Ask HN: How to Resurrect a Site from Archive.org?

rrr_oh_man Saturday, November 30, 2024

I recently bought the expired domain of a niche interest site because the previous owner was determined to let it die and did not want to put any effort in it anymore.

Is there a way I can "revive" it from archive.org in a more or less automated fashion? Have you ever encountered anything like it? I am familiar with web scraping, but archive.org has its peculiarities.

I really, really love the content on it.

It's a very niche site, but I would love for it to live on.
