Very good point. We should take this into consideration.

If we get Scheme.org launched as planned, including the paperwork, then
it has a better chance at longevity than almost any personal domain.

Several Scheme implementations' current websites are hosted at places
GNU.org which are likely to last at least as long as a well-run
Scheme.org. But those projects are usually affiliated with a larger
organization like GNU.

Two of the most popular webhosts ever, GeoCities.com and AngelFire.com
no longer exist in their original form. Some people have made projects
to archive a large fraction of the sites that were hosted there, but it
shows that the original URLs are unlikely work forever and even the
sites may be lost. We should assume that programmer sites like
Github.com, Gitlab.com and SourceForge.net have a similar fate
eventually. web.archive.org tries to archive a large part of the web; it
may be the safest bet to have Scheme implementations' sites archived there.
