How does Green Writer pick topics and products?
We start with what readers are likely to find useful and what people are searching for. A product has to be available to buy before it appears in a guide or listing. In practice, that means we write about solar chargers, efficient lighting, grow lights and hydroponic equipment that readers can actually get.
Where does the information come from?
Manufacturer specifications, public product information and aggregated buyer feedback. That is all. No lab or hands-on testing sits behind our pages, so we describe what the published sources say and avoid saying more.
How are articles written and reviewed?
Drafts are written with AI writing tools, and the Green Writer Editorial Team reviews them before publication. The review means checking claims against the sources, removing anything unsupported and making the wording plain. Using AI tools is a normal part of our workflow, and review by people is what makes a draft ready to publish.
Do affiliate commissions influence what you recommend?
Never. Commissions are how the site earns money, but they play no part in choosing or ranking products. Our Affiliate Disclosure has the details.
How and when is content updated?
Product specifications and prices change, so we revisit pages when a model is replaced, when a source changes or when a reader points out a problem. We don’t follow a fixed calendar. Pages that can no longer be kept accurate are rewritten or taken down.
What should I do if I find an error?
Write to editorial@greenwriter.org. The Corrections Policy explains what we do after that.
What do we avoid?
- Invented people, credentials or statistics
- Saying a product was tested when it was not
- Letting makers or stores approve what we publish

Who is responsible for what is published?
Pages carry the name of the Green Writer Editorial Team rather than individual bylines. The team as a whole stands behind the content, and any reader can write to us about a specific page.
How do guides differ from listings?
Guides explain a subject, for example how to compare grow light output or what a solar charge controller does. Listings collect products with their published details. The same standards for sourcing, review and corrections cover both.
Do manufacturers get to see pages first?
No. Makers and stores don’t approve our pages before they go live. If one writes to us with a correction, we handle it like any other report and check it against published information.
