About
Computeractive is published in the UK by Incisive Media. Contact information can be found here
The magazine is published fortnightly and has a circulation of 177,330 copies, audited by ABC
The website is updated daily and gives free access to a wide range of step-by-step guides, reviews, PC help topics, video tutorials, news stories, exclusive offers, competitions and more.
Computeractive's ethos is to make home computing accessible to all, regardless of their age or technical ability. It does so by demystifying computers and explaining their potential benefits. Our reviews and features can be relied upon to provide readers with the essential aspects of a piece of technology without leaving them feeling buried in terminology.
To this end we avoid jargon wherever possible. Where it is unavoidable, we employ the Jargon Buster to explain terms away from a piece of copy that it would otherwise interrupt.
Computeractive has been approved by the Plain English Campaign.
