count. just people being weird and sincere. thank you for keeping this directory alive seriously

found this place through a link on somebody's sidebar and im so glad i did!! i spent like an hour just clicking through all these sites. the old web was really something special, everyone just making weird little pages about whatever they loved without worrying if it was "good enough" or if anyone would even see it. just pure creativity for the sake of it. thats what got me making my own site last year. bookmarking this for sure, keep it up!! ❤

This directory is so cool, I've been clicking through links for like an hour now. There's something really satisfying about a page that's just clean HTML and someone's actual personality showing through. No frameworks, no JavaScript bloat, just someone who sat down and typed out their tags by hand. Really makes me miss when that was just how you made a website. Bookmarked!

Webrings and link pages were honestly the best way to find cool stuff online. You actually discovered things by following someone's curated links instead of having an algorithm decide for you.

OH MY GOSH I love this directory so much!! I've been clicking through links for like two hours now and I'm not even close to done!! Every site has so much PERSONALITY, you know?! Like someone actually sat down and hand-picked their background tiles and their little cursor trails and their blinkies!! Modern social media just gives everyone the same boring white box and calls it a profile. No thank you!! I want webrings! I want guestbooks! I want under construction gifs!! The old web let us be ART

oh man this directory is SO my jam!! i miss when the internet felt like walking through a weird neighborhood where everyone decorated their house differently. now everything is the same five apps and everyone posts the same stuff for The Algorithm. back then you'd click a random link and end up on someone's page about their pet lizard or their favorite pasta recipes and it was WONDERFUL. no likes, no followers, just people being weirdos on their own little corner of the web ^_^ keep this alive!!
