How do APA and MLA citations differ?
The two styles order the same information differently:
- APA 7 (website): Khan, Ahmed (2026). How to calculate your aggregate. Students Awaz. https://…
- MLA 9 (website): Khan, Ahmed. "How to calculate your aggregate." Students Awaz, 2026, https://….
- APA 7 (book): Author (Year). Title in italics. Publisher.
APA is standard in sciences and social sciences; MLA in languages and humanities. Your course outline states which one your teacher expects.
Frequently Asked Questions
What if a website has no author?
Start the citation with the title, keep the year (or n.d. for no date in APA), and continue as normal — leave the author box empty here.
What does n.d. mean in a citation?
"No date" — APA uses it when a source shows no publication year. The generator inserts it automatically when you leave the year blank.
Should the title be italicized?
Book titles: yes in both styles. Website page titles: plain in APA, in quotation marks in MLA — the generator formats this for you.
Is this enough for my bibliography?
For websites and books, yes. Journals, videos and interviews have extra fields — add volume/issue details manually per your style guide.
