Websites
Definition
Websites are typically dedicated to a particular topic or purpose, such as news,
education, commerce, entertainment, or social networking. Hyperlinking between
web pages guides the navigation of the site, which often starts with a home
page.
Users can access websites on a range of devices, including desktops, laptops,
tablets, and smartphones. The software application used on these devices is
called a web browser.
While "web site" was the original spelling (sometimes capitalized "Web site",
since "Web" is a proper noun when referring to the World Wide Web), this variant
has become rarely used, and "website" has become the standard spelling. All
major style guides, such as The Chicago Manual of Style have reflected this
change.

Websites again
Websites can be used in various fashions: a personal website, a corporate website
for a company, a government website, an organization website, etc. Websites can
be the work of an individual, a business or other organization, and are
typically dedicated to a particular topic or purpose. Any website can contain a
hyperlink to any other website, so the distinction between individual sites, as
perceived by the user, can be blurred.
Some websites require user registration or subscription to access content.
Examples of subscription websites include many business sites, news websites,
academic journal websites, gaming websites, file-sharing websites, message
boards, web-based email, social networking websites, websites providing
real-time stock market data, as well as sites providing various other services.
