About 2search

#Who we are

2search is an independent, research-led reference website based in India.

2search is editorially independent: no one can pay for coverage, rankings or links on 2search. We answer the questions people search for every day — what something costs, how to do it, and which option is better — in plain language, with every important number linked to its source.

#What we write about

• Home costs — heating and cooling, plumbing, roofing and exterior, remodelling
• Energy savings — lower bills, solar, insulation, inverters
• Smart home and technology — phones, laptops, Wi-Fi, passwords and security
• Personal finance — tax, savings, credit scores, retirement accounts
• Government services in India — passport, Aadhaar, PAN, PF, voter ID and more
• Business — GST, MSME registration, freelancing and business structures
• Insurance — how much life, term and mortgage insurance you need, and what it costs
• Exams and news explainers — dates, fees and official updates, with sources

Each article shows the country it's written for, mostly India and the USA, with some guides for everyone.

#Free calculators

Our calculators — income tax (new vs old regime), loan EMI, SIP, US mortgage, GST and compound interest — run entirely in your browser. Each one has a guide explaining the formula and the official rules it uses.

#How we write

Every article starts with official sources and published data, gives a short answer first, then explains the detail with tables, examples and steps. We check every figure before publishing and review money and government topics regularly. Read the editorial policy.

#What we're not

We're not a government website, a bank, a contractor or a financial adviser. We don't sell anything or take payments. Our guides are information to help you decide — see the disclaimer.

#How 2search stays free

Ads from Google AdSense pay for research and hosting. Advertisers have no say in what we write. See the advertising policy.
