  • how to change the home page on Yandex

The home page is the web page that, by default, is displayed first when you launch your browser. If your keyboard has multimedia keys, it probably has a button for instant launch, which is very handy. Sometimes the settings get lost, but it is always possible to restore them.

Instructions

Changing the home page, or the launch page could have happened when you were, for example, in a search engine and accidentally clicked the link "Set as home page". The first and easiest option to return everything as it was is the presence of such a link on your site. If you do not remember the exact address of the site, and it is not saved in your bookmarks (or in the "Favorites"), you can find it by name using the same search engines: Yandex, Google, Rambler, etc. If the site does not have a link "Set as home page", you will have to go to your browser settings.

Internet Explorer. The transition to the settings is done by clicking on the gear icon. Click "Internet Options", and in the line "Home" enter the desired address. If you are on the page you want, click the Current option. Then click OK.

Opera. Click on the browser icon at the top, select "Settings", then - "General settings", in the "General" tab in the "Home" line, type in the address of the desired page. To quickly bring up the General Settings menu, you can use the keyboard shortcut Ctrl + F12. Click "OK" to save. If you are on your page, click "Current page" and the browser will automatically fill in its address.

Setting up in the Mozilla Firefox browser is also quite simple. On the top panel, select the "Tools" tab, then - "Settings", a window will open, open the "General" section in it. In the line "Home page" enter its address. It can also be entered manually, copied from the clipboard, or select one of the options: "Use the current page", "Use bookmark", "Restore by default". To set a saved bookmark as the home page, use the middle button, indicating the location of the desired bookmark. Click on it, then add it to the line of the main page of the browser.

Google Chrome. You need to find the icon in the form of a wrench. Click it and in the new window select the "Settings" option. The first window that opens after clicking is the main settings section. In the first parameter - "Start group" - check the box "Home". Just below, enter the page address in the empty field. This is the page you will see when the browser loads.

  • how to change the home page of yandex

The search engine is one of the most popular. In order not to type the site address in the address bar every time, it is convenient to make Yandex a start page.

You will need

  • - computer;
  • - one of the Internet browsers: Internet Explorer, Opera, Mozilla Firefox, Google Chrome.

Hello friends. Today I will show you how to make the Yandex site the start page of your browser. Despite the fact that it is not difficult to implement this feature, many novice Internet users do not know where and with the help of what it is done.

Most of the people who speak Russian use Yandex as a search engine. This search engine has a lot of advantages - it is a good quality of search results, and a pleasant appearance, and a large set of related services, and a convenient home page.

In general, the Yandex start page compares favorably with its main competitor Google in terms of information content. It is easy to get to all search engine services from the page, it is supplemented by various widgets and modules that provide quick reference information. In addition, these blocks can also be customized according to your wishes and preferences.

For example, I also use Yandex as the start page of my browsers. One of the widgets that I added to myself is a random aphorism, sometimes it is interesting to read something unusual. I also installed a module from Yandex.webmaster, checking fines and others.

I will show you how to add these blocks at the end of the article, but for now let's move on to.

Application for installing Yandex.ru home page

The easiest way to make Yandex your start page is to use an application developed by Yandex itself. You can download the application on this site - http://home.yandex.ru/

It automatically replaces the home page of all your browsers with the Yandex one. No haemorrhoids and manual settings are required.

If for some reason the application did not work or you don’t want to use it, then we can make the necessary settings manually in each browser separately. I'll show you how to do it.

Setting up the start page in Mozilla Firefox

I'll start with this browser, as I use it most often. The entire setup procedure for it will take 20 seconds. To do this, you need to open the browser itself. Further, in the upper right corner we find the "open menu" icon (in the current version it looks like three horizontal stripes). Click on this button and in the drop-down menu we are looking for an icon in the form of a gear - these are settings.

There are many sections in the settings menu, the very first of which is "Basic" (looks like a light switch). This section contains what we need. In the line “When Firefox starts”, select “Show home page”. In the line "Home page" you need to enter the address of the site that we want to make the starting one (in our case, http://yandex.ru). Press the "OK" button and that's it - the operation is complete.

Installing Yandex with the start page in Google Chrome

Setting up your home page in Google Chrome is just as easy. We open the browser, in the same upper right corner we are looking for a button in the form of three horizontal lines with the name “Configuring and managing Google Chrome”. In the drop-down menu that appears on the screen when you press the button, we find the "Settings" item and go to the corresponding section.

On this page we are looking for the "Appearance" section, put a tick in front of the item - Show the "Home page" button. In order to set or change the address of the main page on Yandex, you need to click on the "Change" link and, in the window that opens, specify the address you need.

How to put the start page in Internet Explorer

As in all previous cases, setting up the home page in the Internet Explorer browser is very simple. We open the program, in the upper right corner we find the icon in the form of a gear and in the drop-down list select "Browser properties".

In the properties of the browser, the "General" tab will open and at the very top of this tab there is a field for start pages. In the window we enter the address - http://yandex.ru, put a full stop opposite “Start from home page” and press the “Apply” button. If you need to set a different start page, then repeat the procedure by specifying a different address in the window.

How to make Yandex your start page in Opera

Moving on to one of the most popular browsers. The Opera has a lot of fans and it would not hurt them to know about the settings of their favorite web browser. To configure, run the program, enter the browser menu (the button labeled Opera and the big red letter O in the upper left corner) and select "Settings" in this menu. You can make the transition to the settings a little faster using the hotkeys Alt + P.

