How Can I Change My Homepage?

Whether you want to change your home page for something more useful or something a little more entertaining, we are going to look at the process of changing it within Mozilla Firefox, Google Chrome and Internet Explorer, as these are currently the most popular web browsers. We will start with Mozilla Firefox.

Open up the Firefox browser, in the top left of the screen there should be an orange button with the word 'Firefox' on, click this button to open up the main menu, from there you will want to click the Options button which will open a menu interface. Across the top of this interface will be a number of tabs, select the General tab and there will be an area to type your wanted homepage URL in. Once done click the OK button at the bottom of the menu screen, your Firefox homepage will now be changed.

Next we will look at the Google Chrome browser. Open up the browser and look for the small spanner icon in the top right of the screen, click this to get a drop down menu, from there select Settings. You will now see a list of options to customize the Google Chrome browser, under the On Start up header tick the radio button that says open a specific page or set of pages and then click the Set Pages button, now you can add the URL of the website you want to open on start up. Once you have entered the website simply click OK and exit out of the browser, when you reopen Chrome the home page will be set.

Lastly we will look at how to change the home page in Microsoft Internet Explorer. When you open the browser look for the small cog icon in the top right of the screen, it basically looks like a small circle, click this and select Internet Options, make sure you are under the General tab and just like Firefox you can now type the URL in the space provided. Once done click the OK button and exit out of the browser. The home page will now be set to your custom choice.

With Firefox and Internet Explorer, if you navigate to a website first, you can enter the options in the same way listed above, but instead of typing your custom URL, you can simply click the use current page button, this will set your home page to the current page you are visiting.
