Credit Card conversions genuinely are a "gold mine" and often "pervert" advert revenue numbers. Been that way for years and years.
There seem to be blogs that don't try to sell credit card sign ups. They offer either their opinions or trip reports. Surely, being on BA can help with the view count? I'm guessing this isn't very profitable and will likely not break even?
