## Working
DHost uses web3.storage, basically it makes the content available over IPFS and permanently pins the content with the help of [Filecoin](https://filecoin.io/) infrastructure. Read more about web3.storage and how it works [here](https://web3.storage/about/).
We have our separate DHost API Token on web3.storage, it allows up to 1TB of content pinning, after that we can request more storage for our respective use.

After uploading your website to IPFS, web3.storage returns a [CID](https://docs.ipfs.io/concepts/content-addressing/) `Qmeq5NxNX644KHNji..`, which is a hash for an array of files stored on IPFS, and that later is combined with IPFS gateway link `https://ipfs.infura.io/ipfs/` to access the content.
