Well, main files hosts close their affiliate program, block USA Ips, delete files… Why? It seems, that their owner are scared by MU case. But, is it really so serious? Yesterday, I’ve read some thinkings from the owner of big file host, which is not going to stop working with affiliates. And, he thinks that owners of files host, which have already stopped affiliate programms, simply decided under the guise of a MU situation to deceive their partners and stole nonpaid money. Little later, they will open new file sharing services with other names and start to work again. Of course, it can be quite profitable for him. Because of:
- many people already have their premiums for quite long period (1 year and more). So, the file host premium level payment are quite lower when it was at start;
- top files hosts need to wait to see what will be with MU owners and what SOPA/PIPA (DMCA and others) will do with sharing services.

I guess that every Internet user has ever downloaded files from file hostings such as Depositfiles, Rapidshare, Hotfile, Letitbit, Uploading, Sharingmatrix, Oron and others. Many of users even know that on file hostings they can earn money. Some people even know that earnings can be quite big and impressive.
But, thought about money making with file hostings comes to the mind of people very rarely. Though such thought may be came in your head and it is even possible that you are registered in some of these file hostings, and even uploaded some files and posted links on them to 1-2 forums. If more of this matter is not matter, then your earnings slightly different from zero. But if you do not know nothing about this kind of Internet money making or you’d like to know more about business with file hostings then let me introduce it to you.
There are such internet services called file hostings, which pay money for downloading your files that you uploaded on their servers. Suppose, you have an interesting file. You upload it to the server of file hosting and get a link to it, then post this link to various web-pages such as forums, news pages, XXX pages, warez pages, your own pages, blogs. People download your file and you receive per thousand of downloads a certain sum of money, ranging from 5 to 1000 dollars, depending on the quality of traffic and the conditions under which you are working with file hosting. This money you can order like a payout to your purse in WebMoney, PayPal, Epassporte without any additional charges.

Why file hostings pay you?

You probably think why the owners of file hostings pay you such a big money? It’s simple. In fact, they give you only tiny part of their own earnings. The files, uploaded by you, people download, but they download them not on direct links, during of the downloading process they have to view advertising, or to escape this they need to buy Gold or Premium accounts (the privileged conditions for downloading from these servers). People or advertisers pay to file hostings, and they share with newsmakers, posters or webmasters – with you, thanking you in such way for sharing your links on the files and bringing visitors to this file hosting for downloading files and viewing of advertising. In other words, you work like a promoter for file hostings.

Do you remember that Filesonic’s already worked almost 1 year? As for me, I’ve forgotten about that fact. And five minutes ago I received letter with announce of this Filesonic anniversary. They prepare new great promo which will be dedicated to this date. So, here is a letter from files host Filesonic:

FileSonic.com’s 1 Year Anniversary Promo!

Dear Content Owners,

The 4th of August 2011 marks our 1 year anniversary!

The Filesonic team is always striving to surpass itself and offer the best service to its users. We will be announcing great improvements in the near future and releasing new ground breaking products!!

As a way of thanking our loyal partners, we would like to announce a great pure cash promo that will start on the anniversary day & continue for 3 days after that.

Yesterday Filesonic announced new tariff plan E. They called it Half & Half. It’s quite strange name as for me. But, the main is not the name, the main is what is inside of this Filesonic tariff plan.
If you’ve already worked with filesonic when it was Sharingmatrix, so you must remember why posters and webmasters chose Sharingmatrix for earning on files sharing two years ago. If not, I’ll try to explain. In 2009, Sharingmatrix offered only one tariff plan, but in that plan they paid for all downloads and premium sales. People liked it, because other files hosts paid only for downloads or only for premium sales without any mix.
But about year ago, when Filesonic appeared, Sharinmatrix tariff plan were changed. Instead of one old plan files host affiliates received the possibility to choose between some Filesonic plans. But in those new Filesonic tariff plans you could earn only on downloads or only on sales. Of course, payment rates were higher than it were in old plan, but any plan didn’t offer mix scheme for working and earning (downloads & premium sales).

Now, meet it. Half & Half is a new plan with mixed payment for downloads and for premium sales! With Half & Half from Filesonic you can earn

It’s happened again! This week Filesonic announced start of new promo with incentive bonus. New April promo from Filesonic was called Fiesta.

In the prologue to the announcement of Fiesta the administration of files host gave intriguing promises to announce some more stunning news in the nearest future. But at the moment, Fiesta from Filesonic is quite stunning news for all affiliates.

This week Filesonic made new updates to their affiliates moneymaking program. There were 2 updates:
1) Now you can earn $35 per 1000 downloads!
2) You may vary the limit of files for free download.

Well, let see what useful this updates can give to us. First of all, from now the table of payment rates for download will have such view:

I decided that current post will be something like news review. This review will consist of the news from leading file sharing services for last couple monthes. So, let’s go!

