Internetseite vs Seite
page / side
'die Seite' and 'die Internetseite' can both mean something on the internet that you open in a browser. 'Internetseite' is more specific, because it is immediately clear that it refers to the internet. 'Seite' is shorter and often sounds natural in conversation when the context is already clear, for example on a computer or phone. Learners may confuse the words because 'Seite' also has many other meanings, such as a page in a book or a left and right side. If there is no internet context, 'Internetseite' is clearer.
Internetseite
Auf der Internetseite der Stadt findet man die aktuellen Öffnungszeiten.
You can find the current opening hours on the city's website.
Seite
Kannst du die Seite noch einmal öffnen? Ich habe den Link vergessen.
