  • QUOTE:A home page or homepage has various related meanings to do with web sites:
    • It most often refers to the initial or main web page of a web site, sometimes called the front page (by analogy with newspapers).
    • The web page or local file that automatically loads when a web browser starts or when the browser's "home" button is pressed; this is also called a start page. The user can specify the URL of the page to be loaded, or alternatively choose e.g. to re-load the most recent web page browsed.
    • A personal web page, for example at a web hosting service or a university web site, that typically is stored in the home directory of the user.
    • In the 1990s the term was also used to refer to a whole web site, particularly a personal web site (perhaps because simple web sites often consisted of just one web page).
