Other forms: homepages

A homepage is the front page of a website. Go to the homepage, the homepage design, set it as your homepage.

It matters far less than it did, since search now delivers most people straight to an inner page and never past the front. Setting a homepage in a browser is a habit that has almost disappeared.