1. Did you know that Oron increased the minimum of the payout sum? No? Then I’d like to inform you that from January 2011 you can order Oron payout, only if you have on your account balance at least $100. Quite tough, isn’t it? Hope, you agree with me that from the beginning of December Oron became not so attractive for posters as earlier. Well, because of decreasing Oron premium sales, I almost threw it in December. And with such huge payout minimum I think that Oron newcomers may have some difficulties starting their work at Oron. As for me, Filesonic is more loyal to his affiliates. So, if you can’t chose between Filesonic and Oron, I recommend you Filesonic or something else, except Oron. Otherwise, you should work so-o-o-o long before you can order for your first $100 for payout.
2. Did you know that Letitbit set the ratio at the tariff Turba? Badly, that the Turba has ratio. Nevertheless, past two weeks have shown that for stably working posters this ratio

Last time, when I wrote about exciting Filesonic bonuses and promo in 2011, I forgot to tell you about start of selling lifetime Filesonic premium. So, if you need Lifetime Filesonic Premium then you should buy it clicking on the Filesonic banner below:

They added this type of premium in January, 2011. If you will buy this type of Premium you could use your Filesonic account without any limits. You can download from Filesonic all you like on the maximum speed. You can keep your files at Filesonic account during any time you need. And if you will buy this lifetime premium you will get as a bonus 2 1-month premium vouchers. You can sell this voucher and get some money back, or you can give it to your friends like a gift. Well, it’s really exciting news.
But, for me, as a Filesonic affiliate, this Filesonic step has two sides: positive and negative.
Negative is that people who has purchased lifetime premium from filesonic

Hi, people!
I’m very glad to inform you, if still do not know, that one of the best paying files hosts Filesonic(ex-Sharingmatrix) announced a new October Promo, which will be held October 30-31, 2010.

What details of Filesonic October Promo? For every sale of Filesonic premium during downloading of your files, which will be made in Promo days, you will get an additional Filesonic bonus $5 to your earnings. So, for example, if you will sell 20 premium Filesonic during Promo days, then you will receive as an extra Filesonic bonus $100. As for me, it could be super promo from Filesonic. Last weekends I have had about 12-15 purchases of Filesonic premiums. Well, if we’ll upload many files on Filesonic till the Filesonic Promo start, then actively post this files, starting from Friday, October 29, then I think it will be possible to earn an extra couple hundreds dollars as an Filesonic bonus. This Filesonic bonus could be easily spent then on your christmas gifts.
Well, if you’re still not earning on Filesonic, then hurry to the Filesonic registration and uploading of your files.

Hi, all!
Today I want to tell about files sharing service which is called Fileserve. Well, it’s already working about 6 months on the files hosts market. From the start of Fileserve, to be honest, I didn’t believe that they can work stably for a long time. But months have gone and Fileserve is live and works. So, I decided to try it and I understood that service is quite good for earning on files downloads.

So, what does Fileserve offer?

* Country Groups:
1. United States, United Kingdom, Canada
2. France, Germany, Spain, Portugal, Italy, Denmark, Sweden, Switzerland, Netherlands, Norway, Ireland, Finland, Australia, New Zealand
3. Russia, Austria, Poland, Romania, Hungary, Czech Republic, Belgium, Latvia, Estonia, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Slovenia, Slovakia, Cyprus, Sierra Leone, Liechtenstein, Bulgaria, Greece, Turkey, Iran, Japan, Singapore, Malaysia, South Africa, Qatar, Bahrain, Kuwait, Saudi Arabia, United Arab Emirates, Brazil, Oman, Malta, Gibraltar
4. All others

To be counted and pai on fileserve, your file must be bigger 1 Mb. As you see, Fileserve counts and pays downloads from all countries around the world. Fileserve allows unlimited downloads for anonymous and free users. All these downloads will be paid, so Fileserve affiliates can maximize their profit for each file on Fileserve. For example, if an anonymous user will download six files from your account, so Fileserve will count 6 downloads. The main thing for Fileserve is that anonymous IP is unique for each file. If one file will be download from 1 IP, for example, 4 times during 24 hours, so it will be counted like 1 download. But, as I’ve read earlier, if from 1 IP 6 your files will be downloaded, so Fileserve will pay you all 6 downloads of your files.
By the way, as you see, files host Fileserve doesn’t link their payout rates to any levels, ranks or ratio.

Quite often I receive letters from people asking question which was used today as a topic of my article. Why I can’t earn on files hosts? Why I can’t make money in Internet? Why I can’t earn enough online? These are different interpretations of the same issue. First of all, how much is enough for you? As I wrote in my previous articles, you should decide what is your goal of starting earning on files sharing or, simply, making money online. If you have approved goals list, then you can build your workflow on this basis. This is one of the important moments of the online work. In many business courses and trainings the experienced coaches strongly recommend to their listeners, first of all, to decide how much they plan to earn?

What are the reasons of the failures of people, working itself? Why do they not earn enough money from files hosts? Why does your success’ curve tend only down? Well, try to answer honestly the questions listed below and you, I hope, will understand why your online earnings from files hosts (other affiliate programs) are not much different from zero. All things are pretty simple and so elementary that the most of people are simply do not realize it:
- Popular or not popular are my news for people?
- How many sites and forums do I use for posting?
- What is the attendance of sites and forums, on which my news are published?
- Do I make the statistics analyze of those sites and forums, where I publish the news? Were all my news published there? Do my news succesfully pass the moderation on sites and forums? Or, maybe, I’ve registered automatically on sites and forums, using autoposters, and I post my news automatically even not checking their appearance on these sites and forums? May be, the most of my news are simply removed by administrators of sites and forums?
- If my news were not published on any website, did I try to understand the causes of this problem? Perhaps the reasons of this are non-compliance with the site rules, with approved design news, or your news was simply a duplicate of the existing, already published news?
- If my news quite a long time were not published only on some sites, did I try to understand why so? Perhaps, these sites simply did not accept publications from unauthenticated users, or, may be, trey’re already dead?
- Am I working with my sites and forums bases for posting? Do I add new sites(if I find), check old sites for their efficiency or simply use for posting the downloaded sites and forum bases from Internet?
- How do my screenshots to the news look? Am I working on the description for the news? What combination of files hosts do I use?
