| Since Digital Objects are usually computer files, those files need to be stored somewhere on the internet — so they can be downloaded by the customers that purchase them. The locations where your Download Files are hosted on the internet are File Storage Areas. When a customer downloads a Digital Object, they will be downloading it from the File Storage Area that hosts it. All Modular Merchant accounts include a default File Storage Area. Additional File Storage Areas can be added to your account. Most third-party servers can also be used as File Storage Areas. There’s no limit to the number of File Storage Areas you can set up. Examples of File Storage Areas: File Storage Areas are simply directories on your website that contain the files attached to your store's digital products. Some examples include: http://www.example.com/my_files/ http://www.another-example.com/some_more_files/ http://www.one-more.com/fsa/with/subdirectories/ |
