Commercial
sites and publications should be regarded with extreme skepticism
because they are more likely to recommend those who advertise with
them, regardless of quality, in preference to The Best who mightn't
advertise with them. Further, such sites and publications might not
have what you seek only because they do not pay to be mentioned. You
are advised, regardless of where you travel, to ask local people about
commercial sites' and publications' recommendations. |
