If it's something like a blog archive.org works. And if it's a website people care about it's as simple as giving the archiver/internet historian/data hoarder hobbyist niche to back it all up on ipfs.

If they wrote things you can digitize them and turn them into an epub that might last a few hundred years. And you can absolutely donate a website, that's just a matter of picking the right license and hosting the actual data somewhere, not the actual website.

An one-time snapshot is not the active site under the original domain. You can do a snapshot (even though there's no organized procedure even for that, afaik) but that's not the same as keeping the site running in perpetuity.

And unfortunately archive.org is woefully underfunded. We take it for granted and it could be gone someday. Please support it if you have the means to do so.
