Editorial Policy
Quality standards for our guides
We publish troubleshooting guides that help people fix real browser issues without guesswork. Our goal is simple: give you steps you can run, signals you can verify, and sources you can trust.
What we prioritize
- Accuracy: We link to primary sources (MDN and vendor docs) whenever possible.
- Verifiability: Each guide includes a way to confirm the fix worked (usually by re-running a relevant test on this site).
- Safety: We prefer scoped changes (site-level permissions, per-site cookie exceptions) over broad settings changes.
- Clarity: Steps are written to be followed by non-experts, with precise UI labels and expected outcomes.
Sources and citations
Each guide includes a Sources section with links to primary references (MDN, browser vendor support, OS vendor documentation). When a guide discusses a browser behavior that changes over time, we update the guide and refresh the review date.
Review and updates
Every guide displays Published and Updated dates, and when applicable, a Reviewed date. Reviews focus on:
- Whether the steps still match current browser UI
- Whether the expected outcomes still occur
- Whether linked sources remain relevant
- Whether we can verify the fix using our tests
Corrections
If something is wrong or outdated, email privacy@testyourbrowser.com. Include the guide URL, your browser/OS, and what you observed. We’ll update the guide and adjust review dates when needed.
Advertising and independence
Ads help keep the tools free. Our editorial content is written independently from advertising. We do not publish paid “fix” posts or accept payment for ranking guides.
