Look for the ending of the website (ex. .com, .gov, .edu)
Usually .gov, .edu, and .org endings are the most likely ones to be credible.

Answer:

She could search for an author or a list of sources.

Explanation:

<em>While doing research, it is crucial to acknowledge the sources that are authentic and credible to back the argument effectively and persuade the readers to believe the author.</em> One wrong source may mislead and disappoint the audience. Thus, <em>Zoe needs to check the reliability of the online source which she could confirm through the author named in the article or the list of sources that has been mentioned in the references. This would not only help her check the credibility of the source but also to know about the context of the resource and the author's views on it. </em>
