20GB
$0.80 /monthly
Host software packages, video, archives and other large downloads away from your main website, so heavy downloads never slow your site down or use up its resources.
Files are mirrored across several disks with RAID 10 (stripe of mirrors), which keeps the service up when a disk fails and greatly lowers the chance of losing data.
Traffic is not limited on any plan. Your visitors download over a 1 Gbit/s shared network in Helsinki, Finland, a good location for users across Europe and beyond.
Upload and organise files in the cPanel File Manager or over FTP with FileZilla or WinSCP. Serve them from your own domain or a subdomain such as dl.example.com.
Each plan comes with cPanel, so uploading, organising and sharing files takes only a few clicks in the File Manager. For large uploads use FTP accounts with any FTP client; the 4 TB plan also includes SSH access. Free Let's Encrypt SSL keeps your download links on HTTPS, and Apache with Nginx serves files quickly to many visitors at the same time. Backups are not included, so keep a copy of your files elsewhere.
Web hosting is built to run websites: it has databases and the processing power to load pages quickly. File hosting gives you much more space and network capacity for downloads, so many users can download large files at once without slowing your main website down.
You can, but we do not recommend it. A file hosting plan suits static sites that need no database; for a regular website use it alongside your main web hosting.
Yes. You can set up your file hosting on its own domain or on a subdomain of your website, for example dl.example.com, and link to the files from your site.
Use the File Manager in cPanel, or connect over FTP with a program such as FileZilla or WinSCP. FTP is the better choice for many or very large files.
Yes. You can upgrade to a larger plan at any time during your service period; contact Potenting support and we will move your account.
