AboutUs is building a guide to websites.

Domain pages are the main type of page on AboutUs.org. A domain pages describes and links to a domain, or website. These pages are editable by clicking on one of the edit pencils.

To go to a domain page on AboutUs simply search for the website (like "example.com") at the top right of each page.

We link back to the website that the DomainPage references in at least two places by default (pictured at right). More links to the website can be added by editing the wiki section of the page.

The other types of pages on AboutUs.org:

Personal (user) pages, a profile page for editors on AboutUs.org

-==We Link To Websites==
-One of the foundations of AboutUs is that we are a '''socially editable directory of the internet'''.  To find a DomainPage on AboutUs simply type it into the search bar and hit '''Find!'''.  For instance, if you're looking for AboutUs, type '''AboutUs.org'''.
-We have four ways that we link back to the website a wiki page references.  The page name, the thumbnail, the link above the thumbnail, and ''read more'' in the main text.  The latter can be removed by editing the page.
