N2 - As more diverse information becomes available on the Web in terms of variety and quality, the need for support beyond current search engine technology for judging credibility of information grows. In this paper, we report a method for classifying information sender of web documents as a first step toward assessing information credibility based on characteristics of the information sender. We propose a method which identify the sender class of a given web document with relatively few information, i.e. its URL, title, and the title of its top page. The evaluation shows that with the proposed method we can classify the sender of web documents at above 70% accuracy with 30% coverage for unseen data.
