Hey, We're BestVPNTips
We're a bunch of digital nomads, privacy nerds, and streaming addicts who got tired of reading VPN reviews that felt like they were written by robots (or worse, by the VPN companies themselves). So we made our own.
Meet the Humans Behind the Reviews
Not stock photos, not AI — actual people who use VPNs every single day
Alex
Privacy Nerd & Tech Geek
Reads privacy policies for fun. Has strong opinions about encryption protocols. Probably wearing a hoodie right now.
Sarah
Digital Nomad & Streaming Queen
Has watched Netflix in 15+ countries. Will judge a VPN primarily on whether it can unblock The Office (UK version, obviously).
James
Remote Worker & Speed Tester
Has tested VPNs on every type of sketchy WiFi imaginable. Knows which airports have the worst internet. Coffee addiction is real.

Our Story
It started when one of us was stuck in a hostel in Vietnam, desperately trying to watch the Champions League final. The "top-rated" VPN we'd bought based on some random review? Completely useless. That's when we realized most VPN reviews are garbage.
We're remote workers who hop between time zones, privacy enthusiasts who've read way too many terms of service, and yes, people who just want to watch Netflix libraries from other countries. We test VPNs the way you'll actually use them — on sketchy airport WiFi, in countries with strict internet rules, and while trying to stream the latest shows.
Real talk about money: Yeah, we make affiliate commissions when you buy through our links. But here's the thing — we'd rather you buy nothing than buy something that sucks. Our reputation is worth more than a quick buck.
No BS Reviews
We actually pay for and use these VPNs ourselves. If it sucks, we'll tell you.
Real-World Testing
We test from coffee shops in Bali, apartments in Berlin, and everywhere in between.
Community First
We recommend what we'd tell our friends, not what pays the highest commission.
Been There, Done That
Dealt with geo-blocks, sketchy WiFi, and privacy scares. We know the struggle.
How We Actually Test
No lab coats here — just real-world testing by people who actually use this stuff
The Speed Reality Check
We test speeds from wherever we happen to be — coworking spaces, Airbnbs, coffee shops with questionable WiFi. You know, the places you'll actually use a VPN.
The "Can I Actually Stream?" Test
Netflix, Disney+, BBC iPlayer, local sports — we try to watch what we want to watch. If it doesn't work, we'll tell you.
The Privacy Deep Dive
We actually read the privacy policies (so you don't have to). We check for leaks, verify no-logs claims, and dig into the company's history.
The "Is It Worth It?" Verdict
We compare what you're paying vs. what you're getting. Some expensive VPNs are worth it. Some cheap ones are amazing. We'll tell you the difference.
