On browsers, Chrome, Firefox, Safari. Using the Command key with the left or right bracket will get you to moe forward or backward one web page at a time. The bracket keys are just to the right of the letter 'P'. Always use the lower case.

On browsers that are playing videos, some let you use Command-Arrow Left or right to move 10 secs in either direction.

In System Prefs, the Keyboard section should give you a good list to default keystrokes for moving around, forward backward, up or down...although I've never figured out how to 'up' a web page.
