About VPN Adviser

VPN Adviser is an independent website that tests and reviews VPN services. We don't take money for rankings. We don't publish paid reviews. Every score you see on this site reflects real testing.

How We Test VPNs

Each VPN on this site goes through a consistent evaluation process:

• ✓Speed tests across multiple servers and regions
• ✓DNS and WebRTC leak checks
• ✓Streaming performance (Netflix, BBC iPlayer, Disney+)
• ✓Privacy policy and jurisdiction review
• ✓App usability on Windows, Mac, iOS, and Android
• ✓Customer support response time and quality

How We Make Money

When you click an affiliate link on VPN Adviser and buy a VPN subscription, we earn a commission from the VPN provider. You pay exactly the same price either way.

This is how most review sites work. The difference is that we don't let commission rates influence our rankings. Our top pick earns a modest commission; some of the VPNs we don't recommend pay more. We'd rather give you accurate information.

Why We Built This

Most VPN review sites are owned by the VPN companies themselves, or take paid placements to push VPNs that pay more. We found that frustrating, so we built a resource we'd actually use ourselves.

VPN Adviser is a small operation. We publish reviews, comparisons, and guides based on real usage. If you spot something wrong, or think we've missed something important, get in touch.
