Download a Live Site Instead of Scraping the Wayback Machine
People scrape the Wayback Machine when they think a site is lost. But if the site still resolves, even barely, a live crawl beats an archive reconstruction every time.
Why Wayback copies disappoint
The Internet Archive samples pages on its own schedule: assets are missing, snapshots mix dates, JavaScript sites render broken, and rebuilding a browsable site from snapshots is manual work.
Crawl the live site while you can
A full-site export captures a coherent, single-moment copy with all assets, verified by the export log. Run it the day you learn a site is at risk.
If the site is truly gone
Then the Wayback Machine is the right (and only) source. Our tool crawls live sites; it does not reconstruct archives.
