Question about file hosting to download

Is it possible to build a membership site with a shared hosting account where members will download e-book,software and tools etc.?

Is there any easier way to save the hosting space to avoid account suspension?

I am curious of knowing the kinds of hosting used by different file sharing websites like mediafire,hotfile etc.?

Thanks
Monsur

    Yeah I think it is possible, but if your membership site is large, this will consume your resources, I suggest trying something like Dropbox or Amazon S3 for file hosting/delivery

    Hi Monsor,

    I would recommend Amazon S3. It is very cheap and very reliable. I had over 10000 hits to a squeeze page with a 2 minute video and I paid under $10 for it.

      Thanks both you for the suggestion.

      Does Amazon S3 charge monthly for its paid account?

      How to integerate Amazon S3 to my website so that my members are not redirected to Amazon while downloading any product from my site?
