Website evaluation is slightly different than evaluating print resources. There are a couple of more aspects to consider.

The main points to consider when evaluating websites are:

• Accuracy
  Is the information presented accurate (any obvious inaccuracies showing?) Can you reasonably trust the author and content of the page?
• Authority
  What are the author's credentials? What URL domain is it originating from?
• Objectivity
  Are there lots of advertising? Is the information presented in an objective way?
• Currency
  When was the page last updated? Are there dead links on the page?
• Coverage
  Do you have to pay to view information? Do you need special software to view the page?
