Internet Explorer

In Internet Explorer all you need to do is to click on the Add Search to Internet Explorer link, select Make Default (if you wish to have The Credit Speaker Search as the default) and click OK and The Credit Speaker Search becomes your default search engine or additional search engine. Now you can enter searches and keywords direct into the address field in Internet Explorer.

Google Chrome

In Google Chrome the Add Search to Chrome link adds the search engine as an option, but you will need to go into the settings and make the search engine the default search engine.

 Go into Settings, Manage search engines and select The Credit Speaker Search as the default. Hover your mouse over the The Credit Speaker Search entry and click the Make default button.

 Firefox

 For Firefox select  Add Search to Firefox and The Credit Speaker Search becomes the default search using the search field in Firefox. If you want to add The Credit Speaker Search to the address area as well, you'll need to do this manually.

In the address area enter about:config
Click I'll be careful, I promise
In Search type keyword.URL
Double click on keyword.URL
Enter https://www.advancedsearch.com.au/TheCreditSpeaker/go.php?q=
Click OK
Close the tab

Now you can enter your search criteria or keyword into the address area of Firefox.

Other browsers

Some browsers such as tablets and mobile phones don't have the ability to change the search engine. For some devices you can make The Credit Speakker Search your home page, but if you can't do that, then setting up a button on your home screen to the page is often the easiest approach. It is also quick because all you need to do is press the home button and then select the icon and you'll go direct to the The Credit Speaker Search page. Ideally however, it would be good to simply have the feature as part of the browser as you can on Internet Explorer, Google Chrome and Firefox.

For browsers where you can manually enter the search engine (such as the older version of Opera) you use the address as shown for Firefox and then often you'll need to enter something list %s after the equal sign.

Set The Credit Speaker Search as your home page

It is often a good idea to set your home page to a page of your choice. Over time many people have their browser's home page and search engine hijacked. By setting your search engine and home page to known sites you are now in control and not the business which hijacked your browser. This also provides a good signal to let you know if your browser gets hijacked. If at any point your home page and search engine changes you know you've had your browser hijacked.
