How to: Add a HOME Button to Safari

If you’re like me, you like access to a starting point when surfing the web – incase you get lost on a web site.

Unfortunately, when users go into Safari, they don’t see the HOME button by default.  One must add it to the top of the web browser.  It’s easy to add it:

1. Click View > Customize Toolbar.
2. From the list of available options, find the HOME button.
3. Click it, and drag it to where you’d like it on the Safari’s toolbar.

Now suppose you don’t like Safari’s default home page option.  Here’s how to change that:

1. Click Safari > Preferences.
2. Make sure the General icon is selected at the top-left of the window.
3. In the Home Page field, type the URL of the page that you wish to have as your Home [start] page.
