If it becomes necessary to transfer files not to one specific person, but to a large number of recipients at the same time, the easiest way to do this is by posting them on any sites on the Internet. There are web resources for which the placement of visitors' files is the main function (for example, file storage services) or one of the additional (for example, forums).
Instructions
Step 1
If the file (or files) needs to be distributed to a group of friends with the same interests, you can use any forum. As a rule, they have some specific topic or are divided into sections, each of which is devoted to a specific topic. You need to find a forum whose topic matches the purpose of the files you want to host. Some of the forums require users to register - in this case, fill out the appropriate form and activate your account by following the forum instructions.
Step 2
Create a new topic in the appropriate section of the forum, attach your file (or files) to it and write explanations about their purpose and use in the message text. Attaching files is usually straightforward. For example, on those forums that are built on the very common vBulletin system, the "Attachments Management" button is placed in the "Additional Options" section. By clicking on it, you will open an additional window where you need to click the "Browse" button, find the attached file on your computer and click the "Download" button. After that, you just have to send a message.
Step 3
Another option for placing files on the Internet is to use the services of file storage services ("file sharing"). For example, you can choose https://multiupload.com. This service can place duplicates of your files on eight file hosting services in one download. After you go to the main page of the site, select the services to which the script should send your files. By default, all eight are checked - uncheck the checkboxes of unnecessary file sharing
Step 4
Click the Browse button, locate the file you want to download on your computer, and click Open.
Step 5
Fill in the optional fields of the form, if necessary. In the File description field, you can enter text that will be seen by visitors to the page with links to download the file. The service can send on your behalf a link to the download page to the e-mail address that you specify in the To e-mail field. In the From e-mail field, enter your address - it will be present in the letter as the sender's address.
Step 6
Click the Upload button to start the file upload process. Upon completion, the service will present you with a plate with the name of the file, its size and a link to the download page. This page contains links to duplicates of the downloaded file on each of the marked file hosting services. You can distribute to the recipients of the file both a link to this page and individual links posted on it.
