Since our relaunch on March 20th, Simplebucket have been growing well in terms of users and images uploaded to Simplebucket. We've recently reached 700 users and 2000 uploads. With so many free image hosting sites out there, how do we stand out? Well for a number of good reasons:
1) All your images are hosted on Amazon S3.
Amazon S3 is a popular and scalable hosting platform web service. All uploads to Simplebucket are hosted at Amazon S3's infrastructure. I'm sure many of you know of Amazon.com and to run the biggest Ecommerce website in the world, they gotta have the one of the best web infrastructure in the world. Solsie.com, one of our active users, took advantage of our image hosting solution by using Simplebucket for hosting their images and that helps in a number of ways such as your blog/website will load much faster since the images tend to be the biggest assets normally and using Simplebucket means your images are served at much higher speed.
2) You get so many features and it's all free.
Yes, Simplebucket is not only free, you also get so many features that are premium features that you need to pay at our image hosting website. Things like adding voice recording, notes, stats and comments. Embed images with notes and voice. Simplebucket is the only image hosting site that does that.
3) Uploading without logging in.
I would have to say Simplebucket's unique upload process allows you to upload without having to register for an account. But that's not all. You also get to adminstrate your images even without an account. But if you are an account addict, no problem, we'll also let you convert from your secret url access to a password protected account.
So what are you waiting for? Go upload your photos to Simplebucket now.
