Once you have signed up with your alternate/temporary account leave the page open and move to the next step It may be best to write this all down like I have done below: Email You will need to do this more than once to get all of the possible free space, therefore I recomend that you write your made up addresses down and use the same password for each one to make it easier If you don't have other email addresses, or have run out, all you need to do is make a temporary one up (In the examaple I used ' ' with no problems). Sign up for another account from your referral link - If you have other email addresses start with those. Open your referral link in a new tab/window. You will need to log in to your account if you are not already In your web browser follow this link to your referrals page on the dropbox website where you will find your personal referral link - It will look something like \ You'll be glad to know the main preparation is now out of the way, Leave this window open and move on the the next step. You should now see a 'Log in to Dropbox' window. If you get a message come up saying "Dropbox is running from an unsupported location", click 'Don't ask again'. On the next window click 'Start Dropbox'. Do you want to continue ?Ī window will appear, click 'Restart Nautilus' then 'Next'. After this operation, 639 kB of additional disk space will be used.

Okay lets get to it and earn you up to 16GB of free bonus Dropbox storage. However I believe I have managed to find the fastest way to reach the referral limit and without the need to rely other people or and using only 1 machine - usually if you use the same machine to register the invites it will invalidate your bonus :( This could take forever and be really frustrating. Usually to do this you would need to invite 32 people and have them all sign up then download a client for their OS and sign in. Now that is all well and good but it isn't always as easy as it sounds to get that extra space. A while back Dropbox doubled the amount of free space you get for inviting friends to Dropbox! Which means you can now get a whopping total of 16 GB of extra space.
