You can use popular browsers to create shortcuts to websites on common computers. These shortcuts will help you open specific web pages quickly.
Steps
Use Internet Explorer or Firefox
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/7/73/Put-a-Shortcut-to-a-Website-on-Your-Desktop-Step-1-Version-2. jpg/v4-728px-Put-a-Shortcut-to-a-Website-on-Your-Desktop-Step-1-Version-2.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/ images/thumb/7/73/Put-a-Shortcut-to-a-Website-on-Your-Desktop-Step-1-Version-2.jpg/v4-728px-Put-a-Shortcut-to-a- Website-on-Your-Desktop-Step-1-Version-2.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460,”smallHeight”:346,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:547,”licensing”:”<div class=”mw-parser-output”></div>”}
Open your web browser. You can apply this method on both Internet Explorer and Firefox.
- If you use Microsoft Edge, you need to open Internet Explorer to proceed, because the Edge browser does not support this feature.
- Regardless of your default browser, when you double-click the shortcut, the web page will usually open with the browser you used to create the shortcut.
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/0/05/Put-a-Shortcut-to-a-Website-on-Your-Desktop-Step-2-Version-2. jpg/v4-728px-Put-a-Shortcut-to-a-Website-on-Your-Desktop-Step-2-Version-2.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/ images/thumb/0/05/Put-a-Shortcut-to-a-Website-on-Your-Desktop-Step-2-Version-2.jpg/v4-728px-Put-a-Shortcut-to-a- Website-on-Your-Desktop-Step-2-Version-2.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460,”smallHeight”:345,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:546,”licensing”:”<div class=”mw-parser-output”></div>”}
Go to the website for which you want to create a shortcut. Open the exact page where you want to create the shortcut. You can create a shortcut to any website, but you still need to log in if the website always requires it.
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/b/b8/Put-a-Shortcut-to-a-Website-on-Your-Desktop-Step-3-Version-2. jpg/v4-728px-Put-a-Shortcut-to-a-Website-on-Your-Desktop-Step-3-Version-2.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/ images/thumb/b/b8/Put-a-Shortcut-to-a-Website-on-Your-Desktop-Step-3-Version-2.jpg/v4-728px-Put-a-Shortcut-to-a- Website-on-Your-Desktop-Step-3-Version-2.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460,”smallHeight”:345,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:546,”licensing”:”<div class=”mw-parser-output”></div>”}
Make sure you don’t open the browser in full screen mode. You need to see the desktop for easier operation.
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/2/2c/Put-a-Shortcut-to-a-Website-on-Your-Desktop-Step-4-Version-2. jpg/v4-728px-Put-a-Shortcut-to-a-Website-on-Your-Desktop-Step-4-Version-2.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/ images/thumb/2/2c/Put-a-Shortcut-to-a-Website-on-Your-Desktop-Step-4-Version-2.jpg/v4-728px-Put-a-Shortcut-to-a- Website-on-Your-Desktop-Step-4-Version-2.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460,”smallHeight”:345,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:546,”licensing”:”<div class=”mw-parser-output”></div>”}
Click the site icon in the address bar and drag the mouse. You’ll see a slightly fuzzy website icon move with the mouse pointer.
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/7/7c/Put-a-Shortcut-to-a-Website-on-Your-Desktop-Step-5-Version-2. jpg/v4-728px-Put-a-Shortcut-to-a-Website-on-Your-Desktop-Step-5-Version-2.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/ images/thumb/7/7c/Put-a-Shortcut-to-a-Website-on-Your-Desktop-Step-5-Version-2.jpg/v4-728px-Put-a-Shortcut-to-a- Website-on-Your-Desktop-Step-5-Version-2.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460,”smallHeight”:346,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:547,”licensing”:”<div class=”mw-parser-output”></div>”}
Drop the icon on the desktop. Shortcut with the same name as the website title will appear on the screen. Shortcuts can carry the website’s icon (if any).
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/8/83/Put-a-Shortcut-to-a-Website-on-Your-Desktop-Step-6-Version-2. jpg/v4-728px-Put-a-Shortcut-to-a-Website-on-Your-Desktop-Step-6-Version-2.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/ images/thumb/8/83/Put-a-Shortcut-to-a-Website-on-Your-Desktop-Step-6-Version-2.jpg/v4-728px-Put-a-Shortcut-to-a- Website-on-Your-Desktop-Step-6-Version-2.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460,”smallHeight”:345,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:546,”licensing”:”<div class=”mw-parser-output”></div>”}
Double-click the shortcut. If you use Internet Explorer to create a shortcut, this web page will always open in Internet Explorer. But if you create with Firefox, the website will open in the default browser.
