All web browsers let you change the homepage to be whatever you want it to be. What this does is forces the browser to open a specific website each time you open the browser.
Setting the homepage to something particular is great if you find yourself always opening the same page anyway after you launch the web browser. For example, if you like to check the news every day when you get on your computer, set the homepage to be the news site so that it's the first thing you see each time you open the browser.
Or, maybe you want to have your homepage be your favorite search engine, your email client, a social media website, a free online games website, etc. No matter what you set it to, the homepage can be changed in all major browsers like Chrome, Firefox, Opera, Internet Explorer, Safari, etc., but the steps are different for all of them.
