How to Set Homepage on Firefox

The Homepage on Firefox is set to the New Tab page by default. It shows your preset search engine and some top websites you’ve visited. However, you can change this homepage to display any web page of your choice.

You can set the Homepage to a website you frequently need to visit when opening the browser or any search engine page you like. Anyway, let’s see how you can customize your homepage on different versions of Firefox.

Set Homepage on Desktop

There are two ways you can set up a custom homepage on the desktop version of Firefox. You can either use the Homepage settings or the Home icon on your toolbar to do so.

Using Homepage Settings

1. Click on the hamburger menu at the top right.
2. Select Settings.
   
3. Click on the Home tab in the left sidebar.
4. Next to Homepage and new windows, select Custom URLs.
   
5. Now, go to the webpage you want to set as the homepage and copy (Ctrl + C) its URL.
6. Paste (Ctrl +V) the URL in the text field.
   
7. Close Firefox settings. (This will automatically save your changes.)

You can also try setting multiple web pages as the homepage of your Firefox. Doing so will ensure all the webpages that are set as the homepage will get opened when starting Firefox.
