Accuracy
Do multiple sources have the same content? Check for it! If it is not the same, then it is clearly not very reliable.
Does the author tell you where they found the information? Look for the source list or look for citations throughout the website!

Who wrote it? Is that person an expert? Is it REALLY trustable? This reminds me of the first notes we took! People and places that you trust are more likely reliable! Children can make websites to for school, which they do good at, but little kids are not very trustworthy for the information you need.
