How-To Geek is an online technology publication with tens of millions of readers each month. Our readers love How-To Geek because of its unique voice. We’re not a website for geeks—we are the geeks.

Our target audience are everyday consumers who are interested in tech; we write for the lay-people, not industry insiders. For example, our readers are the "Should You Upgrade to a Wi-Fi 7 Router?" crowd. Not the "Wi-Fi 7 Routers Will Usher In the IoT Market Penetration Shift" crowd.

    - Why do you want to write for How-To Geek?
    - What makes you the right fit for this role? (You can touch upon previous experience and your passion for technology)

     

We will get back to you as soon as possible if we think you'd make a solid addition to the team.
