How To Speed Up Your Browser (Quick Tips)





Some people may have problems going to their internet connection is slow. There also are located at locations that do not support fast internet. And also there are some who have an older computer that works very slowly when Internet browsing. To speed up internet connection/download through the internet I have explained in the article How to speed up downloading files on the Internet. This time I ‘ll share a few tips to speed up the performance of browser you use.


To be able to surf through the internet, you must use your favorite browser, whatever you want to use which. But for now, my favorite browser is Firefox, which until now I still use Firefox because I think Firefox more faster than other browsers.


If we had long used the browser, the browser sometimes will run more slowly than before. Whether it ‘s at startup, when loading the Internet, while downloading, etc. This is because there are some things that make the browser work slower. Below are a few tips to speed up the browser working.


1. Set Home Page Browser to Blank Page


Some people who have long used the browser and have been familiar with their browser will set the Main page ( at startup ) on their favorite page, so when they open the browser will directly lead to the favorite page. This is one that can slow browser performance, especially at startup. We recommend that you set the Main Page to Blank Page. For Firefox 4 users, by default when the browser opened, this will displays Mozilla Firefox Start Page. It’s very light once at startup, only display Google Search Page.


2. Delete Temporary Internet Files


Every time you visit a website, your browser saves images and other info and stores it in the cache. In theory, this is great because it speeds up opening the website the next time you visit it. Unfortunately, there is a downside to it as well – the more files get stored in the cache, the more bloated it becomes. As a result, your browser needs more time to open and your hard drive becomes cluttered. Moreover, deleting temporary Internet files will help you protect your privacy.


To clear the cache in Internet Explorer, go to Tools >> Delete Browsing History. Click Delete All, then clickClose. You’re done. Firefox users need to go to Tools >> Clear Private Data. Don’t forget to check the checkboxes for the things you want cleaned up, like Cache, Cookies, Search History, etc. Then click Clear Private Data Now.


3. Do not Installing Add -On or Tool Bar Too Much


For Firefox users are provided a lot of Add- On to beautify the appearance of the browser. It is fact that even slow down the browser, especially at startup, because the browser will load the Add – On at startup. Also, usually some applications/software installed, during the installation process to include the tool bar, you should not install this tool bar, or unchecked warnings that include the installation of the tool bar. Let the browser’s tool bar by default. I prefer a simple browser view than beautiful appearance.


4. Use pipelining


Firefox users are in luck, because their browser has a way to boost page loading time. Pipelining lets Firefox send multiple request to a single socket without having to wait for the corresponding responses, which makes all the difference.
To enable pipelining, do the following:


1. Open Firefox and type about:config into the address bar and hit Enter
2. Find network.http.pipelining, set it to True to enable pipelining
3. Check that network.http.proxy.pipelining is set to True
4. Double-click network.http.pipelining.maxrequests and set the number of requests to 8


There are many other ways to boost your Web browser’s speed and productivity. But these quick tips really do make a difference. For Opera users, you can use Opera Turbo feature to speed up internet browsing. And Now, enjoy faster browsing!
