As for the websites that allow you to transfer files online, there has always been news and, above all, the need has arisen to upload files anonymously, not to hide who knows what but to avoid boring registrations to sites that require logins and password for uploading files.

In the search for the best site for uploading and sharing files, the ideal requirements are:
- That they are obviously free.
- With as few limits as possible, both from the point of view of the size of the single file uploaded, and from that of the overall size of all the files that can be uploaded by a single user.
- The absence of bandwidth limits, ie that the download of the uploaded file is not limited in time and number of times.
- That immediate and unregistered file upload is allowed
- That a hotlink is provided, i.e. a web address, a univocal and unexpired URL that can be disclosed to anyone you want in order to share a file or in order to use it on a website, forum or blog.
- A fair speed to upload files (upload) and then download them (download).
No file sharing site has all these features even if someone approaches it.
Microsoft's Onedrive, which I've always talked about well and that I defined in an article as the best site to upload files to the internet, has removed the hotlinks making them dynamic and therefore no longer usable.
We could therefore say that, at the moment, the best sites for file sharing, without registration and in an immediate and anonymous way are:
1) DropBox allows you to upload 2 GB of expandable files for free, which can be used online from any PC and via mobile and smartphone applications.
Dropbox files have a hotlink that allows you to use files uploaded to websites.
2) OpenDrive (ex SigMirror) has a limit of 5 GB of maximum size of the uploaded files, allows 1 GB of bandwidth per day, which is very useful for blogs and websites that want to have hosting for js, xml, swf, ico files and so on because it has hotlinks .
3) File Dropper, the fastest and simplest of file sharing services, not only for download and upload but also for the absolutely essential interface.
You can upload and upload a file up to 5 GB in size and receive, via download, the link to turn to whoever we want to download the file.
This link is a hotlink and the file is downloaded immediately without having to press confirmation keys again.
Fli Dropper therefore becomes ideal for loading a site's files as if it were a virtually infinite database.
By pressing the "files" button you can browse the entire library of files uploaded anonymously by all those who have used the service.
Probably this site is the only one that allows you to upload a file online as large as the entire DVD of a video game can be.
Obviously, you cannot, in theory, upload copyrighted files.
There is no visible library of files for everyone, each file has its own link which is not a hotlink (in the sense that the internet address of the file leads to a page where you have to press the download button and insert a code safety).
Very similar to Mediafire only that, in this case, the file disappears from the site if it is no longer downloaded for some time and therefore cannot be used to store personal files for backup purposes (such as, for example, Skydrive).
4) CloudApp for Windows and Mac is an application to upload files to the Internet on the fly from the desktop.
5) Mediafire is very famous and allows uploading files up to 200 MB, there are no download limits and the file is not deleted for a long time.
For images and documents there is a hotlink while for other files you have to go to the Mediafire web page.
With Mediafire you can upload as many files as you want, as long as their size does not exceed 200MB.
MediaFire also gives a hotlink that can be used to publish images, for example, on a website, blog or forum.
Also in this case, registration is recommended to keep and order the data uploaded to the Mediafire online server.
The files can be made private or password protected and in any case, in no case, they can be searchable by other people.
6) 4shared is an online space of 10 GB free to use, with a single file limit of 2GB, with an application for Android and iPhone smartphones and with the desktop program for synchronization.
7) Amazon Cloud drive allows you to upload 5 GB of files online.
8) Wikisend is very similar to Share1t and allows uploading files, with hotlinks, up to 100 MB for each with removal for inactivity after 7 days.
9) Mega Cloud with 50 GB of free space.
There are several others so I suggest you also look at the list of sites for online backup and save files on the internet and those for sharing heavy and big files.
