Why save a web page
Content on a web page can be edited, moved, or deleted at any time. An announcement gets reworded, a product page changes its price, an article is taken down, and afterward it is hard to find what it used to say. Saving a snapshot first lets you go back and read the page as it was.
What a WebYore snapshot saves
It saves the public text, images, and layout that can be retrieved during capture, and gives you a link you can share. If the original site is later updated or removed, the saved snapshot does not change. Some pages can also be read in a retro layout.
What cannot be saved
Content that requires logging in or paying cannot be saved, and a snapshot cannot be made if the site does not allow its pages to be archived. Some images or parts of the layout may not be captured completely. You cannot post new comments or use search in a snapshot, and it is not a backup of an entire website.
Good to know
You can create a snapshot without logging in; logging in lets you manage your snapshots in one place. Snapshot links are public, so anyone with the link can open them. For content that really matters, keep your own backup as well.
