Citing an entire website? Under APA, you may simply include the web address in parentheses in the text of your paper. However, some professors may still want you to include a citation your reference page. Additionally, if you reference specific information or quote from a website, you should include a full citation in your reference page.
Website citations vary widely, depending on the amount of information that is available to cite. Here are some examples:
