Confused with capture, snapshot, etc. - 15 views

    I want to make sure I have access to certain web pages (as they appear today) even if they go down or change over time. What do I need to do to make this happen? Do I need to select "snapshot" every time I bookmark something? Does it do that automatically? I'd love some assistance! Thanks!

    There are two different scenarios.
    1)When create a bookmark on IE or FF, you can choose "cache" in " more options".
    Once the option chosen, the current webpage will be uploaded to our servers. The current webpage will be saved to our servers even if the original webpage updates. It will be preserved permanently if you are a premium account holder.
    2)Once webpage visited, it is grabbed by back-end servers automatically. If webpages are grabbed successfully, "snapshot" will show up below the title of your bookmark in your library. That means you can search any words in snapshot. Besides, there will be a " screenshot " blue button in the new tab alongside with "webpage" button after visiting " snapshot" of your bookmark. But webpages saved in this way will change in accordance with the original ones.
    Note: The webpage uploaded to our server via " snapshot" feature may be different from the webpage automatically grabbed by back-end servers. For example, some sections are visible only if you log on.
