u can use free DNS providers for dis purpose..

check out the following link...

*www.free-webhosts.com/free-dns-hosting.php

You can see different providers.. and u can choose frm the list

Check out *www.freeservers.com. There are plenty of other free hosting service providers.

What you can do is that host your site for free and transfer all the files from geocities to the new site. If you have regular visitors to geocities site, put a link and message there to forward the visitors to the new site.
