# Navigate to a Web Page

The navigation service supports different kinds of pages in Lightning. Each page reference type supports a different set of attributes and state properties.

Instead of using `force:navigateToURL`, we recommend navigating to web pages using the `lightning:navigate` component with the `standard__webPage` page type.

This code shows examples of navigating to a web page using the old `force:navigateToURL` event.

```nolang
// Old way to navigate to a web page
$A.get("markup://force:navigateToURL").setParams({ 
    url: 'https://salesforce.com', 
}).fire();
```

Replace the previous code that uses `force:navigateToURL` with the following code. This example shows how to navigate to a web page using the `standard__webPage` page type. It assumes that you added `<lightning:navigation aura:id="navigationService" />` in your component markup.

```javascript
cmp.find("navigationService").navigate({ 
    type: "standard__webPage", 
    attributes: { 
        url: 'https://salesforce.com' 
    } 
});
```
