How to go back and forth from one web site to another with arrow keys using Safari

The other day, I was using Safari and accidentally came across a useful command for those who cannot use a Mouse very well to use the back and forward buttons to go from one web site to another that's in History in Safari.

Mojave Tip: Keep Track of Web Sites Better with Tab icons using Safari

If you're like me, you have multiple tabs open at one time. Wouldn't it be nice if you can glance at one and know what web site is in them? Well, now you can by looking at the site's icon inside a tab.

How to enable this feature:

Open Safari (if it isn't already).
Click "Safari" and System Preferences.
Click the Tabs icon.

Reload the web site (Command R).
Now the web site's icon will appear inside the tab.
That's it.

This is a very handy option that should be on by default.
