Standards

Editorial Policy

Sourcing, checking, bylines, dates and commercial links, set out so you can judge what you read on Newwebs Techs.

The standard we hold ourselves to

Before you trust a word elsewhere on newwebstechs1.site, it is fair to know how those words get made. That is the entire purpose of this page.

Picking subjects

A subject earns a page when somebody has asked about it twice, or when we went looking for the answer ourselves and came back empty handed.

Bylines

Bylines are real people with real archives attached. If you disagree with a piece, you can see what else the same person has written and judge accordingly.

Ravi Menon, Web fundamentals and SEO writer. Ravi explains how the web works and how sites get found, aimed at people building their first website.

Astrid Holm, Web design and maintenance writer. Astrid writes about designing and looking after websites, focused on clarity, usability, and sensible upkeep.

Felix Nkemelu, Performance and hosting writer. Felix covers website speed and hosting for beginners, turning technical topics into practical decisions.

We earn from some outbound links. That pays for hosting and research time, and it does not decide the verdict of any page.

If a partner asks us to remove a criticism, the answer is no, and the request itself may end up mentioned in a future article.

What the date means

The date on an article is the date it was published. When a change alters the advice, we update the modified date and say what changed. Cosmetic edits do not reset the date, because pretending a page is fresher than it is helps nobody.

The drafting process

  1. The writer collects what they already know and marks the parts they cannot support.
  2. Those parts are checked against a primary source, an operator document, or direct experience.
  3. What survives step two goes into the draft. What does not is cut.
  4. A second person reads the draft for claims that sound firmer than the evidence behind them.

Corrections

Corrections go to [email protected]. Include the address and the sentence. Anything factual is fixed without argument. Anything that changes what the article recommends gets a dated note underneath, so the change is visible.
