Alexander Levin is a co-founder of ImageShack. It has a subscription service, but the majority of their revenue is produced from advertising related to their free image hosting.

ImageShack.us was founded in November 2003 by Alexander Levin and Jack. Three years ago, Levin got the idea for ImageShack as a senior in high school while chatting in online message boards. He noticed a need for a place to store and share images separate from the forums, which didn’t provide enough storage space. With a bit of work, ImageShack was born.

Levin says that he wouldn’t have been able to develop the website without the help of his older brother Jack, who worked as a systems and network engineer at Google for six years.

ImageShack is one of the largest image hosting websites on the internet. They have a subscription service, but the majority of their revenue is produced from advertising related to their free image hosting.
