This is my own personal list of several blogs I personally do not care about for several reasons that I will not single out here. The reasons include one and usually more than one of the following:
- content (quality/originality/analysis)
- level of aggressive selling/credit card pushing
- bias in posting
- disclosure policies (lack of)
- excessive click bait
The TBB community highly encourages readers not to get credit cards through the affiliate links of these sites.
Full Disclosure: Over 98% of blogs in the travel hacking space would not exist if it was not for the rampant shilling of credit card affiliate links. Please see my infamous rant about this: The “Travel” Miles/Points Blogosphere Has Turned Into a Giant Credit Card Pumpization Scheme!

This is a permanent page, no comments are allowed.
