See what competitors are doing: screenshot archive of home and landing pages

  It's a good idea. I've been doing it for several years and have about 3500 screenshots now. Not just homepages, though, but often blog post layouts, sign up boxes and similar interface elements. It's a huge asset to me and I can narrow in on ideas very quickly for future use. I've been asked to share it many times but I fear there might be some 'personal info' in it and I'd have to trawl through to clean it up. Since I probably couldn't legally sell 1000s of screenshots of other people's sites, it hasn't been a priority, though I guess I could take donations or something.

    Interesting. To understand better: do you use these screenshots mostly to help you remember great design elements (collection of good stuff) OR do you use these screenshots to keep track of what your competitors are doing?

      Both. I hadn't really thought about this before and had previously thought of it as a repository of "good" stuff but.. there's plenty of not-so-good stuff that's in there merely because it's by a competitor or someone else related to my space.
