Anyone uses Amazon Web Services?

2 replies
I'm wondering if anyone uses Amazon Web Services? I've thought of using it for a long time. It seems very cheap - or even free for up to a limit? But everytime I go to the website, it totally puts me off. I mean, they really need to make things easier!! Talk about information overload and even for us internet marketers, most of us would be really put off!

Anyway, does anyone use it and is it secure and would you like to share more information, advice, suggestions on usage?

    I use Amazon S3 for hosting all my videos, images, downloads, etc these days and I highly recommend it.

    It's fast becoming the industry standard.

    I agree that their user interface is not the easiest for people to get their head around but after you get it all setup once, you will then be able to use it over and over again. It's definitely worth the small learning curve.

    If you are still having problems then I would go to Youtube and just search for some free Amazon S3 tutorial videos that will show you exactly how to get things setup.

    Once you have your account setup you never really need to go back to that dashboard. You can just download a program that acts much like an FTP program and that is how you then upload and edit all your files in the future.

    The program I use and recommend is totally free:
