The Craving Explorer (https://v2.crav-ing.com/) is a partner of Start.me. Make sure you download the Chromium-based version of the Craving Explorer - version 2. You don't have to install Start.me separately. Everything is already there. There are still some personalization options you could choose to implement.
Set Start.me as your homepage
When you install the Craving Explorer, you don't have to set Start.me as your homepage: it will open Start.me automatically.
Set Start.me as your new tab page
The same goes for your New Tab page: it will open automatically to Start.me.
Install Start.me Chrome Extension
The Start.me Chrome extension makes adding bookmarks and RSS feeds to Start.me much easier.
Click to install it now:
With this extension, you can easily import your Chrome bookmarks, manage your New tab page and more. Just right-click and select 'Options.'
You can also use it to bookmark any site you're visiting. One regular click will do the trick.

You can import the bookmarks you'd like to transfer from other browsers. You'll only have to do this once. When you've stored them on your Start.me page, you can access them from any browser.
Instructions

Click the Add content button.
In the Add content pane, locate the button 'Import bookmarks.'
Click the Import bookmarks button and browse to the HTML file with your bookmarks.
