The index page is what greets you when you visit homestarrunner.com, giving you links to watch the Intro or go to one of the main pages. Before the index page was created (circa June 10, 2003), one was directed straight to one of the introduction toons.
This page is traditionally replaced by an April Fools' gag on the first of April. In 2003, viewers of this page were taken to a King of Town Intro and King of Town Main Page. In 2004, it was replaced by the Under Construction page. In 2005, this page was replaced by HomestarRunner.com PAY PLUS!, which greeted viewers by informing them that Homestar Runner had become a subscription site. In 2009, it was replaced with April Fool 09, which took the Intro and retroactively changed it into a Strong Bad email. In 2010, it was replaced with Xeriouxly Forxe. In 2014, it was replaced with April Fools' 2014, which remained in its place for roughly three months.
On January 13, 2008, the regular intro page was replaced with a picture of Trogdor in the shape of a 5 to celebrate Trogdor's fifth birthday. It was later changed back on January 21, 2008.
Clicking "come on in" will only take you to one of the older Main Pages (1 through 20). However, on the Trogdor index page, the other main pages were added.
Between January 21 and March 31, 2010, the index page featured a "shop our store" link. The link was removed and the original index page was restored on April 2, 2010.
An Old-Timey version of the Index Page featuring The Homestar Runner was made in sbemail206.
Page Title: Everybody! Everybody!
Trogdor Page Title: Troggie Turns Five!
April Fools' 2014 Page Title: Everybody! Everybody?
