HOST YOUR FILE FREE GOOD FILE HOSTING WEBSITES
Some important free file storage systems on internet
Some time we need to upload a file on web-server .And we do not have any web server to upload file .Suppose we have a blog on blogger (blogspot) .We can upload image files and video files on blogger but we cannot upload other file types such as zip or rar or .exe .(Currently) .And we want to create a download link for our users, then what to do .
there are many websites providing free file hosting.Here I am giving some better choices .
MEGAUPLOAD
MEGAUPLOAD.COM
This is my favorite file storage system .It is most useful for free users .It is the only system supporting download resume for free users.Free users can register and manage their files .
4SHARED
4SHARED.COM
It is also a good file storage system and the unique feature of this system is that it has its own file search engine i.e. we can search file by name to download.
RAPIDSHARE
RAPIDSHARE.COM
It is the largest file storage system .But this system is very busy for free users .
EASYSHARE AND MEDIAFIRE
These are another good file storage machines .Mediafire provides good download speed for free users .
Some other filehosting websites
zshare.com
ziddu.com
netload.com
uploading.com
You should check your uploaded files links frequently if you are a free user because it may be possible that most of file hosts remove their files if not downloaded since a certain period as one month or different time period depending on the file hosting system terms and conditions .

INSTALL WORDPRESS ON YOUR WEB SERVER
After getting a webhost .You will need to install worpress .It can be done by two ways
1.Manually wordpress upload and install
2.Using Script installers such as Fantastico
Manually
It is time consuming and difficult method but if you are using free webhosting you may have to use this method because most of free webhosts do not provide auto script installers .
Download wordpress zip package from wordpress.org
Extract files to a folder
Upload these files via any ftp client to where you want to install wordpress on your web space ( e.g. in root directory or in any sub direcotory as you want )
Create a mysql database
open file wp-config-sample.php on notepad and make changes and then save it as wp-config.php. (enter database name ,database host ,and password )
Type yourdomain.com/wp-admin/install.php into your browser.
Now run the installation and it is very easy and quick now.
Using Script installers such as Fantestico
It is very easy and fast and every paid webhost provides this service in its control panel .The interface of most of web hosts is similer and looking like this
Click on Fantastico and select wordpress from list
Then select new install
Then select domain name and folder ( do not name an existing folder because fantastico creats folder itself )
Then select admin username and passowrd and click ok
On next screen fantastico will tell you the mysql database created.You should note the name of database and press finish installation .
SETUP PERMALINKS
After installing wordpress login to your wordpress (www.yourblog.com/wp-admin/)
You will be redirected to your wordpress dashboard
See the left sidebar and see the settings
You will find the option permalinks
Select permalink custom structure and enter the following structure here
/%year%/%monthnum%/%postname%.html
IMPORT YOUR BLOG FROM BLOGSPOT VIA WORDPRESS IMPORT OPTION
On your dashboard go to the tools and select import
Then choose blogger from the list
You will see the authorise option on nest screen
Click here and grant access to your blogger account via login
Wordpress will show your blogspot blog and now you can import your blog with one click .
