Archive.today is a web archiving site founded in 2012. It serves as a time capsule for web pages, capturing snapshots of web content on demand. In the rest of this short article, we will see some of the key features of the site, a quick demo on archiving a site, and comparing it to the Wayback Machine — a very similar site.
Key Features
1- Snapshot preservation
Archive.today takes snapshots of webpages, ensuring they remain accessible even if the original page is removed or edited. It records two types of snapshots:
- One replicates the original webpage, including any functional live links
2. The other is an image of the page
This preservation helps reduce link rot (links becoming unusable over time) by providing a backup copy of online content (source).
