    Many bloggers may have heard of John Chow and recently there is a blog that sort of copy the template and blog about the same topic... and its funny too :D

    Just Google for John Cow and you will see what I mean :) A good marketing strategy?

    Definitively a good marketing strategy. John Chow himself said that on his blog in regard of the BlogStorm Google Ads. The whole was about blogstorm ordering a reviewme from his blog, so he did notice that i think. Later on the review he quoted
    This guy is really evil..

    He is back to the top for his name, I guess the whole affair just got him some extra traffic.

    Didn't John Cow sufffer a big search engine demotion recently because he was apparently using some dodgy tricks, or something along those lines?

    The discussion is not about JohnChow.com. It is about another site JohnCow.com.
