Have you ever found a website you wanted to view later, only to realize that you didn't remember the web address when the time came? Bookmarks are a great way to save and organize specific websites so you can revisit them again and again.

In this lesson, we'll talk about how to add bookmarks to Chrome, how to manage and organize your bookmarks and folders, and how to import bookmarks from another browser.

To add a bookmark:

You can save any page you're currently viewing as a bookmark.

  1. Click the Star in the Omnibox to save the current page as a bookmark. Alternatively, you can press Ctrl+D on your keyboard.

To Use the Bookmark bar:

By default, any page you bookmark in Chrome will be saved to the Bookmarks bar, which will appear every time you open the New Tab page.

  1. Click the New Tab button or press Ctrl+T on your keyboard.

If you prefer, the Bookmarks bar can appear below the Omnibox at all times. Just click the Chrome Menu, hover the mouse over Bookmarks, then select Show Bookmarks bar.
