This is a list of genealogy web portals, sites on the web that are large curated sets of links to genealogy resources. This list should not overlap with list of general genealogy databases, as the items here are not associated with specific databases of genealogy information. Only the largest of the web genealogy portals which transcend national boundaries, family lines, and time periods should appear here, as there are many thousands of minor portals.

This is an incomplete list, which may never be able to satisfy certain standards for completeness. Revisions and sourced additions are welcome.