Using Chrome (Windows)
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/6/6c/Put-a-Shortcut-to-a-Website-on-Your-Desktop-Step-7-Version-2. jpg/v4-728px-Put-a-Shortcut-to-a-Website-on-Your-Desktop-Step-7-Version-2.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/ images/thumb/6/6c/Put-a-Shortcut-to-a-Website-on-Your-Desktop-Step-7-Version-2.jpg/v4-728px-Put-a-Shortcut-to-a- Website-on-Your-Desktop-Step-7-Version-2.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460,”smallHeight”:346,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:547,”licensing”:”<div class=”mw-parser-output”></div>”}
Open the website with the Chrome browser on a Windows operating system computer. On Chrome browser, you can use custom icons of web pages (favicon: small image displayed before the title of the website, in the address bar of the browser). This feature is currently not available on Mac computers.
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/8/83/Put-a-Shortcut-to-a-Website-on-Your-Desktop-Step-8-Version-2. jpg/v4-728px-Put-a-Shortcut-to-a-Website-on-Your-Desktop-Step-8-Version-2.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/ images/thumb/8/83/Put-a-Shortcut-to-a-Website-on-Your-Desktop-Step-8-Version-2.jpg/v4-728px-Put-a-Shortcut-to-a- Website-on-Your-Desktop-Step-8-Version-2.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460,”smallHeight”:345,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:546,”licensing”:”<div class=”mw-parser-output”></div>”}
Click the shaped options button (⋮) in the upper-right corner of the Chrome window.
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/5/54/Put-a-Shortcut-to-a-Website-on-Your-Desktop-Step-9-Version-2. jpg/v4-728px-Put-a-Shortcut-to-a-Website-on-Your-Desktop-Step-9-Version-2.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/ images/thumb/5/54/Put-a-Shortcut-to-a-Website-on-Your-Desktop-Step-9-Version-2.jpg/v4-728px-Put-a-Shortcut-to-a- Website-on-Your-Desktop-Step-9-Version-2.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460,”smallHeight”:345,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:546,”licensing”:”<div class=”mw-parser-output”></div>”}
Choose “More tops” → “Add to desktop”. A new window will appear.
- If you don’t see this option, the version you’re using may be out of date. Choose “Help” → “About Google Chrome” in the menu and install the latest available update.
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/6/66/Put-a-Shortcut-to-a-Website-on-Your-Desktop-Step-10-Version-2. jpg/v4-728px-Put-a-Shortcut-to-a-Website-on-Your-Desktop-Step-10-Version-2.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/ images/thumb/6/66/Put-a-Shortcut-to-a-Website-on-Your-Desktop-Step-10-Version-2.jpg/v4-728px-Put-a-Shortcut-to-a- Website-on-Your-Desktop-Step-10-Version-2.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460,”smallHeight”:345,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:546,”licensing”:”<div class=”mw-parser-output”></div>”}
Name the shortcut. By default, the shortcut will have the same name as the website title. However, you can change it as you like.
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/9/9e/Put-a-Shortcut-to-a-Website-on-Your-Desktop-Step-11-Version-2. jpg/v4-728px-Put-a-Shortcut-to-a-Website-on-Your-Desktop-Step-11-Version-2.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/ images/thumb/9/9e/Put-a-Shortcut-to-a-Website-on-Your-Desktop-Step-11-Version-2.jpg/v4-728px-Put-a-Shortcut-to-a- Website-on-Your-Desktop-Step-11-Version-2.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460,”smallHeight”:345,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:546,”licensing”:”<div class=”mw-parser-output”></div>”}
Choose to open in a window or not. If you check the “Open as window” box, the shortcut will always open in its own window, almost like an application. This is handy for shortcuts to services like Gmail or the WhatsApp messaging utility.
