Dropbox is a well known cloud file storage platform. In contrast to a web hosting service where you can have an Internet site that's accessible online by typing a domain address, Dropbox allows you to store files, that you can access via their app using a computer or a smartphone. The files are not executed, so an html file will be listed and not shown as an actual site. The service permits you to access your data from any location provided that you log in with the right credentials. As the company allows third-party providers to use their API, we have taken advantage of this service and we provide you with the chance to create regular automatic backups of the content that you have on our end to a Dropbox account so long as you've got enough space. This shall include one more level of protection for your sites simply because you will always have a copy of any data that you may need and if the app is installed on your computer system, a copy shall be available not just on their web servers, but also in a folder on your end.
