Hetq Online or Hetq (Armenian: Հետք, meaning The Trace) is an online newspaper published in Yerevan by the Investigative Journalists NGO. It first appeared in 2001 in the Armenian language, and since 2002 it has been publishing in English as well.

Published as an online weekly until 2008, Hetq is now updated continuously and reaches about 3,000 readers daily, half of whom comes from outside of Armenia.[1]

Its annual budget reached €90,000 in 2007, the two thirds of which are covered by grants from the Organization for Security and Co-operation in Europe, among others.[1]

Students from the Department of Journalism at Yerevan State University receive practical experience by working with Hetq online.
