Then there is a website – Wayback Machine where you can find the history of a webpage. You can use their service to find out the content that was hosted under a domain name. Over the time as webpages change and get updated, Wayback Machine will be maintain snapshots of entire webpage history. All that you need to do is type a URL in the above link and surf back through the time.
