This chapter demonstrates how the use of a national web archive in hyperlinked network analyses may prove an indispensable source when conducting not only historical but also contemporary analyses of a given website. Our analyses are based on the case of videnskab.dk, a Danish journalistic website disseminating research-related knowledge to the public. Focus is on the examination of hyperlinks related to videnskab.dk in the years of 2009, 2014, 2018, and 2022, followed by a network analysis of videnskab.dk in relation to similar transnational websites. Our results showcase what insights may be gained when conducting analyses with and without access to a national web archive, respectively, highlighting the impact and importance of data collections when studying the online web.
