How to Cite an Internet Source

1. Name the author, first name first. If no author is listed, then skip this step.
2. Put the title of the work next. This is not the title of the website but the title
of the page within the website that you are accessing. Put this information in
quotation marks.
3. Italicize overall website name. Look at the web address or find the link to
the homepage to find the title.
4. List the publication information. If you cannot find the publication
information write, n.p. Most articles (or web pages) have a last updated
date if you cant find an actual date for the specific article you are quoting. If
you cannot find a last updated date, write n.d.
5. Include the date of access. This is the date you accessed the Internet
source.
6. Check your Internet citation for accuracy. The final Internet source citation
should look like this:
