How TechnoBabu decides what to publish, who writes it, how guides are tested, and how we keep advertising away from editorial decisions. This page exists because trust has to be earned — so here is exactly how the site works.
Who writes TechnoBabu
Articles are written and edited by Anurag Sinha, who has spent years building websites, running home servers on everything from a Raspberry Pi to retired office desktops, configuring VPNs, and automating routine tasks. The guides come from first-hand experience, not from rewriting other people’s posts. When a topic needs expertise we don’t have, we say so and point you to a more authoritative source rather than bluffing.
Testing before publishing
Every how-to guide is executed end-to-end on real hardware or a real server before it is published. Screenshots and command output come from those runs. If we can’t test something (for example, hardware we don’t own), the article says so plainly instead of pretending. Where a guide involves cost, the prices are checked against Indian sellers at the time of writing and dated, because hardware and hosting prices here move quickly.
Sourcing and accuracy
Technical claims are checked against official documentation, and we link to primary sources — vendor docs, RFCs, regulator notices — rather than asking you to take our word for it. When a guide touches on regulation (such as India’s CERT-In directions affecting VPN providers), we describe our lay understanding and link the source, and we flag clearly that it is not legal advice.
Recommendations
When we recommend a product, host or service, the recommendation is based on our own use and publicly verifiable facts. No vendor can pay to be recommended, to have criticism removed, or to see an article before publication.
Advertising separation
Ads on this site are served by Google AdSense and chosen by Google’s systems, not by us. Advertisers have no influence on what we write. If we ever publish sponsored content, it will be labelled “Sponsored” at the top of the article — no exceptions.
Corrections and updates
When a reader reports an error and we verify it, we correct the article and add an update note. When software changes make a guide outdated, we either update it or mark it clearly as legacy. Report errors to contact@technobabu.com.
Use of AI tools
We use software tools (including AI assistants) for drafting support, the same way we use spellcheckers and grammar tools. Every technical claim, command and price in a published article is human-verified through actual testing, and final editorial judgement is always human.
