In my first tutorial on SIZ, I've posted a way to share anything instantly. The method still works fine and serves as a time-saver. There's only one problem with that method, both the sender and receiver devices must be on the same network. However, we have to send files to folks who might reside in a different country. For this very reason, I've brought a new tutorial that will eliminate the requirement to be on the same network.
The name of the website is WeTransfer, one of the most famous web-based file-sharing services. You can send files of up to 2GB without the need for creating an account or paying for a membership, isn't that amazing?
You can use WeTransfer by using two approaches. Let's take a look at both methods with each step so that everyone can understand quickly:
Step 1
Open any browser on any web-accessible device and search for "WeTransfer".

Step 2
After clicking the link, you will see this type of interface. Backgrounds changes dynamically, so don't worry if the background is a little different.

Choose how you want to share
Now, before moving any further, it is important to mention that there are two ways to send files using WeTransfer. You can either send it via email or you can simply produce a link. Here are the steps for both of these methods. You can easily choose by clicking on the options button (bordered with red color in the image) and then choose either the Email or Link option.

Choose how you want to share
Step 3
Using Email | Using Link |
---|---|
You have to provide the email address of the sender. Don't fret, you will not be asked for a password. Second, you have to enter the receiver's email address. You can also enter subject and body, just like the way email works. The recipient will receive the file as an email. | It's an easy and fast step, one doesn't need anything for this approach. Just upload the file, add text if you like, and the website will generate a link. You can send this link to anyone, and they can easily access and download the file. |

Step 4
Using Email | Using Link |
---|---|
The sender will receive an email from WeTransfer with a code to verify before sending. After verifying, The receiver will receive the files in the form of an email. you can easily download the files from there. | No verifying is necessary. Just click the link on the receiving end, and you will be directed to the interface, and you can easily download the files. |

I tried my best to explain all the steps concisely. Hope you learned something from it. I'm trying to find all under-rated websites that have some serious potentials but are not getting the fame they deserve. I'll be back soon with a new tutorial, until then.
