Bad Websites! Are websites reliable?

How can you tell if a website is a good or bad website?

 


Are websites reliable?

These are question's I always ask myself.... How do I know if I can trust information on a particular website? Is the information factual?

EasyWhoIs

I recently found a web source that let's me check the reliability of a website. If I have a website that I need to reference from I go on EasyWhoIs which then allows me to see the user domain of the website, author, date that the website was created  and also the creator of the website and his/her records of online creations and so on ....

 

WOT

WOT stands for web of trust. This is another source that shows if websites are trustworthy. WOT rates other websites through red being not trustworthy, yellow to be cautious and green to be trustworthy.  It is a way to make sure my browsing is safe. This is simple and easy to use. It can put up a block on my computer when I click on bad websites. So this is very handy for people who are not sure about computers and who are not sure on what sources and websites to trust.
