Now it is time to find the information you will need!
All citations for websites need a minimum of 5 pieces of information:
1. Webpage URL
2. Website name
3. Website publisher
4. Date of publication or copyright date
5. Webpage name or article title
If possible, you should also find:
6. The name of the author of the page or article

Where do I find the URL?
It is located at the top of the webpage in the address box:
![Page 11: How Do I Reference a Web Page](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070600/58ec8e581a28ab7f178b4599/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Where do I find the website name?Never take the website name from the URL. You will find it on the home-page of the website. The website name of this site is BBC.

Where do I find the publisher?
Usually at the bottom of the page!

And the date of publication?
That is also at the bottom of the page!
![Page 14: How Do I Reference a Web Page](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070600/58ec8e581a28ab7f178b4599/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)

That’s the publication date!
You should always use it instead of the copyright date from the bottom of the page!

It’s usually at the top of the page below the website name or at the head of the article somewhere on the page:
If you scroll down the page you will find this article on the leaders of Papua New Guinea, entitled Leaders. If you were using this article, that would be the title you put in your citation.

If you were citing the article at the top of the page...
Then here is the title:
