Frequently Asked Questions — Our Broadband Blog & Articles

About our broadband blog, broadband guides, research process, update policy & independence

Our broadband blog publishes practical, UK-focused content designed to help you cut costs and improve performance. Expect deep broadband guides and shorter articles on saving money without switching provider, weighing cheap broadband against premium plans, finding the best time of year to lock in deals, and spotting hidden charges before you sign. We also write plain-English pieces on router setup, Wi-Fi optimisation, speed tests, latency fixes, and topics like how the internet evolved. Everything is written for real households—renters, families, students and home workers—so you can act on it the same day.

Updates happen continuously and whenever the market moves. We refresh posts after provider price changes, contract term updates, new social tariffs, router or firmware releases, network expansions, or regulatory changes. Each article includes clear published and updated dates so you know the freshness at a glance. Beyond factual updates, we regularly improve headings, summaries and FAQs to better match what readers search for, and we review accessibility and readability to keep guides fast, clear and easy to use on mobile and desktop.

Yes. We follow an independence policy that keeps editorial judgement separate from any commercial relationships. Recommendations are built on consistent criteria: pricing value over the full contract, speed and reliability, contract fairness, hardware quality, customer support trends, and overall usability. If we reference a deal, we explain the context and the fine print, including mid-contract price rises and out-of-contract rates. Our goal is to help you make confident, informed choices—not to push a particular provider.

We write for people first. Articles are structured around real tasks—saving money, understanding plan trade-offs, and fixing common broadband issues—so you can take action quickly. Our broadband guides use plain English, step-by-step instructions tested on typical UK home setups, and transparent pricing breakdowns that include potential hidden fees and mid-contract price rises. We design for fast loading and accessibility, making content easy to find, read and apply on any device. The result: clearer decisions, fewer surprises, and better value from your broadband.
