The Internet Archive's General Archive (web.archive.org) is a free-to-use resource. Archive-It is a fee-based subscription service offered by the Internet Archive.
Archive-It lets users curate, scope, and manage their own focused or topical collections. Archive-It users can decide how deep and how often a site is crawled; they can exclude content from being collected, surpass robots.txt exclusions, catalog with metadata at the collection, seed, and document level, and so on. Archive-It collections attribute archived web pages to a specific collection and the organization that collected it.
Archive-It collections are indexed for full-text search (basic and advanced). This is not widely available for the General Archive.
Archive-It provides technical support to its users.
Archive-It partners can download copies of their data at any time, which is not available for content collected as part of the General Archive.
In general, websites that are collected and made public on the Archive-It website will also appear in the General Archive.
