HowSmart.net launched in 2020 as a news-based trivia website. It offers a weekly news quiz and daily trivia games that allow users to test their knowledge of current events, entertainment, history, arts, and more.

When false news articles are widely spread, we ensure that this site’s information comes from reliable and trustworthy sources. All answers on our website are cross-checked with the most trusted news providers on the planet and relevant government agencies and NGOs.

We also offer a unique opportunity for advertisers to engage users in challenging, empowering, and entertaining ways.

Our Mission

HowSmart.net aims to curate reliable news facts and deliver them to audiences everywhere, including those less likely to engage in news-oriented media. We chose to do it with fun and engaging free quizzes, as we believe information should be free and learning should be fun.

Our Products

We always strive to innovate and reach new audiences through new products.

Interactive Quizzes

HowSmart.net offers these types of interactive games:

  • Online interactive multiple-choice questions – in which each click reveals the correct answer and adds relevant news facts.
  • Downloadable PowerPoint files – each click reveals a possible answer and eliminates them until the correct answer remains and a news-fact is revealed.
