If it's a .gov or .org it's most likely a credible site. Also look at the bottom of the page, it will often give you the date it was made and the date it was refreshed with new info. It'll also give you the name of the creator/ author which you need. Also check the information with other sources like books and such. If information doesn't quite add up or make sense it's not credible.

As you browse the website to evaluate if the source is reliable and credible: source's author, publication source with latest updations, and author's motivation for creating the source.
