Questions about the blog
- What does the LeoSatNetwork blog publish?
- Two kinds of posts: news, our own reporting on what changed in the Starlink and satellite ecosystem, and articles, analysis for business buyers, resellers and installers (3 articles and 0 news posts published so far). Evergreen how-to content lives in the guides section instead.
- How is a post checked before publication?
- Every figure is taken from a primary source (the operator's site, a regulator, a company filing) and dated in the text; sources are listed at the end of each post. Posts are updated when a price or a fact changes, and the page shows the real modification date.
- Who writes the posts?
- The LeoSatNetwork editorial team, which also maintains the directory. We are independent of SpaceX, Starlink, Eutelsat OneWeb, Amazon and the companies we list; listed providers cannot sponsor or edit a post.
