WHAT IS BUZZBONGO?
BUZZBONGO is an online technology magazine. It is run by a group of enthusiastic computer experts whose goal is to inform the public in Tanzania and East Africa about the most relevant technological innovations on the market.
BUZZBONGO was launched in 2018.
BUZZBONGO has established itself as a reference medium for all types of PC users, especially enthusiasts and gamers who follow all the news and product reviews with great attention every day.
BUZZBONGO’s core focus is on reviews and comparisons of the latest and most important products, primarily high-end computer components such as microprocessors, graphics cards, motherboards, memory, cooling systems, power supplies, and more. They also analyze the most interesting smartphones, tablets, laptops, gadgets, and peripherals.
To carry out all these analyses, BUZZBONGO has its own laboratory in Madrid equipped with test benches with the most powerful and modern components and devices on the market, also having such fundamental elements as infrared thermometers with laser pointers, low-frequency sound level meters to measure the sound of the components, and electrical testers.
At the head of the lab is a team of professionals in analysis and article writing with more than 20 years of experience behind them, which is why they are considered the greatest experts in hardware at the Tanzanian and East African level, thus making BUZZBONGO a media outlet with countless followers.
Starting in July 2016, Parsec Media SL, the parent company of BUZZBONGO, opened its new headquarters in Dar es Salaam (Tanzania), from which the publication’s management, the writing of several sections, and a second support laboratory that complements the main laboratory located in Madrid are carried out.
BUZZBONGO’s Editorial Philosophy
Impartiality
The greatest value that has always defined BUZZBONGO has been impartiality and the quality of the publication.
It is common to think that the content of any technology publication is economically influenced by the manufacturers themselves, and it is likely that there are other websites or magazines where this is the case.
The BUZZBONGO team is proud to say that since its opening in 2018 to date, it has not published a single news item or analysis under the influence of manufacturers or for economic reasons.
It is true that the revenue comes from banner ads that can be found distributed in different parts of the website and that most of these spaces are contracted by the most important technology manufacturers in the world, manufacturers about whom news and analysis are published, which is inevitable due to their importance in the technology market.
To ensure that BUZZBONGO’s advertising services do not interfere with the quality of its publications, a clear strategy has always been followed: separating the editorial department from the advertising department. We can confirm that BUZZBONGO receives nothing in return for any of the news articles or analyses it publishes.
BUZZBONGO is a website where you can find news and reviews about products from manufacturers that have never been officially announced. You can also find reviews and news about products from manufacturers that have been announced. Our mission is to provide the truth, and nothing can stop us from doing so.
This philosophy is a big part of the success.
How are the contents chosen?
The key lies in the technology itself.
BUZZBONGO, with millions of readers per month, is the website where every manufacturer wants to showcase their products. While many of the products are good, being good doesn’t necessarily mean they’re interesting.
From BUZZBONGO’s point of view, a product is interesting when it brings something technologically new to the market that can make a significant difference for the user.
The most obvious example is graphics cards, especially reference models, since from one manufacturer, only the sticker changes, and at most, the free games included. If one of these has already been reviewed and published, the others aren’t going to teach us anything new.
In fact, despite the constant requests from manufacturers to review their products, it’s the editorial team that decides what to review, guided solely by their passion for technology. We love tinkering with new technologies; we don’t want to see anything less than the very latest.
Having said that, we can affirm that if a product is reviewed on BUZZBONGO, it is because it truly brings something new that is worth writing about.
