Helpful Tip!
Where can I find the date of a Web page?
Usually the date is available at the bottom of the Web page. It may state last updated, last modified or last reviewed.
Hint!
If there is no date available then use (n.d.) for no date.
Tip!
Include the title of the blog message post as well as the URL. You do not italicize the titles for items in online communities such as blogs, newsgroups or forum. If the author’s name is not available, provide the screen name.
