What does the resource say?
Can you verify facts? Are there citations? Does the website offer miracle cures? Be cautious of sites that claim to have a cure-for-all treatment.

Is this information up to date?
Where was it published?
Read the ‘about’ section of the website to verify what the website/organization does and purpose. Check the domain name to see if they are a government agency or commercial organization.
