Upload files to multiple mirrors ine one step with Gazup

March 3, 2009

Like previously mentioned Rapidspread, Gazup is a web service that allows you to upload a file and mirror it on several hosts with ease.

Gazup’s interface is decidedly more Web 2.0 (it’s up to you to decide whether that’s a good or bad thing). Apart from uploading a file directly from your machine, Gazup also supports mirroring files from a URL. It’s a handy way to provide alternative downloads for files on your own FTP or web server.

Uploaded files are currently mirrored on up to nine hosts: RapidShare, MegaUpload, FileFactory, HideMyAss, Badongo, Mediafire, Uploadbox, zShare, and NetLoad.in. Files can be managed from your control panel, and Gazup will even notify you if your mirrors are unavailable.

Features are still being worked on, including automatic thumbnail creation for video files. I tested with several different video formats but didn’t have any luck. Hopefully developers will sort this out, as it would be a great feature to help Gazup stand out from the crowd.

Download Squad Upload, Share, and Mirror in One Step With Rapidspread

August 7, 2008
There are plenty of great places to upload and share files, so why not use a bunch of them all at once?

Rapidspread is a a simple file upload site that automatically forwards your files to as many as 10 filesharing sites. From the upload page, simply browse for your file(s), agree to the terms of service, and click share. Once the upload is complete, RapidSpread displays a URL to send to your friends as well as direct links to your file on the supported hosts it’s been transferred to.

My test rar file successfully uploaded to eight of the ten possible hosts – not too shabby. When I chose to upload several images, RapidSpread was even smart enough to limit mirroring to the media-sharing services (ImageShack, Badongo, ZShare, and ZippyShare).

Anyone that uploads files on a regular basis will appreciate the simplicity and power of RapidSpread. If the developers would just intergrate a short URL service like bit.ly, this would be a truly killer service. Give it a shot, and see how it stacks up against your favorite service.
