How To Create Your Own File Hosting Website

 You can create your own personal file hosting website like Google Drive & DropBox !



File Hosting Website Using PHP

We are going to use PHP to build our own file hosting site. You can upload files ( Documents/Media/Archives) & can share link so that users can download that file. For this purpose, we are going to use Projectsend , which is an open source script.

Projectsend
