Dropbox Backups
Get to know what Dropbox backups represent and ways to activate them for your web hosting account.
Dropbox is a well known cloud file storage platform. Unlike a hosting service where you can have a site which is accessible online by inputting a domain address, Dropbox allows you to store files, that you can access through their app using a PC or a smartphone. The files are not executed, so an html file shall be listed and not presented as an actual webpage. The service allows you to access your content from any location provided that you log in with the proper credentials. Since the company allows third-party providers to use their API, we've taken advantage of this service and we give you the chance to generate regular automatic backups of the info you have on our end to a Dropbox account as long as you've got enough space. This will incorporate one more level of security for your websites as you shall always have a copy of any info that you could need and if the application is installed on your computer, a copy will be available not just on their hosting servers, but also in a folder on your end.
Dropbox Backups in Cloud Website Hosting
You could use the Dropbox backup feature with all cloud website hosting plans which we offer and at no extra cost. Via the respective section within the Hepsia Control Panel, you could link a Dropbox account with several clicks and the backups will start being generated there the same day. You could select the Internet sites and databases which shall be copied there separately, so if you have lots of content on our end or a small disk quota with Dropbox, you can choose just the content you really need. You could also select the number of backups that will be kept in your Dropbox account, ranging from three to fourteen, so you could have a daily copy of your data going two weeks back. Including numerous accounts or deleting one that you no longer want to use is just as easy. The Dropbox backups can be used in addition to the daily backups we keep of all your content just in case that you would like to have a copy on your PC through the Dropbox application.
