Start Here: Welcome to Kevin The Tech Guy!

This is a quick guide to what this website and my home business is all about, from free posts anyone can read, to the benefits paid subscribers have access to.

Welcome! My name is Kevin. I live in Red Deer, Alberta. This website is where I share straightforward tech tips and advice to make your computers and devices less frustrating. I’ve been creating blog posts and videos, as well as performing computer repair work in Alberta for over 20 years. This post is here to help you find your way around.

Some of what I publish is free for everyone. These blog posts cover practical fixes, how-to guides, and quick tips.

If you’d like to support what I do, paid subscribers make my work possible and gain early access to many of my blog posts, access to exclusive content, a dedicated monthly newsletter, a dedicated monthly Q&A video, and other perks.

Here’s What You’ll Find Here

Plain-English explanations of Windows, iPhone, popular software, quick fixes you can apply right away, updates about my computer repair work in Red Deer, and other extras for paid subscribers.

If you want posts delivered directly to your inbox, you can subscribe for free to receive either my free or paid newsletters.

Computer Repair

I provide computer repair services at my home office by appointment, focusing on straightforward fixes without upselling or jargon. My work ranges from routine maintenance, including system cleanups, tune-ups, and software installations, to more complex tasks such as fresh Windows installations, troubleshooting issues, and upgrading desktops or laptops where possible.

My goal is to give each job the attention it deserves and ensure your computer runs smoothly.

Here’s what free subscribers receive:

• Blog posts, including Quick Tips, Kevin’s Picks, and regular updates. (but paid subs get them first).

• Time-sensitive posts, like Patch Tuesday updates or urgent tech news, will be published to everyone right away.

• Bonus or behind-the-scenes content will remain exclusive to paid subscribers and will not be made public later.

Here’s what paid subscribers receive:

• Early access to most blog posts.

• Real-world repair stories and solutions:
  I’ll be sharing short, focused posts about the actual computer repair issues I’m dealing with, and how I’ve solved them. I am no longer publishing longer blog posts or How Tos. My focus is now on quick, useful insights.

• Monthly Q&A post:
  Once a month, I’ll answer questions from subscribers, whether they’re tech-related or about how I run things behind the scenes.

• Monthly video:
  A short video each month offering quick advice and some computer repair solutions from recent weeks.

• Occasional bonus content:
  These may include behind-the-scenes updates, reflections on the work I’m doing, or subscriber-only posts I don’t publish publicly.
