About Host Rehberi

Host Rehberi is an independent guide for people whose work, money and free time all run through a screen at some point in the day. We write about the technology in the living room, the software on the work laptop, the marketing a small business does online, and the everyday admin of moving between countries. The aim is simple: explain how things work, point out where they tend to go wrong, and leave the decisions to you.

What you will find here

Our articles fall into a few broad areas that overlap more than you might expect:

  • Home and streaming technology: internet television, set-top devices, connections and the set-ups that keep a household's screens working.
  • AI and software tools: what new tools actually do, how to judge them, and what to watch out for with data and security.
  • Online marketing: search visibility, video, podcasts and building an audience without shortcuts.
  • Small-business operations: suppliers, logistics, events and the routines that keep a lean team organised.
  • Money and insurance basics: how common products work in general terms, with costs and risks in view.
  • Expat life and travel: relocating, long stays and keeping a foot in two places.

If you are new, the Reading Corner groups our guides by topic and suggests where to begin.

How we write

We prefer practical steps to big predictions. When we describe a tool, we try to say who it suits and who it does not. When a subject touches money, health or the law, we keep the advice general and suggest talking to a qualified professional who knows your circumstances. We do not invent figures, and when we are unsure about something we say so instead of guessing.

Some older articles on the site were written in a different style and have been reworked over time. Where a guide still mentions a specific company or service, that mention is not a recommendation from us; compare options for yourself before you sign up for anything.

Who is behind it

A small group of writers working under pen names produces everything you read here. None of us holds a professional licence in finance, law or medicine, and we do not pretend otherwise. You can read a little more about each of us on the small team behind it.

Getting in touch

We are happy to hear from readers, whether you have a question, a topic you would like us to cover, or a mistake you have spotted. Our contact page explains how to reach us. If you think something in an article is wrong, the page on how we handle errors explains what happens after you write.

The writers

Four writers behind one mailbox

Everything here is written by a small group using pen names. None of us is a licensed professional in finance, law or medicine.

  • Ignatz

    Editor, work and small business

    Plans what gets written next and handles the career, office and small-business guides, usually starting from a reader's email.

  • Ondine

    Writer, home tech and devices

    Covers connections, home viewing set-ups and computers, and tests the steps on whatever hardware is lying around the house.

  • Bastiaan

    Writer, life abroad and money basics

    Looks after relocation, long stays and everyday money topics, always with the official guidance open in another tab.

  • Leopoldine

    Copy desk

    Reads every draft before it goes live, trimming jargon and flagging anything that sounds more certain than it should.
