About Us
Our Story
Everyday Hacks began in 2015 as a simple passion project by Sarah Chen, an environmental scientist with a knack for finding elegant solutions to daily challenges. Frustrated by the abundance of expensive, chemical-laden products that often created more problems than they solved, Sarah started documenting her grandmother's time-tested household methods and adapting them for modern homes.
What started as a personal blog quickly resonated with thousands of people who were also seeking more sustainable, cost-effective alternatives to commercial products. As Sarah's collection of tested solutions grew, so did her audience. Within a year, her weekend project had transformed into a full-time mission.
In 2018, Sarah invited a team of like-minded specialists to join her—from chemists and home economists to professional organizers and culinary experts—creating a diverse knowledge base that spans multiple disciplines. Together, they've created a rigorous testing methodology that ensures every hack we share is thoroughly verified before reaching our community.
Today, Everyday Hacks serves over 2 million monthly visitors from around the world, helping households save money, reduce environmental impact, and simplify daily tasks through practical, accessible solutions.
