A webpage Bookmark is a locally saved web page or URI in a browser for later reference of that webpage. This is a useful tool in a web browser when it comes to surfing a lot of web pages and you find some useful pages that you might probably like to come back later for a visit. It is simple to bookmark a web page rather than noting it down in a piece of paper or a notepad. When using the bookmarks, you do not need to type the entire address of your favorite web page as it has been already saved and you only need to click your bookmarked web page.
All major browsers have a bookmarking facility for saving web pages. Different web browsers call it in different ways, in Mozilla Firefox it is called as Bookmarks, in Internet Explorer it is called as Favorites, Google Chrome call it as Bookmark manager, while Opera name it simply as Bookmarks and Apple Safari too call it as Bookmarks.
The bookmark window comes with a default list of bookmarks along with the browser. It contains all the important bookmarks that the browser company recommends for you. Other than that, it also contains options for the most visited bookmarks, recently bookmarked web pages, recent tags etc. The bookmark window has all the provision for organizing the web pages like adding new bookmarks, creating new folders, moving web pages from one folder to another and also it has all the editing functions like in any other application. The bookmarks can also be listed and sorted out by different tab indexes.
Another aspect of bookmark is that the bookmarked web pages can be grouped inside folders and sub folders precisely according to its topic. Bookmarks can also be exported into a file using an export option, which can later be loaded using an import option to bring it back as bookmarks in the Bookmarks Window. This is helpful when you are uninstalling your web browser and reinstalling it or even formatting your hard drive. Save your bookmarks safely in a suitable folder of your windows drive.
You can bookmark a web page by pressing Ctrl + D which is universal in almost all web browsers and select the folder you need the bookmark to be in. You can also alternatively use your mouse or keyboard to select the menu option for bookmarking a webpage.