The second item in the settings menu is "At startup". At this point, we need to select the following option - "Open a specific page or several pages." In order to specify a specific address for opening, click on the "Set pages" link. In the window that appears, indicate the address of the site that should open when the browser starts.

Start page in Yandex browser - change by trick

Frankly, I do not use this browser, since my experiment showed that it works much slower than competitors (I wrote about this), and in appearance the Yandex browser does not differ from Google Chrome. But for this article, I installed it and am doing an overview along with other popular programs for the Internet.

Despite the fact that Yandex browser is based on the Chrome engine, it does not allow you to create a start page using standard methods. It allows you to either show the start page with bookmarks, or open the tabs left over from the last time and, only if they are not there, automatically loads the Yandex search engine (without the ability to choose another).

There is a way to customize the start site by manually modifying the browser files, but I would not advise unprepared people to climb there.

We'll go the other way - apply a little trick, which will make any site a home page.

For it to work, we need to do the following:

1. Configure the display of the quick access page upon opening

We open the program, in the upper right corner we find the button "Yandex browser settings" (three horizontal stripes). In the drop-down menu, select the "Settings" item.

The first thing that is written in this paragraph, "Where to start?" Everything is saved here automatically, you do not need to press a button.

2. Set up the start page of the Yandex browser

We open the site that we want to make the home page (yandex.ru). Right-click on the tab of this site in the top panel of the Yandex browser. In the drop-down menu, click "pin tab".

That's all. Now, every time you open the browser, the tab that you pinned will open.

If you want to remove the home page, you can also right-click and select "unpin tab". To install a new page, repeat the entire procedure described in this section.

Customizing the Yandex page

Not everyone knows that you can customize the home page of this search engine for yourself. Now you will know it, and hopefully use it.

This setting is done in 2 steps.

Step 1. Yandex account

You need to create an account with this search engine. This is done by opening a mailbox. The mailbox address will be your login for all services, and the password, respectively, will be your password.

All our settings will take effect only when we are authorized in the system.

Now you can go to the settings.

Step 2. Settings

There are several sections.

"Put the topic"- the name corresponds to the function being performed - you can apply the unique design of the Yandex website by choosing the appropriate one from dozens of possible options.

"Add widget"- this is the function that I talked about at the beginning. an information block that you can place on your page. There are a lot of widget options.

"Configure Yandex"- this item allows you to move the widgets you use across the page, placing them as you like.

"Change city"- most often the search engine automatically detects the region in which you entered the Internet, but this is not always convenient (that in different regions different sites are issued for the same requests). You can be in Saratov on a business trip, but want to watch information about your native Khabarovsk - set the desired city and enjoy.

Today we will partially consider the Yandex search engine.
Its main page is the face of the entire system and literally a portal to the wonderful world of the search engine,
occupying a leading position in Runet. There is no point in talking about the reasons for leadership now,
because the topic of our article is somewhat different, but if in a couple of words, then Yandex:

  • Helps the user
  • Friendly even for beginners
  • Easy to use
  • Uses a unique ranking system
  • Has its own path of development and tries to bring something new.

The launch of the system took place back in the distant ninety-seventh year during a presentation at
exhibition Softool. And already at that time Yandex was coping without any problems
with the morphology of the Russian language, I was looking for the information necessary for the user, taking into account the distance.
And also had its own algorithm for the relevance of a particular page of each site that was indexed.

First acquaintance with the main page

To get to the Yandex home page,
just enter www Yandex or www Yandex ru or ru in the search bar of the browser.
Well, if you are generally lazy or you are full of impatience to enjoy a hitherto unseen sight
- just write "Yandex" and click on the first link that will appear in the search.




Yandex home page


So, we are on the main page. I must say that since its inception, this search engine
the main page changed very often. And all because the developers carefully monitor
following current trends and the desires of users.
They literally track all the clicks on the links on the page, pay attention to the fact that
which parts of the page a person most often pays attention to, and so on.
Based on all this, as a constructor, the page is assembled,
which most closely matches what we used to call the word
"Convenience" or "comfort". When you get to the page for the first time, the first thing you do is pay attention to the very top,
where a bar pops up offering to download an adapted browser
Yandex. Browser equipped with special protection technology.


Downloading Yandex.Browser


Advice! Despite the fact that Yandex.Browser is well developed and "sharpened"
for all the desires of a simple user, someone will not want to download it, and the top bar
will distract from important information. In this case, it will be possible to pay attention to
the upper right corner of the page, where there is a "Close" button, made in the form of a cross.
Click on it and you will no longer see the annoying strip,
suggesting to take an action that is unnecessary for you.

Of course, after a while it may appear again, but you will already know for sure
what to do with it. Well, or she will convince you and you still decide to download Yandex Browser, at least for fun.

User-friendly columns

Bottom of the Yandex home page

At the very bottom of the page, there is practically nothing useful for a simple user,
however, experienced users will find the links therein important and useful.
Among them is a link to Yandex. Direct (by the way, it is this system that brings the lion's share of the profit to the search engine),
a link to the metric and to the page with the order of advertising.
And this is only on the left side.
On the right side you can find a button in the form of a question mark, which will transfer to the page
with FAQ on the system and its services. Next, there is a support button, links to a job page, a Yandex blog,
the page "Company" and, of course, at the very end is the copyright of Yandex,
so that no one could doubt who exactly is the owner of this page.
