Free file hosting...

Post by Brice Manuel »

Does anybody know of a free file hosting service that does not have objectionable ads and allows direct linking?

I have a couple of PB projects soon to be released (just need to finish the docs). Freeware games, aimed at kids and families.

I had considered RapidShare, but obviously the "meet pretty girls" ads are not "family-friendly". I can't afford a paid service, and I need something with a decent amount of bandwidth, around 50GB per month.

I know this has been asked before, but perhaps somebody has some new info to share.

You can go to godaddy.com
and buy a domain and the cheapest hosting plan.

so it will save you all the trouble depending on other hosting services.

hope i helped.

Send me a pm if you are still in need of storage. Bandwidth doesnt matter. Just tell me how much space you need, I can give you a free and advertizing free account.

Hmm, is this legit? I just tried to sign up and when I clicked the verification
link in the e-mail they sent me, I was taken to a web page that said:

"Sorry but the confirmation code and/or user name is/are invalid."

Maybe it's trying to harvest e-mail addresses? After all, the offer sounds
way too good to be true? And their contact e-mail is a GMAIL address?

I didn't bother to test it out, but it saw like a good service because of so many positive reviews..
