Dropbox Backups
What precisely does the Dropbox backup procedure entail? How to copy your Internet hosting account to Dropbox?
Dropbox is a well known cloud file storage platform. Different from a hosting service where you can have a site that is accessible online by typing a domain name, Dropbox allows you to store files, which you can access via their application using a computer or a smart phone. The files are not executed, so an html file shall be listed and not presented as an actual web page. The service allows you to access your data from any location provided that you log in with the correct credentials. Since the firm allows third-party service providers to use their API, we have taken advantage of this service and we provide you with the opportunity to generate regular automatic backups of the content you have on our end to a Dropbox account provided that you've got enough space. This will add one more level of security for your Internet sites because you shall always have a copy of any data that you might require and if the application is installed on your computer system, a copy shall be available not only on their web servers, but also in a folder on your end.
