Cloud storage and VPN deal

ExpressVPN | 1 year | $12.95 $6.67/pm and 3 months FREE
With fast speeds, 24/7 live chat, and best-in-class encryption, ExpressVPN is our top choice VPN for privacy and unblocking content worldwide. Get it today with a no-hassle 30-day money-back guarantee, a massive 49% discount off suggested retail price AND 15 months for the price of 12. And to sweeten the deal even further, Express has teamed up with trusted cloud storage service BackBlaze to give one whole year of unlimited secure backup.

A VPN is great for keeping your internet secure - particularly when on public wifi networks. But it is also handy for cloaking your online identity - so that you can access overseas services that normally block access to non-nationals. This is not only good for accessing streaming services in other countries – but is useful to be able to pick up your favorite home TV channels and entertainment accounts when you are traveling abroad.

Online cloud back-up, such as offered by BackBlaze, allows you to store images and files without the need for external hard drives or memory cards. This allows you to back up valuable digital assets - but also to archive your digital images and documents. This cloud backup provides peace of mind in case a hard drive corrupts, or if your computer gets stolen. BackBlaze usually charges $60 a year for its unlimited data service - but with this ExpressVPN deal you get the first year for free.
