How to Build a Ringtone Website
All cell phones come with a small selection of ring tones, which are sounds for your phone that play when you get a call or text message. Sometimes the standard package of tones is not good enough, and you want some of your own to use but do not want to waste the time to search through too many websites. Now you can create your own website to host your favorite ring tones, plus share it with others.

Upload your free ring tones to a free website uploading service. Two leading services are Megaupload.com and Rapidshare.com, which offer both free and subscription-based services. If you use them for free, you are limited to how much you can upload, but getting a subscription will lift the limit. When you are finished uploading each item, you will be provided with a link.

Tips & Warnings
Although Phonezoo.com provides all free ring tones, keep in mind that other websites may offer ring tones that are under copyright. Do not upload any copyrighted material without first asking permission from the creator, and any relevant conditions such as a small fee. Ring tones that you make yourself from copyrighted music should not be uploaded and shared with others. The record labels that own and distribute the music would consider it copyright infringement.
