About Us

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. 

 

We’re the people you turn to when your computer isn’t working right, you need to do something technical, or you want to understand the latest gadgets—and which are the best ones to buy. We explain it all in simple, approachable terms. How-To Geek is for everyone.

 

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.

 

Our Windows writers have knowledge on Windows devices, apps, software, and updates. They have excellent English language writing skills as well as the ability to break down complex topics.

 

Please have a look at the below articles to get an idea of the kind of content we often write:

 

Responsibilities

  • Pitch ideas and work with editors to refine them. While you also have the ability to claim ideas created by editors, we want our authors to primarily pitch from their own interests and expertise.
  • Stay up-to-date on the latest tech news, products. and updates.
  • Work within a CMS: adhere to style guidelines, finding and formatting images, adding links, etc.
 

Application Requirements:

  • CV

      • 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)
  • Screening Questions
  • Links to previously published work


Applicants must be highly motivated and possess the following requirements

  • Relevant experience in writing and editing in the English language
  • Expert knowledge of Windows
  • Knowledge of other tech (a plus)
  • Must have Windows 10/11 (with the expectation of updating to the latest version ASAP after it's made available)
 

We provide our contributors with an engaging community of like-minded tech enthusiasts. We also offer an output bonus if you surpass our monthly quota!

 

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