Dropbox Backups
Get to know what Dropbox backups stand for and how to enable them for your hosting account.
Dropbox is a file storage platform, which has been gaining a lot in popularity nowadays as it permits you to access any content saved on its hosting servers via any device provided their software is installed. The data is synchronized between all devices, so you will be able to access it anytime. Dropbox does not offer hosting services, therefore if you upload an html file it will not display as a webpage and shall not be executed. This particular service is used exclusively for storing information and we have taken advantage of the fact that they offer an API to third-party businesses to set up a backup service on our end, that you can use if you host your Internet sites on our hosting servers. With this extra feature you'll not have tostress about your content since you'll always have a copy of your Internet sites on the Dropbox servers and on your computer system just in case that something happens - a script update failing, deleting files by accident, and so forth.
