Basically, the rate at which a site becomes a cobweb site depends on how timely its viewers expect it to be. A site displaying daily sports scores may be considered a cobweb site within a week, whereas a site devoted to ancient Greek poetry may go years before viewers notice it hasn’t been updated. Common signs of a cobweb site are: A copyright date that is several years in the past A lack of content post dates within the current year 1990s design touches like animated GIFs, visible tables to create columns, a Netscape button, etc. Animated wallpaperAdvertisement
