My Fascination With John Chow

Do you ever get the feeling you're being watched? I'm willing to bet John Chow feels that way every single day with his blog titled, "Make Money Online with John Chow dot Com."


Just as the blog is titled, he's blogging to help you make money online and of course make some money himself (who can blame him). So, I've decided to do a review of his blog since I can't get enough of it. And in return he's promised to link little old me if I review his blog. Thanks John and without further ado, here's the review!


What I think of John Chow's Blog

Everyone is entitled to an opinion and here's mine. When I first ran across John Chow's blog I was fascinated with his articles on how to make money with your blog. Then I dug further into his blog and found a couple of interesting articles about what he's actually making (a month by month breakdown) and who paid what to him. Very Cool! John is not just about making money, however. I actually learned that, after running across an article back in March that left me giggling, "Proof That Girls Are Evil" and inspired me to post my own article in reply titled, "Proof That Girls Are Not Evil."

Why You Should Be A John Chow Fan

He will show you where the money is and how to get your own. Plus he's one of the better how to make money bloggers that I've ran across. He also runs a few contests now and then, that don't cost you a penny to enter! And last, but certainly not least, he's gained some pretty good exposure, which can help you as well.

My Final Thoughts...

What it all boils down to is this: Sure there are some other great bloggers who are interested in showing you how to make money (I've added a few to my bookmarks), but what I love about John Chow's blog is that it's very informative. All in All, his blog is simply put, "A Damn Good Read."

Thank You John for allowing me the opportunity to review your blog. If you're ever up for an interview, I'd be happy to do one and post it here.

Promoting for what it's really worth...

Over the past few days I have noticed a lot of people promoting their blogs and websites to make money. That's great, but what I wonder is how many people really believe in what they are promoting? Very few I am guessing.

Why am I even asking this question, you may be wondering. Well, let's look at it this way, if you were to go to a blog or site promoting a particular product with no real info about that product, how likely are you going to click on that link? Not very likely I am willing to bet. If you sit down and take the time to promote products or services that you would use/have used, or would highly recommend to a friend or family member, your chances of a reader clicking on that link are going to increase!

Like for instance, I'm not a techno geek. While I may l have a love/hate relationship with my laptop and have taken it a part and put it back together again, I am certainly not going to start promoting laptops, computers or anything else related to my laptop. Now if by chance I've used that brand of laptop or just bought one, then I might throw in a link to promote that particular item. It all boils down to, if I haven't used it and I never plan to, I'm not going to promote it. Same for services and organizations. If I don't believe in them, I'm not going to promote them.

Really, I promise I am not a bitch .lol I just can't see myself promoting something that I wouldn't want to use or be a part of. :)
