Advertising on SpeedCheck
An overview of how advertising works on SpeedCheck and the principles we follow to keep ads from interfering with testing.
Advertising Principles
Advertising helps fund the development of new tools and the maintenance of existing infrastructure. At the same time, we recognize that intrusive or misleading ads can undermine trust, especially on sites that discuss security and privacy.
Our approach is to favor clearly labeled, static placements over pop‑ups or auto‑playing media. We avoid formats that interfere with test accuracy or push users into installing unnecessary software.
Relevance and Transparency
We focus on ads that are relevant to connectivity, hardware, and security rather than unrelated products. When sponsored content or affiliate links appear, they are marked as such so that you can distinguish editorial recommendations from paid placements.
If you prefer an ad‑light or ad‑free experience, modern browsers and content blockers give you that choice. Our goal is to operate in a way that still delivers value even when some visitors block ads entirely.
