The Web (or World Wide Web) is made up of web pages that show text and pictures. It’s a big collection of connected documents. These pages often have links (called hyperlinks) that you can click to go to related information. A group of pages that are about the same topic is called a website, and the main page of a website is called the home page.
The Web was invented by Tim Berners-Lee, an English computer scientist. He teaches at the University of Oxford and the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT).
