Mediafire Pro Account Review

Unknown | Wednesday, February 15, 2012 | 0 comments
Mediafire (#) is currently the leading free cloud storage website with a lots of power packed feature & easy to use user interface. Launching in October 2006 the Mediafire team has proved them the best & been awarded many times. I personally started using Mediafire from end 2008 just to use it as a backup some of my files & attaching large size files in mails. After using a some time I liked there service & used them to store most of my files & shared with my friends. The free account of Mediafire gives so many features than any other cloud storage service. After using it for a long time as a free user I decided & upgraded to their Pro account paying $9 as one month's charge. You can find the features & comparison of their different account types from here.
The most important extra features I got are,

  • My file size limit increased to 4GB(200MB for free users)
  • My uploaded files will be kept forever[as long as they exists ;-)] in their servers as long as I continue to be their PRO customer.
  • 100GB of Direct linking of the Mediafire links. Means while free users have to visit each time they want to download files form Mediafire I don't have to. Up to 100 GB I will be able to download files from Mediafire links bypassing their download page.
  • 25 Custom URL's (subject to availability) instead of only 1 for free users. E.G. http://www.mediafire.com/xxyour-custom-linkxx
  • I can replace the Mediafire logo from my files page and use any one I like to use.

                        And also there will be Detailed download statistics, embeddable file dropbox, priority email support and many more. But one must know some of the hidden conditions (which they did not clearly stated in their offer page), below are the details.

  • All your files will be direct linked automatically: Suppose you are an uploader and offer your files for free download over many websites or in your personal websites (Most of the Mediafire users do this :-P). All the links you share will be automatically Direct Linked. Means any one with your file link will be able to download files directly bypassing Mediafire's download page. And this bandwidth will be deducted from your 100GB allotted bandwidth. There is no way to disable this feature however you can disable direct linking feature from your own use. Means you can opt to use the traditional downloading procedure of Mediafire whereas you can't stop your users from direct linking. More you share your links & more your files be downloaded by other anonymous users, more your bandwidth decreases. Whereas the other file hosting sites you can control which file to be hotlinked and which file to not.
  • Mediafire says as a Pro user I will not see any advertisements while visiting Mediafire pages for download. But every time I visited any Mediafire download page I saw advertisements. This is weird!
  • I have a big confusion, does Mediafire count each download or each download page visit. Cause for test purpose I once just visited the download page & looked back at my stats, what I found that the count is showing one download. How is this possible? I did not downloaded the file so why did it showed as 1download?
  • While purchasing a Mediafire Pro account every on will get a one month extra period to extend his subscription. Means if you purchase an one month Mediafire Pro account on 1st January your Pro account will be valid till 28th February. They will give one month extra to renew your subscription.
  • If your 100GB direct link bandwidth finishes and you want more then you can purchase additional roll over bandwidth. There are 3 plans for this, 100GB bandwidth for $9, 250GB bandwidth for $19, 1000GB bandwidth for $69. If anytime your bandwidth remains for any month the extra bandwidth will be added next month automatically.
If anyone uses Mediafire daily basis then he/she might not use Mediafire Pro account cause no extra special benefits are there. But if you are a power user and use Mediafire for making your brand value by direct linking & detailed statistics then you must go on and try for one. I personally liked their service but if the bandwidth option & advertisement option are changed for good then it would have been better.
Well, I shared my personal thoughts & I am not blaming or praising Mediafire, all of my thoughts are neutral. if any one have any different views then please share here by commenting below.
