    Yep- Joel's Book, The AdSense Code, is listed as #6 on the NY Times Paperback Business Best Sellers list for the month of July.

    Heh.

    I wonder what ad revenue you'll get with a thread on DP that mentions the Da Vinci Code (book and/or film). ;)

    Cryo.

    I bought the book and it was lame. Full of ads and affiliate links. After reading it, I have to say he seems like...well, i won't get into name calling.

    Are the last 3 posts talking about the Da Vinci Code too? Does the film have sublimal advertising and product placement? Heh ;)

    Joel Comm makes more money writing books about how to make money than he actually does make money online I suspect. :D

    I'd buy it! Or steal it off the Internet. Either/or.






    Okay, I'll probably just steal it off the Internet. :D

    I bought his Book, I thought it was worth th $16, sure it didn't change my world but I don't doubt the two or three tips I picked up with will pay that $16 off 100 times over.

    Wake me up when anything written by Joel Comm sells 50 million +ncopies like the Da Vinci Code did.It's done so well last week on publication because Comm has spammed all his followers to buy online from Amazon.lol.

    LOL, very true - but if anything you have to appreciate his ability to market ;) and make money while doing it - and let's face it in the business world the best quality doesn't always win the best marketing strategy does... *cough*Microsoft*cough*.

    :eek:
