This article is about the personal website of Homestar Runner. For the website of the Homestar Runner body of work, see homestarrunner.com.
Homestar Runner's Website is an Easter egg in the email 2 years. It is a poorly designed website made for Nedscape 1.0 or lower. It is referenced later in Flash is Dead!, where it is used as Homestar Runner's dating profile, which is made for Ned's Cape. It also appears as part of the visuals in Back to a Website where the tiled Homestars sing along.

Fun Facts
Trivia
- The background appears to be a heavily Photoshopped picture of Homestar. It appears that "Plastic Wrap" and "Lens Flare" filters were used, among others.
- It appears to be parodying poor quality images commonly found on websites of the 90s-00s.
- Despite the "broken code" appearing on the page, the HTML on the page is actually well-formed, and even includes some JavaScript code to include Google Analytics.
- "This page is best viewed using" refers to websites in the '90s-'00s, which would list the recommended browser and update required to load the site.
Inside References
- Homestar refers to his page as a "wedsite".
- "Helscome" is an unusual greeting, and is also a portmanteau of "hello" and "welcome".
Real-World References
- Homestar's Website works best on "Nedscape 1.0" or lower. "Nedscape" is an obvious misspelling of Netscape, an Internet browser.
- Ironically, the page will not load with Netscape 1.0, and there is no publicly released lower version.
