    How did John Chow get banned from Google?

    Do you mean he got banned from the Google index or from Google AdSense?

    You'll never find John Chow no matter what you search for on GOogle. That's what I meant. But he can still use adsense.

    Hmm real question is who cares? I have never cared for him as he has done nothing to deserve the status people give him.

    "John Chow" gives me his blog as the first result so i can't see anything wrong. John Chow is full of crap though. Show me at least one useful post on his blog... All he does is talk about how much money he makes and tries to sell you a bunch of crap or make you sign up to crap.

    I don't think so. I heard he's using Adwords. He's a well-known blogger in the first place, why would he be banned?

    I think he promotes more ads in his blog. Then he got banned.

    Has he? I thought once in a while I still saw his blog appearing in some of my search results related to money making. Which one were you referring to? Or his Adsense account?

    Only he can answer that.. :p
    btw, he is not banned by google as his site still appears in searches. Don't know about Adsense though.
