Web archiving

Web archiving is when someone stores a copy of something from the internet. It is like taking a picture of a website so that you can save it for later. For example, if you want to remember your favorite website from a few years ago, you can keep the web page archived by saving a copy of the page. That way, if the website changes or disappears, you will still have the archived version!
