Formed in 2009, the Archive Team (not to be confused with the archive.org Archive-It Team) is a rogue archivist collective dedicated to saving copies of rapidly dying or deleted websites for the sake of history and digital heritage. The group is 100% composed of volunteers and interested parties, and has expanded into a large amount of related projects for saving online and digital history.
History is littered with hundreds of conflicts over the future of a community, group, location or business that were "resolved" when one of the parties stepped ahead and destroyed what was there. With the original point of contention destroyed, the debates would fall to the wayside. Archive Team believes that by duplicated condemned data, the conversation and debate can continue, as well as the richness and insight gained by keeping the materials. Our projects have ranged in size from a single volunteer downloading the data to a small-but-critical site, to over 100 volunteers stepping forward to acquire terabytes of user-created data to save for future generations.
The main site for Archive Team is at archiveteam.org and contains up to the date information on various projects, manifestos, plans and walkthroughs.
This collection contains the output of many Archive Team projects, both ongoing and completed. Thanks to the generous providing of disk space by the Internet Archive, multi-terabyte datasets can be made available, as well as in use by the Wayback Machine, providing a path back to lost websites and work.
Our collection has grown to the point of having sub-collections for the type of data we acquire. If you are seeking to browse the contents of these collections, the Wayback Machine is the best first stop. Otherwise, you are free to dig into the stacks to see what you may find.
The Archive Team Panic Downloads are full pulldowns of currently extant websites, meant to serve as emergency backups for needed sites that are in danger of closing, or which will be missed dearly if suddenly lost due to hard drive crashes or server failures.
ArchiveBot is an IRC bot designed to automate the archival of smaller websites (e.g. up to a few hundred thousand URLs). You give it a URL to start at, and it grabs all content under that URL, records it in a WARC, and then uploads that WARC to ArchiveTeam servers for eventual injection into the Internet Archive (or other archive sites).
To use ArchiveBot, drop by #archivebot on EFNet. To interact with ArchiveBot, you issue commands by typing it into the channel. Note you will need channel operator permissions in order to issue archiving jobs. The dashboard shows the sites being downloaded currently.

Why should I publish on my site and social media at the same time?
Social media is popular, but not everyone uses it regularly. If you only publish on social media, you’re missing up to 60% of adult Americans. It’s important to publish on both your website & social media in order to reach your whole audience. Jetpack Social works as a social media auto poster and makes it easy to share content.
How do I auto share new posts?
While writing a post in the editor, find the Jetpack icon at the top right of the editor. Click on the icon, and you will see the sidebar showing a "Share this post” section. There you can select the accounts you want to auto-share. When publishing, your post will be shared on your social media automatically.
For more details about how to auto share posts to social media, check the full support article.
How do I auto share scheduled posts?
To share scheduled posts on social media automatically, go to your WordPress Admin → Posts and locate the scheduled post to be published. Edit and click on the Social icon (the speaker) at the top right of the editor. Then you will see the sidebar with the "Share this post" section where you can select and configure your social publications. When the post is finally published, it will auto post to social media.
How do I share previously published posts?
You can also recycle published posts to share on your social media. Go to your WordPress Admin → Posts and locate your published post. Edit and click on the Social icon (the speaker) at the top right of the editor. You will see the sidebar with the "Share this post" section, where you can select and configure your social publications. Then, click on the "Share post" action to auto post to social media. This action won’t change the status of your post.
How do I share my content as social media posts?
When you upgrade to the Advanced plan, you unlock the ability to select an image or video and custom text to share your blog post as a social post. Rather than appearing as a link preview, your image and text will look like you manually published it on the social platform itself, saving you time and optimizing engagement. Studies show that manually published social posts get 50% more engagement than sharing links.
To use this feature, simply upload an image or video and add your custom text in the Social section of the sidebar editor. When the post is published, you will trigger the automated social media posting.
