How to set up Multiple Homepages in Firefox

As a power user, there is more than one website I want to launch after starting up Firefox. The only website that opens right now is my default homepage. So how do I set up multiple websites as my Homepage so that they would load every time I launch my Firefox browser. If you are still stuck in stone age and use Internet Explorer, you can and get a better and a more secure browser. Best of all, you get to use the tip which I am going to tell you below :)

This handy tip from Lifehacker makes it possible.

Step # 1: Go to FireFox Tools menu.

Step # 2: Hit Options then under options select Main or General(for older versions of Firefox)

Step # 3: In the Homepage area, you can enter the addresses of multiple websites all seperated from one anohter by a pipe | as shown below. Here I set Google and TechCounter as my homepages

Set multiple homepages in Firefox

Another way you can set multiple websites as Homepage on Firefox and launch all of them in one instance seperated by Tabs is open up a new instance of Firefox. One after another, go to the websites you want to set up as homepage opening them in separate tabs. Then go to firefox Tools, Options and under Main select Use Current Pages. This will automatically set all your current open pages in Firefox as homepage.

From Firefox’s Tools menu, Options, General, enter the addresses of sites separated by a pipe |, as shown above. Or, you can open up all the sites in tabs and hit the “Use Current Pages” button.
 

I use Firefox and have been a big fan of it since v 0.7. Yes, that was the first time I actually got to know more about Firefox which was sometime during the summer of 2004. I have flirted with Flock, Opera and gosh!! even Internet Explorer 7. But in the end, Firefox won out for its very impressive features. For Blogging, the spell correction is outstanding. So every time i launch a new instance of Firefox

    I just downloaded Firefox 3 and was wondering if I can have multiple homepages like I had on IE?

    Instead of having multiple start pages, I tend to like having a Start page instead with links to all of my favorite sites. That way Firefox loads up faster and you just have to click once to get to a site.

    That is really handy I didn’t know you could do that. I like how chrome gives you the option of 6 screens when you start up but this is nice for firefox.
