Within the past few years Dropbox has become a day to day essential for many people. I never knew such an easy way to store, backup and share files. But the major problem is limited storage in Dropbox. They are giving only 2GB for free. In case you need to expand, it’s expensive compared to other services.
However Dropbox is rewarding you for spreading the word. They give extra 500MB of space for every new Dropbox user you introduce. In this way you can earn up to 16GB of space in Dropbox.
16GB is a good deal and so far we never spent a penny. But, what if you need even more storage? Here we go with the solution.
Dropbox Space Race
This is special program conducted by Dropbox itself to give more space to academic institutions. All you have to do is go to Space Race page and enter your school email address. (must be a .edu one) After that ask all your fellow students to do the same. Then everyone in your school will get extra space in Dropbox up to 25GB.
Guys this is a race. If you manage to get more students from your school to space race, more points you get. More points mean more space for whole school for two years. Make sure everyone completes the ‘get started’ guide to earn extra points.
When you go to Dropbox space race page, you will be able to see a leader board with schools and universities with most number of space racers.
Social Media Connection
You can simply get few extra MBs by connecting Facebook and Twitter profile to Dropbox account. Each connection will give you extra 125MB. If you follow Dropbox in twitter, it will give you another 125MB. If you like to give a compliment to Dropbox team, it adds another 125MB. After that tweeting the message will give you another 125MB. All together it’s 625MB. Not too bad isn’t it?
I have earned 16.9GB of Dropbox space so far. Start earning your free space right away.
