Image hosting is available for users to upload their photos, pictures and images onto the Internet. You may need the images uploaded to show to friends or colleagues, to include in an online auction, or to put up on a blog or webpage. If you need to upload images, you should find a free image hosting service.

Difficulty: Easy
Instructions
  1. Step 1

    Locate a website that you want to use for your image hosting. Photo Bucket, Free Share and Insel Pix are sites that provide free image hosting.

  2. Step 2

    Check file size limits. You need to find a website that has the capability to upload your image. A typical site will allow up to 5MB file size.

  3. Step 3

    Choose an image hosting service that allows modifications to images. Once you upload an image, you want to be able to go back and modify or delete the image.

  4. Step 4

    Find out the type of files that you can upload on the free image hosting site. Look for a site that accepts jpg, png, bmp, gif, tif and swf file types.

  5. Step 5

    Register with the hosting website. Registration with most sites allows you to upload bigger files, track your images and put in direct links.

Tips & Warnings
  • Make sure that you choose a free image hosting website with a support link, in the case that you encounter problems during uploading.
  • Most free image hosting sites have prepaid options that allow you to upload larger images without any set limitations.
