Websites

Websites are essentially dynamic information entities that are constantly changing. This means you can only capture all a website's information by taking snapshots of it at regular intervals, much like the Internet Archive does (archive.org). Note: it is insufficient to rely solely on the Internet Archive because the snapshots produced by this service are rarely complete. It's also relatively easy to create them yourself. A snapshot of a website is a 'static copy' of all its HTML pages together with all images, style sheets, etc. The system that the website runs on (often a content management system like Drupal or Wordpress) is then not also archived. The archiving format for websites is WARC. You can find strategies for saving websites in the article for how to archive websites.
