If you have a bunch of websites that you visit every day, it would be a smart thing to set up bookmark keywords for them. Like, I’ve put the letter ‘g’ as the keyword for Guiding Tech. That means I just type g in the address bar of Firefox or Chrome and press enter to open the Guiding Tech homepage.
In this article, we will see how we can achieve this in Firefox and Chrome so that we can be more productive in our daily web browsing.
Set keywords for bookmarks in Firefox
See how we can set up keywords for your favorite websites in Firefox.
Step 1. First, you need to bookmark that website. This can be done by clicking the star icon at the far right of the address bar while you are on that page.
Step 2: Now press Ctrl+Shift+B to open the bookmarks library. There, search for the site you just bookmarked. When you find it in the results, click on it and check the description fields that appear at the bottom of that window.
You’ll find a small downward arrow that says More. Click it.
Step 3. You should now see a field that says Keywords. This is where you’ll put letters or words that you can use to quickly open that web page in Firefox.
Don’t forget to hit the little Save button before you exit that window.
That’s how you can set up keywords for your favorite websites in Firefox. Now let’s switch to Chrome.
Set up keywords for bookmarks in Chrome
In Chrome, the process is a bit complicated as there is no easy way to complete it. But there is a simple workaround. Let’s see what that is.
Step 1. Right click on the Chrome address bar and click Edit search engine.
Step 2. The Edit Search Engine window will open. Now click Add on the right.
Step 3. Here, add the name of the website, the corresponding keyword you want to use and its URL.
Click OK and you’re done! Now you can type that keyword and press enter to open that web page in Chrome.
Hopefully both the tips mentioned above will help increase your browsing productivity.
