Simple, Easy-to-Read Homepage

Do you prefer having a homepage that stays out of your way, doesn't change, and is fast? This is what I had in mind when creating the "classic" version of the popular Best Homepage Ever. I realized when I updated the site in a major way, that a LOT of users missed the original — plain, quick, and always right where they left it. Open the page, click a site. No distractions, fluff, ads, or clutter.

Two versions — choose the one that fits you

Best Homepage Ever comes in two versions. Classic is the simpler of the two: the sites you want are named in plain text inside labelled boxes, so you can read the page at a glance instead of hunting through icons.

The Classic homepage: one search box above twelve labelled boxes — Shop/Buy, Social, Popular, Sports, Travel, Movies/TV, Tech/News, Food, Finance, Entertainment, A.I. and Health — each listing a few websites by name in plain text.
Classic. Everything named in plain text, sorted into boxes. Nothing moves around from one visit to the next.
The main Best Homepage Ever site: a Google search bar and a row of category tabs above roughly forty small app-style icon tiles, laid over a full-screen photo background.
Best Homepage Ever. The full version, with icon tiles, widgets and a lot more to explore — and more to set up.

Who Classic is for

Generally, Classic was designed and maintained for those of you who want a homepage that doesn't change much, and has very little complexity. Personally, I've created BOTH to be easy to use. But I realized that there are a certain % of people who don't like technology to change rapidly. I do understand that honestly. This is why I created and maintain the Classic version. My promise is to keep it exactly the way it is!

Further, I've kept the layout as plain and straightforward as possible.

What's on the page

  • Popular websites, sorted into boxes. Shopping, Sports, Travel, Food, Finance, Health and more. Click a name to go straight there.
  • One search box. Search with any of the popular search engines.
  • Weather, email and maps. See the weather for your location, check your email, or get directions.
  • A new picture every day. A landscape photo across the top that changes daily.

Have Classic open every time you start your browser. My step-by-step guide covers Chrome, Edge, Firefox, Safari, iPhone, iPad and Android. It works just as well if you're setting it up for someone else.
