Can my website be restored? In short

Usually yes, if the Wayback Machine captured it. The free checker counts the archived pages and images for your domain, shows when it was captured and scores how restorable it is out of 100. A score of 50 or more usually means the public pages, text, images and URLs can be rebuilt. Databases, logins and orders can never be recovered from the archive.

How accurate is the restoration score?

It is an automated estimate from capture counts, not a guarantee. A specialist review checks which pages, images, styles and files actually load before we quote.

What if the checker finds nothing?

The site may still be restorable from old files, backups, exports or screenshots. Send what you have for a free manual review.

Is my domain stored?

Results are cached for 7 days so repeat checks are fast. We don’t need your email to run a check.

How the restoration score works

The score adds up five signals that decide whether a rebuild from the archive is realistic.

Homepage archived · 25 pts

Whether the Wayback Machine has at least one successful capture of your homepage.

Archived pages · 25 pts

How many unique HTML pages were captured: 100+ pages scores highest.

Archived images · 20 pts

How many images were saved. Missing images are the most common gap in archive rebuilds.

Recency · 15 pts

How recently the site was captured. Captures from the last two years usually match what you remember.

Capture history · 15 pts

How many different months were captured. More months mean more chances to fill gaps from other snapshots.

Restoration checker FAQ

Can my website be restored if it was deleted years ago?

Often, yes. The Wayback Machine has captures going back to 1996. If your domain was captured while the site was online, the public pages can usually be rebuilt, even years later.

Why does the checker show more pages than my site had?

The archive saves every unique URL it found, including old pages, tag archives, URLs with parameters and duplicates. The manual review separates real pages from duplicates.

Can I restore a website that was never archived?

Not from the Wayback Machine, but old files, backups, exports, cached copies or screenshots can still support a rebuild. See options for sites that were never archived.

Is this the same as a Wayback Machine downloader?

No. The checker only measures what was archived. A downloader saves the files, and a restoration rebuilds a working site. See downloader vs restoration.

What does a restoration cost after the check?

From $29 for HTML, $79 for WordPress, $149 for Elementor and $249 for WooCommerce. See all restoration prices.
