A method and an apparatus for accessing a website. A specific implementation of the method includes: receiving an access request for the website, the access request comprising a source network address of the access request and a network address of the website; detecting whether the source network address and the network address of the website belong to a same Internet service provider; determining a target inter-network node from a preset inter-network node set in response to detecting the source network address and the network address of the website not belonging to the same Internet service provider, the target inter-network node being an inter-network node connecting a network of an Internet service provider to which the source network address belongs and a network of an Internet service provider to which the network address of the website belongs; and transmitting the access request to the target inter-network node. This implementation improves the speed for accessing a website.
