RARhost – Host your RAR Files for Free

File sharing networks are popping up like weeds these days, but Rarhost is something unique, its like Rapidshare meant just for RAR files. Unlike most of the file sharing networks, this one is completely free (no premium, or shit like that) and survives on Contextual Advertising. RARhost allow you to see the content inside the RAR file even before you download it and warns you if the file is password protected. Cool isn’t it ?

Membership is free, but its not mandatory. Users can upload their RAR file without registering, but their rar files will be deleted if they have not been downloaded in 30 days. Users who are willing to register will get additional features such as file tracking, file management and will be able to see how many times their RAR files have been downloaded. Files uploaded by registered members will survive for 2 months of inactivity period.

Downloaders can enjoy full speed without waiting any counter, but a captcha must be filled before downloading.

Thesedays most files are shared in RAR format, so I’m pretty sure that RARhost will gain some quick popularity. According to their statistics, They been up since August 14th and they own two data servers one in Texas and the other one in New York. Totally 123 GB worth of data has been uploaded (as of 24th Nov), they sound reliable to me.

  • Steven: All comments land on my moderation page, before they get through :)
  • Yeah Thilak - looks like Nithin beat me to it, which is strange since when I wrote my comment there were only 2 comments.
  • Steven, Nithin: I forgot to write about split archives, thanks for dropping your words through comments :)
  • Nice find Thilak. Note that their maximum filesize is 350mb, but apparently you can have them into split archives. That makes the maximum around 35000mb, or 35GB, in which case one shouldn't use this host for that, heh.

    Thanks.
  • Cool site, good for those who want to upload or share large files. But they seem to have a file size limit of 350 MB, which can be easily overcome by splitting the files.
    Anyways a easy alternative to avoiding the counter of other similar services.
