(1) i think it's traditionally "on a page" but then what if we are talking about electronic pages for web sites? do we use "on" or "in?"
for example:
"how many words are on this web page?"
"how many words are in this web page?"
or both works?
(2) another question: how about for web sites?
do we say "in a web site" or "on a web site?"

Either is OK. Just like you could say, how many words are on the paper, or how many are in the paper.

I'm sure either one works.
"On a web page" and "on a website" sounds a lot better in my opinion.
