How to add a map to internet?
Hello everyone!
I made 2 really good maps one for HMM3 and other for HMM4. However I've been trying to upload them to this page for ages:
http://www.maps4heroes.com
There is a button called "add a map" which I clicked and it opened my mail along with the new draft and the e-mail recipient.
I sent about 3 e-mails with zipped files maps to this mail and nothing has happened. It is also the same guy who answers all the questions. So it is really weird that there hasn't been any responses. My maps haven't appeared on the page eventho I sent last mail about a month ago.
Is there another way to upload my maps to this websites? If there is, I would be really greatful if you could tell me 
Thank you for your time and I hope this problem gets solved and I can add some cool, tested maps to this game.

I had no problem with uploading maps the maps4heroes site, make sure you fill in the correct e-mail address and the information that is required like map size, name, description etc.
If everything else fails: maybe your e-mail address, try sending the maps via another E-mail address.
goodluck

"and the information that is required like map size, name, description etc."
Where can I find the list of these requirements?

Dude, remove that mapsforheroes personal email (yandex), you NEVER write an email in any forums, because then this is what happens, the guy is spammed to death and he doesn't answer any more to regular emails.

Alright, I made the changes. If that is the rule then I will follow it. But still that still doesn't change the fact that I can't upload any maps. I mean it is weird that am I not allowed just to upload something by myself.
This is weird that when I send a mail, there is not even an automatic response so I don't even know if he has recieved it.
I think there should be a system where anyone who want's to upload a map, could do it.
Even if this system somehow wouldn't work , there should be someone else to help him with all this mail. Because as you said, he prolly gets spammed to death. So it would be easier to split duties.

It is not weird not being able to upload by yourself, if someone else is paying for upkeep. Buy your site then you will be able to upload all you want, right? He needs to check your map, create minimaps (did you add them in the zip?), add an advertising to package then publish it. Usually mapsforheroes owner responds in a few days and I saw he posted some new maps since december, maybe he is on vacancies or something like that. Try to resend email.

There is also celestialheavens.com
On their site you can also find links to Polish Acidcave site, aGerman map site and a Russian etc. Can't remember them all, just that there are other sites.
But common for them all, is that you have to send it in, you can't just upload yourself, as Salamandre described.
Alternatively, you can host it on your own google.drive, onedrive etc...

Thanks for the comments!
I sent an e-mail again that has patched zipped files. In these zipped files are now the minimap images (that I did not have before) and map information text documents about map size, type, difficulty etc. I did not have any of these before but only the map file itself so this might have been the problem why it wasn't uploaded. Anyways let's hope the best and see if all this works now.

Got my maps added and it all worked out. Thanks everyone for their comments and I hope newcomers who are troubled with the same problem can do it without these problems.
