DESCRIPTION

When I analyzed k2s.cc, it was easy to see where to upload files to the drag-and-drop section on the homepage above the fold. However, when I clicked on the upload button, it was locked behind a subscription wall. I recommend allowing at least a small amount of free storage space to users. Otherwise, it will be hard for users to trust your site without being able to test it first. It will also be able to compete with the other file-sharing sites that do offer free storage space from an SEO perspective because the sites offering free space will have many users who are spending a long time on the sites and engaging a lot with it which will send signals to search engines that they have the better websites. 2/10/2025
