1
A domain name tells you where the information on a site was found.
   
   
2
It is not necessary for a website to provide the name of an author or organization responsible for the site, as long as the site appears to be credible.
   
   
3
In the URL, a tilde (~) usually indicates a personal web directory rather than being part of the organization's official web site.
   
   
4
A reliable website does not need to include the date for when the site was updated, because then nobody will know when it was created.
   
   
5
Having contact information available for the author or organization of a website is important.
   
   
6
The most reliable websites are the ones sponsored by commercial organizations holding the domain name (.com).
   
   
7
A biased website tells both sides of a story or problem.
   
   
8
The author of a site does not need to give credit for unoriginal information used as long as they provide a list of links to sites that provide similar information.
   
   
9
Websites that are designed to advertise and sell products are not considered reliable sources of information.
