FOUR USEFUL CHECKS

From a category
to the right destination.

The portal gives you context before the external click. Current conditions and sensitive instructions must still be confirmed with the destination publisher.

  1. 01
    Choose a subject

    Start with the category that matches your practical need rather than the name of a platform.

  2. 02
    Read the record

    Use the publisher, description, country and topic tags to understand what the resource covers.

  3. 03
    Check the destination

    Confirm that the external domain matches the publisher and service you intended to reach.

  4. 04
    Verify changing details

    Review current dates, prices, availability, terms and sensitive instructions on the destination website.

QUESTIONS

Useful scope.
Clear limits.

What is included in the World Web Certified directory?

The directory contains 222 useful starting-point websites across 13 subjects, including public services, health, education, media, culture, search, digital tools, travel, consumer information, science and sport.

Are directory entries certifications or rankings?

No. Inclusion is an editorial orientation choice, not a technical certification, commercial ranking or guarantee covering every page and service on the external website.

Why do the detailed records open in French?

The detailed editorial records are currently maintained in French. This English page translates the subjects and each website summary before you open a record.

How should I verify an important destination?

Check the domain, publisher and purpose described in the record, then confirm current terms, dates and sensitive information on the destination website before acting.

How can I report an error in a record?

Use the Contact page and provide the relevant URL, the inaccurate passage and a supporting source when possible.
