You may think of wikiHow as a typical Internet site. But, we are anything but typical. We put our hearts into giving you the most helpful how-to guides on the Internet. Most publishers have just one lonely author crank out an article and call it good. In contrast, the average wikiHow article has been edited by 23 people and reviewed by 16 people.

We use thousands of signals from our readers to let us know if content is helpful, relevant, and trustworthy. But that's not the only reason we're not your typical site.

wikiHow is on a Mission

We are on a mission to help everyone on the planet learn how to do anything. In fact, everything you read on wikiHow was written by someone who genuinely wanted to help someone else.

wikiHow is Universal

We human translate our articles into 17 different languages in an effort to be accessible to anyone on the planet who needs help.

wikiHow is a Team Effort

wikiHow isn't just the work of one person. Thousands of volunteers, the largest team of illustrators on the web, hundreds of photographers, and over 100 credentialed experts are continually working and reworking articles until they are the most helpful and reliable how-to guides on the web.
