You should say:

You should say:

• What it is about
• How you found out about it

What it is about

One website that I often visit is BBC News. It is an international news platform that provides updates on current affairs, politics, science, technology, and culture from all over the world.

How you found out about it

I first came across this website during my school days when my teacher recommended it to improve my English and stay updated with global news. Later, I also noticed that many competitive exam preparation guides suggested BBC News for reliable information.

How often you visit it

I visit the website almost every day, usually in the morning while having breakfast or in the evening after work. Sometimes I even check it multiple times a day if there is some breaking news or an important global event.

And explain why you often visit it

The main reason I use this website regularly is because it is trustworthy and well-written. It not only helps me stay informed but also improves my vocabulary and reading skills, as the articles are written in clear and professional English. Another reason is that it covers a wide range of topics like health, environment, and education, which keeps my knowledge updated. I feel it is a very useful source of learning and awareness.
