Home page

The home page of a website is the document that a web server sends to another computer's web browser application when it has been contacted without a request for specific information.  That is, when one enters only a domain name in the Address box without specifying a directory or a file, the home page is usually the first part of the website one would be taken to.  The Home Page is also called the Main Page.  

A properly written home page will tell a user about the information available on the website, and how to view different parts of the website.

Home Page was a popular computer application used for composing web pages.

 In Linux servers 
In Linux-based servers, the homepage is default.html, default.php, etc. This is a problem for website administrators to install website applications like MediaWiki. Mainly because most website applications are created with the homepage as index.php for PHP applications.

 In Windows servers 
Similarly, in Windows-based servers, the homepage is default.html, default.php, etc.
