It might just be the thing you need to unlock those creative juices, and [dust off that domain](https://www.netlify.com/blog/2021/12/01/dusty-domains-your-forgotten-domains-raise-money-for-charity/?utm_campaign=featdaily21&utm_source=netlify&utm_medium=blog&utm_content=permalinks) you registered but never deployed! Keep an eye [on the blog](https://www.netlify.com/blog/2021/12/01/highlighting-a-different-netlify-feature-each-day-in-december/?utm_campaign=featdaily21&utm_source=netlify&utm_medium=blog&utm_content=permalinks) and on [Twitter](https://twitter.com/netlify) for each feature! Every time you deploy an update to your site on Netlify you’ll get a unique URL for that deployment which will always take you to that specific iteration of your site. This is, of course, in addition to the version of the site being served to your visitors on your production URL being updated too. ![The permalink to a version of the site, shown as the date and time of the deploy](/v3/img/blog/permalink-in-deploys.jpg "A deploy permalink") These permalinks make it incredibly easy for you to keep track of your historic versions and track how things evolve on your site over time. These deploy persist for you to be able to address. Indispensable for QA teams! This can also be very useful when working on project with clients with whom you might want to share a specific version of the site for review while the development team keeps on building and shipping updates. Find the permalinks for every deployed version of your site by visiting the Deploys page in the [Netlify Admin app](https://app.netlify.com/?utm_campaign=featdaily21&utm_source=netlify&utm_medium=blog&utm_content=permalinks). You’ll find that the date and time of each successful build is a link to that exact instance. Known versions on explicit URLs FTW! ## More information - [Docs: Deploys and terminology](https://docs.netlify.com/site-deploys/overview/?utm_campaign=featdaily21&utm_source=netlify&utm_medium=blog&utm_content=permalinks#definitions) - [Terminology explained: Atomic and immutable deploys](https://www.netlify.com/blog/2021/02/23/terminology-explained-atomic-and-immutable-deploys/?utm_campaign=featdaily21&utm_source=netlify&utm_medium=blog&utm_content=permalinks) ### Share - [X (fka Twitter)](https://twitter.com/intent/tweet?text=Unique permalinks for every version of your site&url=https://www.netlify.com/blog/2021/12/07/unique-permalinks-for-every-version-of-your-site//) - [LinkedIn](https://www.linkedin.com/shareArticle?mini=true&url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.netlify.com%2Fblog%2F2021%2F12%2F07%2Funique-permalinks-for-every-version-of-your-site%2F%2F) - [Facebook](https://www.facebook.com/sharer.php?u=https://www.netlify.com/blog/2021/12/07/unique-permalinks-for-every-version-of-your-site//) - [Bluesky](https://bsky.app/intent/compose?text=Unique permalinks for every version of your site+https://www.netlify.com/blog/2021/12/07/unique-permalinks-for-every-version-of-your-site//) * * * ### Tags - [Tips](/blog/tags/tips/) - [Deploys](/blog/tags/deploys/) ## Keep reading ![](/images/blog-fallback-thumbnail.svg) Guides & Tutorials December 1, 2021 [ ### Highlighting a different Netlify feature each day in December ](/blog/2021/12/01/highlighting-a-different-netlify-feature-each-day-in-december) - ![Profile picture of Phil Hawksworth](/_astro/9cfe2bbe94bcb555ce3ac7683ac7905ad3fd32b1-400x400_Z18H6R1.webp) Phil Hawksworth ![](/images/blog-fallback-thumbnail.svg) News & Announcements January 10, 2017 [ ### Keep your site stable with Locked Deploys ](/blog/2017/01/10/keep-your-site-stable-with-locked-deploys/) - ![Profile picture of David Calavera](/_astro/b2c93213782e53ba9493a107f1917a1a44d0d9e5-80x80_tFwf6.webp) David Calavera ## Recent posts News & Announcements June 25, 2026 [ ### Netlify Functions, designed for Agent Experience ](/blog/netlify-functions-designed-for-agent-experience) - ![Profile picture of Eduardo Bouças](/_astro/52958f21e8450baf6d8e60302341a984e220c0cd-512x512_13VDlu.webp) Eduardo Bouças News & Announcements June 24, 2026 [ ### How we measure Netlify’s Agent Experience ](/blog/how-we-measure-netlify-agent-experience) - ![Profile picture of Sean Roberts](/_astro/bbf2243f8171dbddd80ab2103622106cef84d125-512x512_Z1d2LKE.webp) Sean Roberts Guides & Tutorials May 15, 2026 [ ### How to build a real-time AI chatbot in minutes with Netlify Agent Runners (no backend) ](/blog/how-to-build-a-real-time-ai-chatbot-in-minutes-with-netlify-agent-runners-no-backend) - ![Profile picture of Nahrin Jalal](/_astro/f0e7c8f227a03fe58340c99ef5439d5a896c0733-272x272_Z23kDpD.webp) Nahrin Jalal ![](/_astro/3f255b372fa958df35802666ee33b4609b2d71bd-1200x1586_1VtE2D.webp) ### How do the best dev and marketing teams work together?
