Use the webpages and websites category only if there is no other reference category that fits, and the work has no parent or overarching publication (e.g. journals, reports, social media, conference papers) other than the website itself.
PDFs from websites are usually articles or reports. Use the appropriate reference type to reference PDFs you are using.
If you use multiple webpages from a website, create a reference for each.
If you mention a website in general, do not create a reference list entry, instead include the name of the website in the text and provide the URL in parentheses - for examples:
