Today I just clicked on the big German flag out of boredom and ended up on ' You Have Been Upgraded' in German, which reads like someone cranked up Google translate, typed up a few paragraphs in German that reads very weird and then pasted all the images s/he made during the trip.

You must have missed his posts here on FT where he just posts a link to his (very annoying) blog.

FlyerTalker techgirl just started a BA blog:
http://jetsettershomestead.boardinga...g-area-family/ I've known Jen for over a decade. She's a real BIS road warrior. Looking forward to seeing if she has an actual Very Frequent Business Traveler spin, rather than a 'look what I got (and you could get!) for free!' spin. |

looking at blog she also pays for some luxury travel that one cannot get via award

I wonder how long it'll be until she's forced to throw some cards around.
Willing to read her stuff as long as it's not littered by "ads" |

Definitely willing to give Jen the benefit of the doubt. If the blog is as good as her periodic insights on Facebook about her travels, it will be worth reading. |

Adding new blogs has certainly helpped traffic:
http://siteanalytics.compete.com/boa...c=uv&months=12 In the end UVs and page impressions is what counts in this business. And makes it an interesting asset to have. |
Numbers still seem a bit odd. They show 181k unique US visitors so probably global total of 250k.
I get 96k monthly uniques for my little blog - http://www.alexa.com/siteinfo/Headforpoints.com |

Well, you have to seed the site with some good stuff to retain quality UVs, they are certainly doing that.

Points, Miles, and Martinis managed to have an article about an email received from BA on the Chase BA card trumpeting that there's a 10% discount for holders of the card on BA flights--as if it were a new, limited time benefit instead of a benefit that has continuously been in effect ever since I got the card in April 2011 (although admittedly BA places a deadline at the end of each calendar year that has now been extended three times to the end of the following year).
Way to be on top of the basics. . . I was going to call it Points, Miles, and Macadamias!! but I heard a rumor United is switching from macadamias to peanuts. |
