www.mediafire.com

When you come back from a journey with so many nice pictures to share with your friends while your blog does not support mass volume of upload; when you have some important video clips to show your colleagues or classmates, but your email does not have enough space; when you would like to send your favourite album that can’t be downloaded from the internet to your friends and having trouble moving large files over internet, what would you do? Maybe you will have to shrink your pictures into smaller sizes; carry an annoying portable disc with you; send the album to your friend by mail. Sounds primitive and silly as if internet never existed, right?
If you happen to know www.mediafire.com, these problems would be solved in several minutes. Serving as a free file hosting website, mediafire allows its users to upload unlimited amount of files (maximum 100Mb per file).  There are 4 features that make this website special.
1. You can either create an account or not
Usually, if you would like to upload a file to a website, registration is prerequisite and necessary. And I think, most people must have got really tired of creating accounts for something they would only use for one time, which is both time consuming and is also a waste of resources. However, for users of mediafire, if you are not sure whether you will need it often or just for onetime use, you can use it without creating an account. Simply clicking on ‘upload’ on the homepage of mediafire, you will be able to upload any file smaller than 100 Mb to the internet at a fast speed. After that, you will get a link which you can send to your friends, so that they can download the file you that upload freely, at anytime and any places. In this way, you can share your pictures, video clips and music with your friends no matter how far away you are from each other. Sharing made the happiness double.

Or if you are sure that you will need mediafire a lot, you can create your own account. Then you can manage your files easily. You can create a new folder, tag, move, email, or delete selected items. You can decide if you would like to share the file or just keep it for personal storage or reference; you can also compile your files in your preferable way.

2. NO disturbing items
It’s kind of annoying to encounter a rolling advertisement when browsing some websites. I really hate the experience when I click on unwanted ads by mistake. With no advertisement that would jump out every other second, mediafire is really a clean place that is rare at the time when commercial ads are almost everywhere. 

3. Option to upgrade to be Media-pro user
For people who would like to manipulate mediafire to be a support of their business, application to upgrade from a free user to a media-pro user is possible. This media-pro user entitles you to upload any file that is no larger than 10GB(!!) and you have only to pay 6.97$ per month for the subscription. If you pay for 1 year in one payment, you will get 3 month for free.
Besides, several useful and appealing services would also be available to pro-users. 
a. Direct/Hot Linking enables you to download the file directly by clicking on the link from websites, emails or instant messages without visiting the Media Fire webpage. This function saves the user a lot of time and energy.
b. Redundant Backups, which means that MediaFire will keep another copy of all your data. In this way, hardware failures will not be turned into data loss. If the file is deleted from your account, it will also be automatically deleted from the backup copy.
c. SSL Encrypted Account Management, which is used throughout the internet for sensitive data like credit cards.  With this service,  you can lock your files so that all the files in your mediafire account will be uploaded, edited with absolute secure.
d. Advanced Statistics: it provides you with detailed information about your file download history including referrer information, geography information, unique downloader counts, total transfer counts, and bandwidth usage information. Advanced reports allow you generate your own reports from a set of easy to use filters.

4. Uploads and downloads are unlimited
No matter which type of user you are, unregistered, registered for free or media-pro user, you can upload and download as many files as you want. The only difference is the volume of each file-the media-pro user has much larger maximum file size. Also, if you are a free-user, you can still download the file uploaded by a media-pro user for free, as long as you are authorized to do so, and as long as the file is smaller than 100Mb.

Overall
Mediafire is a relatively clean and convenient website for users to transfer large volume files through internet. It provides reasonable price for outstanding services, and has the potential to be a nice partner of those who would need to move large files through internet a lot.
