    Userfriendliness & upload status

    SpeedShare has the distinction of being as userfriendly as possible. Userfriendliness also means to us to offer you different versions of download links, for example special forum and blog versions. And all those links will "tell you" in the forum/blog whether the upload is still online or not, so you will know this even before clicking the link.

    Flash-free, no additional plugins necessary

    We take care that no additional plugins (like Flash, etc.) are necessary in order to use Speedshare.
    The only two things your browser should support are JavaScript and Cookies (for login and language system).
    Fortunately these 2 things are part of the standard configurations of the most common browsers.

    Integrated imagehosting

    If you upload pictures with the extension JP(E)G, GIF or PNG (< 1,5MB), thumbnails, preview pictures and link codes for forums or blogs will be generated automatically.
    Everyone who klicks on the preview picture, will be able to view and download the original image at SpeedShare.

    Free Collector accounts

    We offer you the possibility to freely use the Premium user's control center if you sign up for a free Collector account.
    So compared to guests you will have the double download speed, be able to comfortably manage your uploads, take part in bonus programs, collect points for your downloads, get free Premium upgrades, etc.pp., and all this for free, even if people say that one never gets anything for free.
    Sure we also have advantages if you register (popularity, etc.), but haven't you too? =)

    Our own uploadtool

    For users who like to just open a tool on their PC to upload files, we offer our upload tool. Once it is installed, you just need to start it and paste the files in the window and click "upload" to upload them to SpeedShare. You even won't need to visit the SpeedShare page for receiving the download links, you will get them from the tool.

    Many advantages for Premium users

    The biggest advantage for Premium users is that as a Premium user you can download faster, wthout wating time, layer ads and without any limits per hour. Also, multiple downloads (up to 15) are possible.
    Furthermore, Premium users are allowed to search all files hosted at SpeedShare.
    Last but not least your downloads can be resumed if you stop them and all your uploads won't be deleted as long as you are a Premium user, even if nobody downloads them.

    How much you really load counts

    Very often other oneclick hoster tend to count the whole filesize of every file you load, even if you stop loading after 2MB of 100MB -> they will count it as 100MB and this, as a freeuser for example, is very bad for your limit per hour.
    At SpeedShare this is different, we only count the sze you really load, so if you stop loading at 2MB, we wil count it as 2MB even if the file itself has a size of 300MB.

    How does the points system work?

    As a registered member (Collector or Premium) you have the possibility to earn points for your uploads.
    Everytime a free user (who has spent fewer than 6 points in the last hour) loads one of your uploads, you will get a point, you can also get points from Premium users, but a Premium user can only spend 2 points/hour.
    As soon as you have collected 10000 points, you will be able to get one month Premium membership for free.
