Set your homepage in Firefox

One setting covers your homepage and new windows. Making new tabs open it too is recommended.

Open your homepage in new tabs Recommended

Firefox's New tabs menu only offers Firefox Home or a blank page, so it takes my free New Tab Launcher extension. Once it's added, every new tab opens your homepage.

Free for Firefox
Add to Firefox

When Firefox says Your new tab has changed, click Keep Changes.

If Firefox asks about private windows or pinning it to the toolbar, either answer is fine.

You're all set

Your homepage is ready whenever you open Firefox.
