    How to view old web pages that have been taken down?


    Hey guys,

    I've been trying to view a website that has been deleted in the past 10 days, but since it's been deleted I can't access it...

    Does anyone know what I can do?

    Thank you for any help!

    EDIT:

    When I use Google to find the web page it appears in my Google search results, but when I click the link it's not available...

    You could try Wayback Machine - it has archives of deleted sites etc.

    Google normally gives you a link to cached version of the site

    I tried using the Wayback Machine, but it didn't work for the website I was trying to access.

    How can I access the cached version from Google?

    Try to be specific, what is the URL/Address of the site in question? There could be more than one reason it can't be reached ranging from its server being down, pages being moved, payment for keeping it available not made, etc.

    Look for a green 'down arrow' at the end of the web address in Google. If there is one, click on it and you may be offered a cached page. Not all pages are cached, so you may be out of luck.