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/3/3b/Put-a-Shortcut-to-a-Website-on-Your-Desktop-Step-12-Version-2. jpg/v4-728px-Put-a-Shortcut-to-a-Website-on-Your-Desktop-Step-12-Version-2.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/ images/thumb/3/3b/Put-a-Shortcut-to-a-Website-on-Your-Desktop-Step-12-Version-2.jpg/v4-728px-Put-a-Shortcut-to-a- Website-on-Your-Desktop-Step-12-Version-2.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460,”smallHeight”:345,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:546,”licensing”:”<div class=”mw-parser-output”></div>”}
Click “Add” to add the shortcut to the desktop. A new icon (similar to the website’s favicon) will appear on the desktop.
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/c/c5/Put-a-Shortcut-to-a-Website-on-Your-Desktop-Step-13-Version-2. jpg/v4-728px-Put-a-Shortcut-to-a-Website-on-Your-Desktop-Step-13-Version-2.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/ images/thumb/c/c5/Put-a-Shortcut-to-a-Website-on-Your-Desktop-Step-13-Version-2.jpg/v4-728px-Put-a-Shortcut-to-a- Website-on-Your-Desktop-Step-13-Version-2.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460,”smallHeight”:346,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:547,”licensing”:”<div class=”mw-parser-output”></div>”}
Double-click the shortcut to open it. If you don’t select the “Open as window” feature, the shortcut will open in a regular Chrome browser window. If you select “Open as window,” the page will be opened in a separate window rather than the usual Chrome interface.

Open any web browser. You can create a shortcut to a website using any web browser like Safari, Chrome, and Firefox.
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/f/f7/Put-a-Shortcut-to-a-Website-on-Your-Desktop-Step-15.jpg/v4- 728px-Put-a-Shortcut-to-a-Website-on-Your-Desktop-Step-15.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/f/f7/ Put-a-Shortcut-to-a-Website-on-Your-Desktop-Step-15.jpg/v4-728px-Put-a-Shortcut-to-a-Website-on-Your-Desktop-Step-15. jpg”,”smallWidth”:460,”smallHeight”:345,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:546,”licensing”:”<div class=”mw-parser-output”></div>”}
Go to the website for which you want to create the shortcut. You can create shortcuts to any part of your website, but when using shortcuts, pages that require login still need to be logged in.
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/1/1b/Put-a-Shortcut-to-a-Website-on-Your-Desktop-Step-16.jpg/v4- 728px-Put-a-Shortcut-to-a-Website-on-Your-Desktop-Step-16.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/1/1b/ Put-a-Shortcut-to-a-Website-on-Your-Desktop-Step-16.jpg/v4-728px-Put-a-Shortcut-to-a-Website-on-Your-Desktop-Step-16. jpg”,”smallWidth”:460,”smallHeight”:345,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:546,”licensing”:”<div class=”mw-parser-output”></div>”}

Click the icon and drag the mouse. You will see the icon and the page address move with the mouse pointer. You need to make sure you click and drag your mouse over the icon and not just the address line.
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/d/dc/Put-a-Shortcut-to-a-Website-on-Your-Desktop-Step-18.jpg/v4- 728px-Put-a-Shortcut-to-a-Website-on-Your-Desktop-Step-18.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/d/dc/ Put-a-Shortcut-to-a-Website-on-Your-Desktop-Step-18.jpg/v4-728px-Put-a-Shortcut-to-a-Website-on-Your-Desktop-Step-18. jpg”,”smallWidth”:460,”smallHeight”:345,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:546,”licensing”:”<div class=”mw-parser-output”></div>”}

Open Safari browser. You need to use Safari to add many small sections of the website to the Dashboard (screen with small widgets), which allows you to easily keep tabs containing important content.
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/8/8d/Put-a-Shortcut-to-a-Website-on-Your-Desktop-Step-21.jpg/v4- 728px-Put-a-Shortcut-to-a-Website-on-Your-Desktop-Step-21.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/8/8d/ Put-a-Shortcut-to-a-Website-on-Your-Desktop-Step-21.jpg/v4-728px-Put-a-Shortcut-to-a-Website-on-Your-Desktop-Step-21. jpg”,”smallWidth”:460,”smallHeight”:345,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:546,”licensing”:”<div class=”mw-parser-output”></div>”}
Navigate to the website you want to add to the Dashboard. You will be able to add from a section to the entire site, but only in a static view (i.e. no scrolling up/down).

Click the “File” menu and select “Open in Dashboard”. The web page will dim, and the mouse pointer will turn into a frame for you to limit the scope to save on the page.
