Morphology

webpage = web + page (transparent) = web + page

The compound 'web' + 'page' directly denotes a page on the World Wide Web and is immediately inferable from its parts.

Etymology

Webpage comes from web, like a spider's web or a net that 'connects' things, and page, a sheet of paper or a 'page' in a book. So a webpage is a single page or document on the web, which is why you open it with a browser.
