Help! I'm not sure if my website is reliable or not!



Hello Brewery blog readers! For today's blog I am sharing a video on how to teach you if a website comes from a reliable domain source. In the video I discuss several different types of domain sources and how to tell if they are dependable sources of information. Websites ending in .edu or .gov domain extensions are more solid sources since they are educational institutions or government websites. While domains like .edu or .gov are generally more reliable, they still need to be critically evaluated for accurate content. Websites like .com or .net may not be your most factual domain extensions because they are profit driven and require careful evaluation. Using the information I share in the video helps us become savvy, critical users of online material. Happy information hunting!
