On some pages, reviews may be considered MC, and on other pages they may be considered SC. Use your best judgment and think about the purpose of the page. Do not worry too much about identifying every little part of the page. Think about which parts of the page are the MC. Next, look for the Ads. Anything left over can be considered SC.

2.5 Understanding the Website Pages often make more sense when viewed as part of a website. Some of the criteria in Page Quality rating are based on the website the page belongs to. In order to understand a website, look for information about the website on the website itself. Websites are usually very eager to tell you all about themselves! You must also look for reputation information about the website. What do outside, independent sources say about the website? When there is disagreement between what the website says about itself and what reputable independent sources say about the website, trust the independent sources. 2.5.1 Finding the Homepage The homepage of a website usually contains or has links to important information about the website. Webmasters usually make it easy to get to the homepage of the website from any page on the site. Here's how to find the homepage of a website: ● Examine the landing page of the URL in your PQ rating task. ● Find and click on the link labeled <home= or <main page.= ● Having trouble finding it? Try using <Ctrl-F= (<command-F= on a Mac) to search the page for the text <home= or <main.= You may also try clicking on the website logo, which is usually at the top of the page. Sometimes, you may be given a webpage or website that appears to have no navigation links, no homepage link, and no logo or other means to find the homepage. Even some High or Highest quality pages lack a way to navigate to the homepage. If you can't find a link to the homepage, modify the URL by removing everything to the right of <.com,= <.org,= <.net,= <.info,= etc. and refresh the page. Occasionally, your rating task will include a URL for which there are two or more justifiable <homepage= candidates. For example, you may not be sure whether the homepage of the URL https://finance.yahoo.com/calendar is http://finance.yahoo.com or http://www.yahoo.com. Important : When you have more than one homepage <candidate,= please use whichever one offers the most information about the specific webpage in the rating task. Use your judgment. The goal is to understand the webpage and the website(s) it is associated with, not find the one unique, correct homepage.
