Our Standard

Tech Dads Life is written for UK families who want practical, plain-English technology advice. The site covers gadgets, AI tools, smart home kit, 3D printing, electric vehicles, home energy, CES, and the everyday tech decisions that land in family life.

The goal is simple: help readers decide what is worth their time, money, or attention.

How Topics Are Chosen

Articles are chosen because they answer a real reader question, reflect something Mike is using or researching, or explain a technology trend that could matter to families. We avoid publishing articles just because a keyword exists. If a topic is too broad or does not fit Tech Dads Life, it should not be published.

Originality and Experience

Articles should add something beyond a generic summary. Depending on the topic, that may include:

  • First-hand use of a product, app, tool, or setup.
  • A parent or family-life angle.
  • UK-specific pricing, rules, availability, or practical context.
  • CES attendance and industry context.
  • Clear reasoning about who should buy, skip, wait, or upgrade.
  • Screenshots, photos, examples, or lessons learned where useful.

When an article is based on research rather than hands-on testing, it should be clear from the wording. We do not pretend to have tested products we have not used.

Some pages may include affiliate links. If a reader buys through those links, Tech Dads Life may earn a small commission at no extra cost to the reader.

Affiliate relationships do not decide the verdict. Recommendations should be included only when they are relevant to the article and useful to the reader. A product should not be recommended just because it has an affiliate programme.

Corrections and Updates

Technology changes quickly. If something is wrong, outdated, or unclear, readers can contact us at hello@techdadslife.com . Corrections should be made promptly when they affect the usefulness or accuracy of an article.

Advertising

Advertising, analytics, and cookies are explained in the Privacy Policy and Cookie Policy . Ads and sponsored material should not interfere with reading the article or make it hard to navigate the site.
