How to share data on Box.net?
When you store files on Box.net, you can easily manage your files anytime, anywhere. You can also share your account with friends and family by providing your username and password so they can download files. However, if this method seems too inconvenient (as it limits sharing to trusted individuals only), you can upgrade your account for free on Box.net.
To upgrade your account for free without any cost, you need to invite 5 additional people to join you. To invite friends to use Box.net, go to Settings and select Refer A Friend. Then click on the link Click here to refer 5 friends and get a free upgrade.
After that, enter the email addresses of the friends you wish to invite in the Invite by Email section and click Invite to invite them to use Box.net along with you.
If your friends start using the service, you can upgrade your account for free to access the Download Folder feature, allowing you to download and share stored files.
With a substantial storage capacity, topic categorization, support for multiple file formats, unlimited bandwidth for downloads, and a user-friendly interface, Box.net is an excellent choice for online storage.
