Dropbox Backups
What precisely does the Dropbox backup procedure include? How to back up your web hosting account to Dropbox?
Dropbox is a well-known cloud file storage platform. Different from a web hosting service where you can have a website that's accessible online by entering a domain name, Dropbox permits you to store files, which you can access from their application using a personal computer or a smart phone. The files aren't executed, so an html file will be listed and not displayed as an actual Internet site. The service enables you to access your content from any location provided that you log in with the right credentials. As the firm allows third-party service providers to use their API, we have taken advantage of this service and we provide you with the chance to generate regular automatic backups of the content you have on our end to a Dropbox account as long as you have enough space. This shall incorporate one more level of protection for your Internet sites because you will always have a copy of any info that you could need and if the application is installed on your PC, a copy will be available not only on their web servers, but also in a folder on your end.
