Determine if the website you are using is credible enough to include in your work. Websites such as Wikipedia or other sites where anyone can edit an article are usually not a good choice. Official websites, such as the website of the American Heart Association, or newspaper or magazine articles published on the Web are good sources.
Gather as much information about the website as you can to use in your work. You will need to look for the author of the webpage or the article, the date it was last updated, the title of the page or article and the URL address. Copy as much of this information down as possible.
When using information from the webpage in your work, whether it is directly quoted or paraphrased, you need to cite the source in the text. In order to do this, add parentheses after your information. Inside the parentheses, type the author of the webpage, the year of publication and the page number, if there is one. If you do not know the author, use the title of the webpage. Separate each item with a comma.
Include the webpage in your list of references at the end of the paper. First type the author of the webpage. You can use an organization or company name if there is no individual author listed. Type a comma, then enter the date the page was updated in parentheses. If you cannot find a date, type (n.d.). Type a period, then the title of the page followed by another period. Finally, enter the URL address of the page.
