Abstract

The availability and growth of the Internet offers the opportunity to find information from all over the world. In addition, the development of the World Wide Web has made the Internet easier to use, both for finding information and for publishing it electronically. Because so much information is available and because that information can result in a wide range of quality, it is necessary to evaluate what you find. This study discusses and shows the indicators of information and web site quality and the criteria more frequently used to assess information found on the Internet. (Author)
