Sizing up a Website

[Dimandja]

The following link can be called a website.

http://webweb.com

Is this next link a website, or a page,or something else?

http://webweb.com/mydir/mypage.html

What about this one?

http://webweb.com/mydir

They are all websites, as they are sites (or places, or positions, or areas, or ...) on the web. Whether they consist of one or multiple pages is, I think, irrelevant.

Let me clarify my question a bit. This may not necessarily affect your answer, CorBlimeyLimey.

Here are my examples:

http://webweb.com

http://webweb.com/mydir

http://webweb.com/mydir/mypage.html

They all point to the same website, as is my intention for the purpose of this question.

But, when specifically talking about each link, I have a problem describing the last one as a website, because it obviously is one page of a website. Granted, a website can consist of only one page.
