Advertising & Partnerships
We keep editorial content independent — but we're open to partnerships that genuinely serve our readers.
What we never do
Paid placements in guide rankings, destination recommendations, or tool outputs. No company can pay to appear favourably in our editorial content. Our readers trust this site because of that line — we don't cross it.
What We Do Accept
Display Advertising
Standard display ads served by Google AdSense. Ads are clearly distinguished from editorial content and do not influence any recommendations.
Affiliate Partnerships
We link to products and services we have personally tested — primarily VPN services and eSIM providers. Affiliate relationships are disclosed on every page where links appear.
Clearly Labelled Sponsored Content
Long-form sponsored articles covering topics genuinely relevant to our audience (China travel, digital nomad life, tech tools). Always labelled as sponsored — never disguised as editorial.
Newsletter Sponsorships
Single-slot sponsorship in our traveller newsletter. Must be relevant to independent travel in China. Always clearly identified as a paid placement.
Our Audience
Independent travelers
Foreign visitors planning solo or small-group trips to China — high intent, researching before they book
Digital nomads
Remote workers exploring China's co-living ecosystem, visa-free options, and connectivity landscape
First-time visitors
Travelers navigating China's digital payment systems, apps, and logistics for the first time
