    He will get the visitors down to making a name for himself. I bet there are only a handful of people you can name by name who have made money from internet marketing, John been one of them.

    Who cares? He's making plenty of money with it and I bet you wouldn't mind having a blog like JohnChow.com for yourself.

    the number with the earnings are faked, or let's say " adjusted". I came across to know this lately.

    alot of hositility, but if you notice even when google kicked him off ... his readers increased to 16k lol now that have to be something. His recent tax tips were sweet .. I mean the guy knows what he is doing. Yes he have tons of ads on the page, but he gotta make money just like the rest of us. You dont like the site then don't go.
