Dropbox is a file storage platform, which has been gaining a lot in popularity recently as it enables you to access any content kept on its web servers through any device as long as their software is set up. The information is synchronized between all devices, so that you may access it at any time. Dropbox does not offer Internet hosting services, thus if you upload an html file it shall not show up as a web page and won't 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 companies to create a backup service on our end, that you'll be able to use if you host your sites on our web servers. With this added function you'll not need tobe concerned about your content as you shall always have a copy of your websites on the Dropbox servers and on your computer system just in case that something happens - a script update going wrong, deleting files accidentally, etcetera.
