    People are not leaving from us, quite the contrary, there are more and more new uploaders joining us, and we can see the traffic growing every day - you can see yourself in alexa for example.

    When you consider how long it took SM/FSC to iron out bugs (still ongoing) and introduce new plans I think YOU holding to ransom Filepost by throwing your rattle out the crib and acting like a big baby crying "I'm leaving" would be enough for me to think well its good riddance then.

    :)

    However we are trying to at least meet all needs of our partners and users and find a balance between them.

    I agree but it will take time because of the proven competition. Personally I am looking long term and for now building up an arsenal of files, then potential premium purchasers can see the investment will allow them access to a host of files.

    I think one of the problems is , do they invest in a Filepost premium or do they search for a mirrored file on another host they have a premium account with.

    Which is why I hate and would never use multiupload or any mirror services

    it's easier when you have your own site, like the top earners, while posting on forums is something else.
    people seem to be constantly looking for the hosts that they're already familiar with, it takes time for them to get used to a new host
    I think it would be easier to make a sale on a forum if Filepost was well known, rather than new. Although, I can see that we're getting big fast

    Hey ...Uploads in general are not working great ...... bad to say the least ...
    Remote upload doesn't work at all .. for Fsn, WU,Fsrv ...I tried these three hosts ... buit Remote uploads are only looping indefinitely and not getting done ...

    All i get is like this ... Processing 5% ... Processing 60% .... Processing 98% .... Queued ... Error .... Processing 5 % .... This never ends ... and am on day two ...

    Only 2-3 out of 20 works .... Ftp uploads are alos causing me the same problem ... It stops when it reaches around 90% .... Didn't check Browser upload ..as i think they are not reliable in general to all hosts ..

    Do anyone having problems with Uploads or am i the only one ?? I am almost fed up ...

    Maybe they could try to be simple ... Getting a Download link is very tedious ... we have 3 steps to get it ..unlike other hosts where you get them while selecting ... and everytime we have to select options (if i don't want to save my link options) ... and dashboard is stocked with too much of info that it makes it tedious for a view..You can try to make it simpler to the viewers retaining all the info ... Statistics need to be on a seperate tab and other things seperate ...
    Perhaps ..this may be due to the fact taht they have just started out but ...definitely needs to improve on this faster ..and especially on uploads ... without having a perfect upload feture ..this can't last long ... as it is the backbone of any filehost ....

    Hope they improve and become a reputed host soon...

    Sorry, seems only you have so many problems with all upload types - our partners successfully upload lots of files every day.

    If you have any particular problems, we always ask you to submit technical tickets to our support team via the site with all the details possible - only in this case we will be able to make investigation and help you.

    You are the first person who we get such an opinion from. The most our partners are soooo content with the admin panel - with File Manager and with the detailed Statistics where you can find ANY information. We have made all the sections so easy to use...

    I can see only emotions in your posts, no specific suggestions. If you have SPECIFIC suggestions/offers, not general words - we sure will be glad to listen to them. We are absolutely open for the suggestions and ideas.

    Nope no real problems, maybe stuck in a queue sometimes but I have other things to do. Oh just make sure you use the correct link for FSC and WU do not use the localized one always use .com I found that out the hard way

    Are you sure you are with Filepost because getting a file link is exactly the same as FSC and many others. Click on file and all options pop up.

    As for the dashboard its probably the best out there, as you say it's stocked with info, BUT USEFUL INFO so just take your time and get used to it, or use Oron which is completely naked in comparison

    I love statistic on this site. Its one of the best on the market! If possible, i want options to know from where i get download for specific file. Something similar like on Filesonic. There when i click on downloaded file (inside statistic page) i can view from what country is download maked. Its been nice to see this on Filepost, and i suggest you to go one step forward, and offer that users can see from what country and which site get downloads for specific file. It would mean a lot in determining priority sites for posting adequate links. Is something like this possible?

    Thank you for your kind words)

    At the moment you can see how many sales and unique users came from this or that referrer. Keeping such details as 'from what country and which site get downloads for specific file' would be really too much information to store and get - for the system I mean - so at the moment we do not consider that. If that is critical, you can post a file A on one site only, and post its copy B - on some other site only also - that may help.
