What We’re All About

This Site Is A Questions & Answers Site, In Blog Format!

We answer the best questions users send in on a variety of topics, including search engines, the internet, marketing, blogs, online shopping, business, social media, and everything in between. If a question lies outside our field of expertise, we hire outside experts to answer it.

Our aim is to let site topics evolve organically based on our readers questions and interests. We also provide regular “How To” articles on popular question topics.

We encourage visitors to add helpful comments to expand our knowledge base, for everyone’s benefit.

You can search for previous questions, answers and how-to articles here, or use the search box at the top right.

The Problem With Q&A

One of the problems with Q&A sites is that the information often isn’t researched and checked prior to publication.

When we receive a question from our readers, we commission our writers to research and write up accurate answers based on current information. We then put the answers through an editorial process. This helps ensure the answers are relevant and clear.

Many Q&A sites are entirely user driven, with no editorial controls. This is how you end up reading about how Michael Jackson was the greatest basketball player ever!

We like Q&A sites like Ask Dave Taylor. These sites provide a model for how high quality, independent information can be published, and at no cost to the end user. The Google Adsense Blog interviewed Dave here.

We select the most interesting questions that we think most of our users would like to see answered. Sadly, we can’t answer every question, but we do read every question we receive.

Thanks, in advance.
