Can I advertise on this web site?

Yes – with some limitations. We only advertise for exceptionally good products from serious providers, things that we ourselves would also recommend with a good conscience. We are not publishing paid articles-but we run banner and affiliate advertisements. Currently we are building a sponsoring infrastructure. If you consider your product (or that of your client) a good fit for the site we would love to hear from you: hello@geekout.de

How are product reviews initiated?

Usually we are contacting the providers of the products we intend to review. Our reviews have no promotional context, even if there sometimes will be giveaways for the readers in form of promo codes or free licenses. Should you have a product that we should definitely have a look at, please inform us briefly via email.

Important: Please do not send us any promo kits or test units and licences without prior communication. Thank you.
