In the past few years there’s a strong buzz about “File hosting” over the web & good reasons standing behind it.
File hosting service is in other words - A virtual hard drive with a 24/7 access from any PC that connected to the internet world wide ( including 3G cell phones, Pocket PC & IPhone ).
This amazing service allows you to upload any file you want from every PC that you logged in to.
What it useful for? simple!
* Back up your system and other important files in case of a virus attack or a system crash.
* Upload pictures documents or any other file and share them with your friends, family or coworkers.
* You will never be afraid again of forgetting a CD or disk on key at home because all of your files will be accessible for you - anywhere!
* Upload large files and send them via email.
* It is a must tool for bloggers only because it is the best way to share pictures photos and other files.
Here is a great example for a blog which uses such service for his files - Photos of heaven
O.K now that you get the idea of what file hosting is please don’t jump up on every service provider you see on the net.
In this business there is various providers and it is very difficult to find a reliable free file host.
Why so? because most of the providers managed by teenagers that doesn’t even registered as a legal company in the US.
In addition, they use lots of ad’s to sponsor them selfs. When you’ll need a technical support it’s more likely that no one will answer your call or email.
Very low security. Low storage, download/upload speed and bandwidth.
To conclude, don’t deal with it!
Good providers comes with:
* Ad’s free
* High download/upload speed
* Unlimited bandwidth
* 1G+ of storage
and much more…
I’ll give you two of my favorite : 1.Box.net
- gives you a 14 free trial / ( after the trial you can choose the free 1 GB account - everyone must have one!)
2. Mediafire.com - Have less options then box.net but still can be a great addion to it.
Hopefully this info will be useful for you, have a pleasant file hosting
