Best Way To Send Large Files For Free
Jan2
So… You want to send an email attachment from your Gmail, Yahoo or Hotmail account but it says you are exceeding the attachment size limit.
This often used to happen to me when I would try to send clients all their website files and scripts in a ZIP file.
You can send any file as an attachment to anybody via email, true. But only as long as it meets the size restrictions of your email provider; and if you haven’t already noticed that size limit is practically nothing, 25MB at most! 25MBs, are you kidding me?
What’s up with only allowing 25MBs of attachments?
What the heck can I send with only 25MB of attachment storage – Maybe 2 pictures taken with my Sony DSLR camera, and that’s IF I’m lucky – What a joke! Not to mention that as a web designer that works with WordPress, my site files, plugins, wp-content/uploads and MySQL databases are almost always over 25MB. This used to make my life a total suck fest because everytime a client wanted a backup of their site I would need to burn the files to a CD-R/DVD and run to the local FedEx… try doing that 3 times a week and you’ll understand why I’m so psyched about what I’m about to share with you.
If you have wrestled in frustration with transferring large files, you are in luck. Because I have the solution that makes sending GB-large files via email not only convenient and easy but also fast and secure.
Sizable Send is my choice to send large files!
SizableSend.com is my file transfer service of choice for many many reasons but here is a list of my favorites among others:
- Sizable Send is 100% FREE
- Send 2.5GB’s at a time; need to send more? Don’t worry, just open up another browser window and send another 2.5GB’s, and so on, and so on – there is NO upload limit
- You never have to log in, or sign up for some gimmicky trial offer or trial registration
- Select and send multiple files at once by crtl+clicking with your mouse – even my Grandma can do this
- Of the 100+ file transfer services I have tried, it is the only one that allows you to send unlimited data for free and download unlimited data for free
- I have been using it for over 2 years, it is always working and available – other file upload services I have used cannot say the same, I assure you
- Lightning fast – whilst other services like MegaUpload throttle your bandwidth – making small files take forever to upload unless you use their “paid” version – Sizable Send allows completely unrestricted upload and download speeds. In fact I have regularly uploaded/downloaded files at 15+ MBps on my office internet
- Did I already mention all of this is free, easy and oh yea FREE!
In the 2 years and over 1,000,000+ GB’s of MP3’s I have sent with Sizable Send it has always worked, been fast and not filled with any type of spam. If you are paying for file transfer service you are seriously mental!

If you like sizable send now, wait until you get a load of their newest version! you can send up to 10 files at once, and… wait for it… wait for it… the size limit on each file is now 2GB, yes 2GB!
This effectively means you can upload 20GBs in one session and all you have to do is click the refresh button and you can send another 20GB and so on and so on – today alone i have sent over 100GB of movies to friends. As usual, i never had to sign up for some spammy trial offer or did it make me sign up for a stupid account to send gigs and gigs of files for free. SizableSend.com rocks!
