I suggest you back up the HTML files as a record of her work when she was still a child, it will be a family treasure in the future :) You can even add it under your family's domain for safekeeping.


I would love having a backup of my websites from ~1995.

But maybe my memories are more exciting than the plain truth.


One of mine was caught by the wayback-machine, unfortunately before I ever got to add any of the menu or content functionality.

I started when I was 9, using Word as the editor. This was 5 years later and I was 14 at the time), I both wish and am ok with the content no longer being there. At least I can go back humor myself on what I put in the side-navigation.


I removed a lot of my older content from the Wayback Machine out of paranoia that future employers might find it and judge current me based off that. Pretty silly in hindsight.

I do still have code archived by Planet Source Code though.


Do this before it gets the GeoCities treatment. I regret not making backups of things I made as a kid.


And even better, print the website, and print the code!


"Family tree? Nah, my family has a git log of achievements and memories".
