With the adoption of Semantic Web technologies, an increasing number of\nvocabularies and ontologies have been developed in different domains, ranging\nfrom Biology to Agronomy or Geosciences. However, many of these ontologies are\nstill difficult to find, access and understand by researchers due to a lack of\ndocumentation, URI resolving issues, versioning problems, etc. In this chapter\nwe describe guidelines and best practices for creating accessible,\nunderstandable and reusable ontologies on the Web, using standard practices and\npointing to existing tools and frameworks developed by the Semantic Web\ncommunity. We illustrate our guidelines with concrete examples, in order to\nhelp researchers implement these practices in their future vocabularies.\n
