Dropbox Backups
Understand better what Dropbox backups represent and the ways to activate them from your web hosting account.
Dropbox is a file storage service, that enables you to store any sort of content. The files are synchronized between all computers in which the Dropbox app is installed and you can access them through any type of device, even a smartphone. Unlike a web hosting service where the files are executed and an html file, for example, shall display as an actual page with text and images on it, in Dropbox you will view the content as a list of folders and files. If you already have an account with them or start a new one, you can reap the benefits of our complimentary service and you can link a web hosting account on our end with the Dropbox account so that our system can generate regular backups there. In this way you could have a copy of your data on our servers, on their servers and also on your computer and you shall be able to access it from any unit as long as the Dropbox application is installed, which will offer you more safety in case something happens with your data, like an accidental deletion, for example.
