What To Consider When Choosing A Web Browser
Most important things are speed, safety and the easy use.
Speed. A good web browser should load web pages quickly
and should be able to work seamlessly when there are multiple tabs in
the same time, because these days we use often different services such
as e-mail, social networks, entertainment sites in the same time and we
like to receive real time updates about new things.
Safety. Besides speed, a good browser should focus and
offer safety because there are many threats on Internet, fake pages
(phishing) to steal personal information such as credit card numbers,
pop-ups which may install viruses, malware (viruses) hidden in images or
downloadable file and so on. Top browsers are communicating with online
databases where sites or files suspected to contain malware are
reported and recorded and you will be notified before visiting a site
like this.
Easy use. Most of us are spending each day using the
internet at least few minutes per day to check email, Facebook account
etc. Since we are using the web browser so often, is important to have a
clean and well organized interface of the browsers and should not be
stuffed with extra menus, links and buttons. Also, it should interact
well with multimedia files: videos, music and online games.

some web pages contain multimedia content such as video or online
games, the browser will need more RAM memory of your computer. If you
keep multiple tabs open and you use in the same other applications, then
the memory usage is important. If your computer have at least 4GB RAM
memory, then will not be a problem.
