Notes:

Only use the web page category if the work cannot fit into another category.
The first example has a corporate author. See the Authors button below.
When the author name and site name are identical (as here, Autism CRC), omit the site name.
If no date is evident, use n.d. For more information see the APA blog post Webpage on a website.
If no title is evident, you may need to make one, include it in square brackets [Invented title].
If you cite multiple pages from a website, make a reference for each one.
Do not create a reference or in-text citation for a whole website (rather than referring to particular pages). Include the name of the website in the text and give the URL in brackets.
