    I was just wondering who everybody else is considering as a guru.

    Most people know gurus like Jeremy Shoemaker, John Chow, ProBlogger but are there more and what makes them a guru for you worth following.

    let me know what you think

    Steve Weber. He's not really a "guru" per se but more of a mentor. Really detailed. He teaches the nuts and bolts of building a website. He explains search engine optimization very well from Google's point of view. Just straight forward stuff.

    I consider my self a guru, lol but really i mean if you cant look up at yourself and accomplish your goals a guru wont do good you have to believe in yourself, a guru wont make you money, you will make yourself money, think positive and good things happen i don't believe in gurus at the end they want money and that's all lol. The reason their rich is because theirs tons of newbs looking for help its a big market.

    Frank Kern and Mike Filsaime.

    in all honesty them being "gurus" in your eyes is there marketing angle since people consider them godly lol they can sell anything and people will buy its all business if these guys went out of their way and helped for free to the fullest i would be impressed.
