What readers can expect
Our publishing principles
01
Be understandable
We write for people, not algorithms alone.
02
Be practical
Advice should help with action, not just theory.
03
Be transparent
Disclosure and policy pages should clearly explain how the site operates.
04
Keep improving
Technology changes, and useful content must evolve with it.
Transparency
Editorial and affiliate disclosure
Compsmag publicly states that it may use affiliate links from Amazon and other partners, and that those links help support the website while content remains free for readers. Its disclaimer also states that external partners do not control editorial messaging, product ratings, or whether coverage is positive.
We believe transparency is part of reader respect. A modern technology publication should be clear not only about what it covers, but also about how it operates.
