Using the Wayback Machine for SEO

For dead pages with strong backlinks, the Wayback Machine can provide a snapshot of the original content. Prefer restoring from your own backups first.

If you use Wayback for reference, ensure you have the right to reuse the content. Consider summarizing and linking the archived version rather than cloning verbatim.

Use Wayback Fixer to automatically find the best snapshot for each dead URL, with optional HEAD verification and SavePageNow queueing.
