“What kind of doctor fixes broken websites?”/“A URLologist.”

A website riddle is:
 
Q: What kind of doctor fixes broken websites?
A: A URLologist.

 
“URLologist” combines “URL” (“Uniform Resource Locator” or “web address”) with “urologist.” The joke was posted on the newsgroup alt.folklore.science on October 13, 1998.
 
     
Wikipedia: URL
A Uniform Resource Locator (URL), colloquially termed a web address, is a reference to a web resource that specifies its location on a computer network and a mechanism for retrieving it. A URL is a specific type of Uniform Resource Identifier (URI), although many people use the two terms interchangeably. URLs occur most commonly to reference web pages (http), but are also used for file transfer (ftp), email (mailto), database access (JDBC), and many other applications.
 
Most web browsers display the URL of a web page above the page in an address bar.
 
Wikipedia: Urologist
Urology (from Greek οὖρον ouron “urine” and -λογία -logia “study of”), also known as genitourinary surgery, is the branch of medicine that focuses on surgical and medical diseases of the male and female urinary-tract system and the male reproductive organs. Organs under the domain of urology include the kidneys, adrenal glands, ureters, urinary bladder, urethra, and the male reproductive organs (testes, epididymis, vas deferens, seminal vesicles, prostate, and penis).
