Find favorite sites

You can save time by bookmarking websites you visit often. Just click the star icon at the right end of the search bar to bookmark a website. Accessing your favorite sites can be done in three different ways. Here's how you can do it:

Method 1 - Using Bookmark Manager

The first method is the simplest and is done using the bookmark manager.

Launch Google Chrome.
Click on the three horizontal lines below the "x" icon in the upper right corner. You will see a submenu appear. Find where it says "Bookmarks" and select "Manage Bookmarks".
PC users can access the bookmark manager by pressing Ctrl + Shift + O or you can copy "chrome: // bookmarks /" into the search bar and load your bookmarks directly. Mac users can use the shortcut Cmd + Option + B.
The list of bookmarked websites will be displayed. You can organize your bookmarks into folders and open them from here by double clicking on them. Use the search bar at the top of the page to find what you are looking for.

Method 2 - Using the Bookmarks Bar

The bookmarks bar allows you to load the websites you have saved with just one click. The bar is located below the search bar and all you have to do to access your favorite website is to click on it. Here's how you can set up the bookmarks bar:

Launch Google Chrome.
Click on the three vertical dots in the upper right corner and place the pointer on “Bookmarks”.
A submenu will appear. Select "Show Favorites Bar" to make it appear below the search bar.
Click on the bookmark you want to open and the site will load immediately. You can also access the bookmarks bar by pressing Ctrl + Shift + B. If you want to browse your bookmarks by taking a look at the website icons, this is the method for you.

Method 3 - Using the Google Bookmarks page

You can use Google bookmarks if you want to make your bookmarks available on all the devices you are using. By adding them to Google bookmarks, you can simply log in using your Google account from any device and find the sites in your bookmarks. Here's how you can set it up:

Open Google Chrome.
Copy “https://www.google.com/bookmarks/” into the search bar to access Google Bookmarks.
Log in using your Google credentials.
Your bookmarks will be displayed in a list. You can access them from any device or browser as they are stored on your Google account, rather than on your device.
Click on a bookmark to open the website. You can find specific sites in your bookmarks using the search bar above and you can also choose if you want to sort them by title, label or date added.

How to add Google bookmarks

Bookmarking your favorite websites on Google is a little more complicated than adding them to your browser. You will need to manually add each website from the Google bookmarks tab. Here's what you need to do to create Google bookmarks:

Open Google and go to the bookmarks page.
Enter your Google credentials and load the page.
Select "Add Bookmark".
Create a custom bookmark. Enter the name of the bookmark, copy the URL into the box, label the bookmark for more information on what it is, and add notes if necessary.
Click "Add Bookmark" to add the website to your Google bookmarks.
You can now access your favorite sites using any device or browser.
Repeat the process for each website you want to bookmark on Google.

How to manage bookmarks

Now you know where to find your bookmarks and how to add new ones. In this section, we'll give you some tips for managing your Chrome bookmarks.

With Chrome, you can add, delete, edit and even rearrange your bookmarks. The process for each is quite simple.

Later, you can edit the existing bookmarks from the bookmarks page. Simply open the page in Chrome and click on the three dots next to the bookmark you want to change. Then, click "Edit".

Update the URL or bookmark name and click "Save".
