If you were unaware, archive.org archives old sites online using the Wayback Machine. I was wondering if there was any good way to get them to archive one's site, as my old site had a great amount of material that I had lost in a hard drive crash a long time ago. Unfortunately, it wasn't archived, but I was wondering how this might be fixed in the future. Thanks.

Have alexa crawl your site:

Okay, Alexa is going to crawl my site within a couple of days, so my site will be on archive.org? That all seemed too easy....

Hi:

I love wayback machine! It is fun to look up things as they use to be. You can see how sites were, see when updates were made, or find sites that have been taken off the internet. For example, I can see how my own site progressed over the years. I can also look up sites that the owner has removed, for whatver reason. And you can see how it use to be, and read it. WayBack Machine is a really good find.
