The Hostinger alternative for putting files online
Put a file online without buying a plan, opening a control panel or touching FTP. 99helpers gives any file its own address at your-name.99helpers.site in about ten seconds.
Hostinger is traditional web hosting: a plan, a control panel, a file manager, a domain. That's a reasonable foundation for a business website you'll run for years, and an enormous amount of apparatus around the question of where to put one file.
What you get instead of Hostinger
Everything below is free, and works the same whether you're publishing a PDF or a whole static site.
Drop a file, get a link
Drag in a file, a folder or a .zip and pick an address. There is no repository to create, no build command to configure and no CLI to install — the page is live before you've finished explaining what it is.
- ✓A single file, a folder or a .zip, all treated the same
- ✓An account only at the moment you publish
- ✓Live in about ten seconds
Any file, not just websites
Most static hosts are built for HTML and treat everything else as an awkward exception. Over 200 formats are handled properly here: PDFs and images render in the browser, documents and archives download cleanly with the right name.
- ✓PDF, images, SVG, video and audio play or render in place
- ✓Word, Excel, PowerPoint, CSV and archives download correctly
- ✓Unknown formats still get a working link
A short address you choose
Your page lives at a name you picked on 99helpers.site — short enough to read out loud in a meeting, put on a slide, or write on the back of a card. Not a generated string of words.
- ✓You choose the name, not a generator
- ✓Permanent, and yours until you delete it
- ✓Served from an edge network worldwide
Versions and rollback
Publishing again to the same address replaces the page and keeps the link working — and keeps the old version. If a change turns out to be wrong, put the previous one back in a click.
- ✓Update in place without changing the link
- ✓Every publish kept as a restorable version
- ✓Roll back without re-uploading anything
Password protection
Some things should be online but not public — a proposal for one client, a draft for three colleagues, a portfolio before it's announced. Set a password and visitors meet a lock screen first.
- ✓Set, change or lift a password at any time
- ✓Changing it signs out everyone who had the old one
- ✓Protected pages are kept out of search results
An API, and an MCP server
Publish from a script with a REST call, or connect the MCP server and let an AI publish for you — so the thing it just built gets a link without anybody opening a browser.
- ✓REST API with tokens you can revoke
- ✓MCP server for Claude and other AI clients
- ✓Same versions, rollback and passwords either way
Where Hostinger is shaped differently
- A paid plan before anything can be published
- Control panels and FTP clients between you and a live page
- Built for running a site long-term, not for sharing something today
None of that makes Hostinger a bad tool — it's built for a different job. If yours is getting one file in front of someone quickly, this is the shorter route.
Try it with a file you have right now
Drop something in and see the link for yourself. You only create an account at the moment it's ready to go live — and hosting is free.
