How do you find these things for citing a online source?

I've done my fair share of research papers as well, including the citing. Most websites don't have the author's name available, and it really doesn't matter if you can't find it. My teacher, and every teacher I've ever known, lets anything that can't be accessed be skipped. When you are citing the source, just skip the author's name. If you really think the author is listed somewhere, give the cite's name and i'll look for it. Scroll to the bottom of the page to check for the other stuff. Title of article is the bold or italicized heading before the article starts. Site title you'll probably find an icon and then the site's name, or even look for the main part of the website's name, also known as the domain. Last updated will typically be at the top, near the beginning of the article, so look there. Sponsoring organization, pretty much the site title, unless it says "sponsored by..." Date accessed is when you went on to the website. Good website for citation maker.

Google MLA works cited, tons of pages come up. To do it right try to stick with the english departments of colleges websites. If you cant find the information your supposed to just skip it and move on to the next thing you do have. The problem with that is you might be citing unreliable sources like wikipedia or some biased non sense. Stick to scholarly articles if you can.

The MLA handbook will walk you through it step by step.

You can get it from a library if you don't want to buy it!

For google search MLA people make web pages to help out with citing to!
