To increase Prims you Must increase land size

No you cant, Prims are related to the Sq Meters of your Land only way is to look for a larger Parcel, I have a few parcels available depends what you want

The first answer is sort of correct.
It depends on certain factors. It IS tied into how much land you own on that sim. So, is there more land available on that sim? If so (even if it's not connected - just on the same sim) you can purchase additional land and it will increase your prim limits on ALL the parcels you own on that same sim.
So - if there is land available in a corner or the other side of the place, you can buy it and just not use the land. But you WILL be able to use the prims available from that land on your original parcel.
Hope that makes sense and helps.

Doraus please be acurate, Rygel is 100% right and inacurate information coupled with offering to sell land gives us estate owners a bad name, you don't need to buy a whole new larger parcel, just another one on the same sim.
however Pazur forgot to mention if it is rented land in a rent group, if it is then there is another option but it need the help of the owner of the land that you are renting, on rented land that is in a group the number of prims is controled by the rent box but limited by the number of free prims available to the group, these free prims can be added to your rental by reconfiguring the rent box, offcourse the land owner can not rent those prims out again but it should not matter because you are paying for them so he gets income from them anyway.
so to sum it up, bought land or non group rented land: get extra land, rental land in a group (usualy rented on prims basis): ask the land owner for more prims from other unrented parcels on the same sim.

Correct yes,
you can use the prims of parcel A on parcel B if both parcels are in the same sim and if they have both the same land owner or if they both are DEEDED to the same group.

Also remember that some mainland parcels do have double prim allowances - e.g., in Bay City. This sort of mainland does cost more though.
If you rent land from a private estate it will have a set prim allowance and it may be possible to arrange to purchase a higher prim allowance - this obviously will depend on the estate owner and whether the overall sim prim allowance can cover this.

Some land barons 'rent prims' to people, although I don't know much about that.

They have set/deeded the land to a group. And sell you the prims. Same as with a shop in a mall.

From: Deira Llanfair Also remember that some mainland parcels do have double prim allowances - e.g., in Bay City. This sort of mainland does cost more though.
If you rent land from a private estate it will have a set prim allowance and it may be possible to arrange to purchase a higher prim allowance - this obviously will depend on the estate owner and whether the overall sim prim allowance can cover this. That's a sim setting: objects bonus. If you set it to 2 then a 4096 that has normally 937 prims will have 1875 prims. But this is then for ALL land on the sim. But this doesn't mean that a 15000 prim will have 30000 prims. The max. for the sim will stay at 15000. So it's only interesting if for exemple 1/2 of the sim is water and you rent/sell the other 1/2 of the sim with land on it with double prim bonus. In that case the tier for the land will also be the double or the same as a 8192sqm land.

My solution to this was to buy one of the micro parcels on my sim.
If you're on mainland, there are likely many small badly cut pieces. Most of them are insanely priced, but sometimes one goes down, and if it does, grab it and hold it for a few extra prims.
What I actually did was buy up one large lot that was split across three different parts of my sim, and one smaller piece that was inside one of the larger pieces cuts, I then reshaped everything to make a couple new properly shaped parcels, sold all the new good plots but for one I kept to make a shop, and kept one bad cut that was completely un-fixable for its prim boost to my own lot.
Within a day of doing it, all the plots I'd put up for sale got bought by land flippers who have unreasonable notions about the value of land. They upped the price, and the land now sits unsold - but at least now there are a few extra useable plots in my sim.
If you're lucky, you'll be on a sim with a few unusable cuts that have gone way down in price, and you can do this as well.
