drophost
Send files to a client on drophost
- Stable client URLs
- Replace without resending
- Optional password and branding removal
How to do it
1. Create a client project
Upload the current deliverable and copy the URL.
2. Send it once
Paste the link into email or Slack. Clients bookmark it.
3. Replace each round
Re-upload drafts and finals. Optional passwords on paid plans.
Better than expiring transfers
WeTransfer-style links expire and force a resend when a stakeholder reviews late. drophost projects stay until you delete them, so week-three feedback still opens the current file. Replace drafts on the same project instead of mailing another zip with a new name.
Polish for client-facing links
Add a password, remove drophost branding, and attach a custom domain on Starter (€5/mo or €50/yr) or Pro (€12/mo or €120/yr) when the handoff needs to look finished. Share the passphrase separately for contracts and pricing sheets while clients still browse without creating an account.
One link per engagement
Create a project per client or deliverable so CRM notes and email threads stay tidy. Upload Word drafts on Free, then put the signed PDF on a paid plan without changing the URL already pasted in the thread. Pro expands to 30 projects when you run many retainers at once.
