Publishing Media Files to the Web

Do you find yourself wanting to quickly publish a media file to the web, so that you can link to it from on online forum, email or web page?

"I need to put up a webpage allowing visitors to download an MP3 file. My current host doesn't allow MP3 files to be downloaded (just my luck) so I need to find a host who will. All I want to do is send a few of my customers to that page to get the download (around 40MB)."

Our large file emailing service, Tonsho provides a great way to do this.  Just email the file to yourself and cut and paste the link where-ever you want.

Make sure that Tonsho is configured not to add a password - login to Tonsho and go to the 'Options Page', 'File Attachments' area and turn the 'Password protect files' check-box off.  To make the file stay there for longer than six months - select your sent file and click on 'Make permanent' on the 'Sent Files' page.

"I spent an entire day trying to find a service that would allow my customers to download files which didn't use my website and which was reliable.  Then I discovered Tonsho.  It was so easy to use, I just emailed the files to myself using Tonsho and then the links to the files were emailed to me.  I just pasted the links into an email to my customers and that was it!  And my customers are thanking me for providing the downloads so quickly and without any hassle!  I will certainly be using Tonsho for all my download requirements in the future and would strongly recommend them."
