Dropbox Backups
Understand better what Dropbox backups symbolize and the way to activate them for your website hosting account.
Dropbox is a well-known cloud file storage platform. In contrast to a hosting service where you can have an Internet site which is accessible online by inputting a domain name, Dropbox permits you to store files, that you can access from their application using a computer or a smartphone. The files aren't executed, so an html file shall be listed and not shown as an actual website. The service permits you to access your information from any location as long as you log in with the correct credentials. As the company allows third-party providers to use their API, we have taken advantage of this service and we give you the chance to produce regular automatic backups of the info that you have on our end to a Dropbox account provided you've got sufficient space. This will add one more level of security for your websites since you will always have a copy of any information that you could need and if the app is installed on your personal computer, a copy shall be available not just on their servers, but also in a folder on your end.
