What’s going on people?! Have any of you noticed the sneaky AdSense ads that have been blatantly displayed on JohnCow dot Com lately? It seems some naughty are slamming us with an AdSense Ads Attack!
First one to start doing this was Mr. Vaughan, then Kumiko was featured briefly (no screenshot unfortunately but it was something about eating our beef
) and now Miss Becky from PreBlogging.com is spreading all sorts of evil lies! We don’t have a calf and we deny any involvement in these cheap tricks they’re using to get some attention!
Here’s some proof of the vandals work just in case you had not seen them plastered all over our beautiful blog yet!













It’s funny because it fits in with the site’s normal content about cows and mooing. I’d say they get the award for best site-targeted Adsense ad on John Cow. (It’s certainly better than the lame attempts shown here.) Created by:: Internet Marketing Sucks

re using to get some attention! Here’s some proof of the vandals work just in case you had not seen them plastered all over our beautiful blog yet! If you liked this post, buy us some milk. ?ród?o: John Cow
Last week I decided to play around with my AdWords account and to put some ads up on JohnCow’s site which resulted in getting a “free”back link and a bit of exposure for the blog. [IMG adwords summary]
If, for instance,you have accumulated $2000 in AdSense revenuefrom the 1st of the month to the seventh, you must wait until the 15th to receive it in the form of a check or direct deposit. Why?

While their review costs $200, I was promoting free reviews over here… A total difference of USD$200 which computes to about SGD$300 in my country. Moreover, their RSS subscription is over 300! I particularly like theAdsense Attackpost where everybody is advertising on John Cow in Google Adsense, telling something about their opinions about John Cow… Oh I love it! Just take a look at the steep curve on the traffic graph in Alexa

How funny / creative! I think they’re great, what a hit you have here
.
i think its a smart move!
It is in some ways, but its a method that has been done tho
The best money on I’ve spent on AdWords
More interesting ones and other people tomorrow !
Did you get any visits from those ads? I remember someone putting an ad like this in DigitalPoint. He later lamented that a large number of people clicked on the ad and he lost a lot of money
.
The adword “John Cow” likely only costs a penny or so right now. That will change as this site continues to grow.
It is not the keyword that costs. It is putting your ads in a high traffic site like this, that leads to the increased rate.
how much money did it cost?
You set your own rates with adwords
LOL first it was John Chow’s name used in adwords ads. It isn’t surprising and should have been expected that the Cow would follow the same path, whether you wanted to happen or not
That’s funny. They’re using your tactics against you.
very funny trick.. LOL
I should do one.

Ha – very creative! When it comes to something like this, I wouldn’t have a cow.
Oh, you already are. Doh.
hahaa that’s just funny. They just love the cow.. what can you do!?
true hahaha more like they love his traffic!
Mr Cow amuses us all, its the main reason we keep coming back for more of his milk =] Truly it does a body good lol
classic use of comedy to get traffic.
Its becoming more common these days to generate adwords like this

Hi jeba, I added the link to your source now, i found it via this search term.
The AdWords thing was a bit of fun while it lasted. I tried to have an image ad but that didn’t seem to come through.
I like all ads, people doing good stuff!

Etienne is my new hero.
I don’t like ads too much but maybe its a good thing not so many people, but then again that means you don’t make as much money either. It’s kind of a double edged sword
Lol that was pretty cool!

That's funny. They're using your tactics against you.
I do when I am at home. But at work, I have no choice, they only use IE6 and all installation is disabled by admin. It doesn’t matter, I gave my notice so I won’t be there for long anyway
Use Opera. The fastest browser in the world.
How do you manage to comment at such a high rate? :s
Are you sure you work as a journalist?
Well, that’s what they tell me.
LOL
