MLA 9 Citation Style: Website with an Author’s/Contributor’s Name

WCCC Student's Guide to MLA 9

Website vs. Web Page

It is a good idea to keep in mind the difference between a website and a web page.  A website is the entire hosting site and a web page is a single area of the site.  For example, when looking at the American Psychological Association website (apa.org), you might find a web page on the site for bipolar disorder. Please make sure you are using the correct citation!
