Is there any difference between Web Site and Website?
While "website" and "Web site" mean the same thing—referring to a collection of webpages accessible online—the way they are written has evolved over time.
- Web site (two words) was the more common spelling in the early days of the internet, especially in formal writing.
- Website (one word) is now the standard form, widely accepted and used in modern English.
Most style guides and dictionaries have adopted "website" as the preferred spelling. So if you're writing today, "website" is the best choice.
