Mozilla Firefox is a web browser managed by the Mozilla Corporation. About 15 percent of people who surf the Web use Mozilla Firefox, making it the second in popularity only to Internet Explorer. Since so many people use Firefox, it makes sense that a lot of people want to bookmark web pages. It's easy to bookmark pages in Mozilla Firefox if you follow a few simple steps.

Difficulty: Easy
Instructions
  1. Step 1

    Take a look at the very top of the toolbar on your Mozilla Firefox window. Count five tabs from the left to reach the Bookmarks tab. Click your cursor on this tab to allow the drop-down menu to open.

  2. Step 2

    Move your cursor down the drop-down menu until you highlight the words "Bookmark This Page."

  3. Step 3

    Click "Bookmark This Page" to open the "Add Bookmark" box. It will allow you to save the bookmark in a specific folder.

  4. Step 4

    Know that the first line in the box is the name of the URL. If you wish to change the name to something shorter, highlight the name and type the new name. The second line in the box is where you will select the folder to save your bookmark in.

  5. Step 5

    Select the folder you would like to save your bookmark in by choosing the correct one from the drop-down menu. Whatever folder you choose will now show up in the "Create In" line. Click OK. The URL is now saved in your bookmarks.

  6. Step 6

    Click on Bookmark Toolbar if you'd like to save the URL in the bookmark toolbar. The toolbar will show up three lines down from the top of your window, under the URL address box. It allows you easier access to a select number of bookmarks.

  7. Step 7

    Select the URL from the site address bar. Click and drag it to the Bookmarks Toolbar for a faster way to add sites to the Toolbar.
