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:

  • My Wait for a Windows Version of Popular iPad App GoodNotes Was Worth It
  • 5 Things That Would Make Windows Good Again
  • Your Smartphone Is Coming to Windows 11's Start Menu
  • How to Rip an Audio CD on Windows

  • You will pitch, claim, and be assigned topics
  • Stay up to date on the latest tech news, products and updates
  • Input work into our in-house system and format images according to our guidelines

In your Cover Letter, please address the following questions:

  • Why do you want to write for How-To Geek?

Applicants must be highly motivated and possess the following requirements

  • Relevant experience in writing and editing in the English language
