Editorial Team
MoveYourMoney began its existence as a little for-fun project initiated by four friends who had the desire to research, review, and compare the best online products, services, and platforms. This quickly became a much more serious concept after one member of the group jokingly remarked, “we should just create a website where we share all that research and opinions we’ve been making to the world”.
The idea of a website, where people could access clear, transparent and useful info before making a decision online, caught on quickly, and thus MoveYourMoney was born after all our research convinced us that lots of people need help with finding simple, unbiased, easy to understand info to make informed decisions.
Today, our little side hobby has evolved into a full-time project, with an editorial team working on publishing useful, transparent and easy to understand content to the world.
Why We Started This Website
When we started this website, we all had full-time jobs which we worked on throughout the week. When we weren’t at work, we were usually researching, comparing, and talking about the various online products, services and platforms that we use or have used ourselves. Sometimes we’d make a decision that we didn’t end up liking and only afterwards realise that if only we’d been able to find something more clear, honest and useful, we wouldn’t have ended up in that situation.
With that in mind, we wanted to create a website where people could avoid making the wrong decision, save time, and simply know exactly what their options were. Rather than leave things up to chance or luck, we decided to take all the research, reviews and other useful info we came across and make it accessible to people online.
It’s that simple. We want to help people make better decisions.
What We Believe In
We believe that people deserve clear, honest and useful info before choosing any online product, service or platform. Before comparing and researching, when reading reviews or trying to learn how something works, people should never have to rely on ambiguous claims or confusing marketing materials.
We believe good, transparent content is informative, easy to understand, and practical in nature. That is why all of our content is written with this approach in mind. We explain things in clear, plain English and offer all the information that people want and need to make the right decision.
At MoveYourMoney, we believe that trust is earned through thoughtful research, balanced opinions, and consistent quality content. We do not seek to overwhelm our audience with too much information, rather we aim to offer information that we ourselves want before making a purchase, with content that is useful, balanced, and grounded in real world experience.
Editorial Team
As the website grew, so too did our workload. We started with four friends, and slowly grew into a group of writers, researchers, editors and analysts who help us maintain and grow the website for people everywhere. All of our editors have one goal: to create content to help consumers better understand their options. Our editorial and review process follows a set process and guidelines to ensure that all of our articles are accurate, fair, and easy to read.
All content is fact checked, structured, assessed for value, and reviewed against our editorial standards before publication. We also review and update older content as needed.
Research Analysts
Our research analysts dig deeper into a variety of products, services, tools, platforms, and the web. They go beyond general marketing claims to look at the key information that people actually care about and make decisions based on: Features, pricing, usability, reputation, support, customer service, security, trust, transparency, and overall value.
In addition to analyzing specific products and platforms, they also research industry trends so that readers can gain an in-depth understanding of the options that they have, as well as the trends that affect them.
Because of this process and the work of our research analysts, every word that you read is more than a hunch. It is based on research, comparison, and trend monitoring.
Our Research Process
All MoveYourMoney reviews are conducted using a systematic process. Although each article may differ, the process includes several of the following common steps:
We begin by establishing what people need to know and how they may use that information to guide their decisions. We then research the topic from all available angles and from different sources, analyze and compare that information to other sources, and check all relevant information.
We are then prepared to assess any information that affects the reader and how they may use the article. We are particularly interested in trust, value, usability, security, transparency, and anything else that may affect the person’s decision to purchase or use a particular product or service, as well as any downsides or pitfalls that users should be aware of. We want to give the reader enough information to be able to make an informed decision, rather than guide them in a particular direction. We also note the strengths and weaknesses of any particular product or service, because there is nothing perfect. It’s all about getting what you need.
Why Trust Us
MoveYourMoney is a collection of individuals who share a passion for honest research, actionable advice, and easy to understand communications. Many of us have been actively and personally researching products, services, platforms, and consumer-focused content for years.
We have all experienced frustration in searching for helpful information in our personal lives, only to be left with shallow summaries, or overly positive, or otherwise promotional content that did nothing to further our understanding of options. We’ve also had experiences where we found the information was helpful and useful, but not easily accessible.
Over the course of our collective experience, we’ve learned that people are looking for honesty. That’s why we’ve made a commitment to creating useful and reliable content, to presenting it in a straightforward and transparent manner, and to keeping our research detailed, accurate, and current. We are proud of everything that MoveYourMoney has become, and are constantly finding ways to improve both the website and our content, so that we can better help consumers make more informed decisions.
