Online Job Resources

You can tell a great deal about a site by looking at its URL or Uniform Resource Locator. The URL is the address of a Web page, which defines for the browser the route to take to find the page. Web page URLs are easy to figure out if you remember the following:

º	Web URLs begin with http:// which simply means that a communications method called HyperText Transport Protocol is being used to request and transport the page. You don't need to type these characters. Your Web browser will assume the URL begins with http:// and will display these characters for you automatically.
º	Many pages use the letters www for World Wide Web at the beginning of their name, though many just omit the acronym. Browsers can find the pages either way. For example, www.go.com and go.com both work just fine.
º	URLs that end in .com usually belong to commercial or business sites.
º	URLs that end in .us belong to sites located in the United States.
º	URLs that end in .gov denote government sites.
º	URLs that end in .mil belong to military sites.
