Boycotting For Dummies
| Share |
“Enough is enough! John Chow is becoming too rich and we need to put a halt to his evil blog before he grabs all the money in the world! All us other bloggers can’t make any more money because the bad Chow has it all! A boycott is what we need, stick it to the man who calls himself an Internet Mogul! Stop reading Chow’s Reviewme reviews and especially stop clicking his ads, they are the source of his income which is actually supposed to be mine. It’s not fair! Boohoo mommy!”
So it seems our favorite money making blogger has ticked off another “I’m so poor I have to use blogspot.com” blogger. John, you’re so naughty! One thing though Mr Boycotter, if you’re really upset about the Big Beef’s success and all the money he’s earning and you really want to get your point across about Mr. Chow being greedy, we suggest you ditch the 120×240 AdWords banner which is nearly bigger than the rest of your blog. Good luck rounding up the villagers with pitchforks and torches!

I wonder how much JC will make this month.
I am more curious to see how much he’ll pump out for the month of september since that will he the first full month he has the new design and everything charged for. Not to mention probably a new price plan for the 250×300 ad spot. Supposely google adsense will click rates will go back up and although he is considering removing them from his site to sell those ad spots directly, for the time being I think he’ll still run them. I am sure he’ll beat the 13k mark.
Um, yeah, this won’t go anywhere.
He says, “Blogging should be about writing something you’re passionate about and not to see if you’re able to outperform last month’s revenue.”
If you want to make good money from your blog, you either write about something you are passionate about and the money will follow OR you set yourself apart from the crowd. John has set himself apart from the crowd.
Blogging is not just about writing something your are passionate about. I mean geez, here’s how wikipedia defines it,
“Blogs provide commentary or news on a particular subject such as food, politics, or local news; some function as more personal online diaries.”
A person’s blog is theirs to do whatever the heck they want to do with it. If John Chow wants to see how much money he can make with his, I say go for it!
Besides Mr. Boycotter, no one said you HAVE to go read it. Go somewhere else.
I find it funny that by boycotting John Chow, he’s just going to bring more attention to Mr. Chow. There’s no such thing as bad press people.
John Chow has already announced that he is considering removing all adsense ads from his site and selling the ad spots directly. This kinda ruins Mr. Boycotter’s theory of people clicking on his ads for long.
Boycotting won’t help, what you need to do is outsmart the man at his own game.
I agree with the bad press point, I think that draws more attention, that’s why linkbait is so successful when executed correctly.
the only problem is I don’t think you can linkbait johnchow to talk about you smashing him. lol
Thanks for the personal blog entry. I really appreciate it!
This is never going to go anywhere. Wanting to boycott it just makes it forbidden which makes JC all the more desierable.
I bet its Chow’s new blog
Would be a great way to build buzz. I win a prize if I’m right!
And boy would that ever be evil! I think you might be onto something there
I think you are right. The Cow and Chow seem to be thick as thieves these days and they are more than likely in on this MrBoycotter together as well. After that whole linkbait scam they pulled off a few weeks ago ( help they shut me down blah blah blah) can we really trust these two anymore for anything other than great ideas.
It sounds very evil to me!
Looks like the blog has completely changed. It is not the Boycott Blog anymore. I Wonder what happened?
Check this out… the Google Fight of the century… in one corner we have the Big Beef himself Jooooohhhn Chow, in the other corner we have a new contender to ring (aka blogosphere), the milk machine himself… Jooooohn Cow… Who will win? See for yourself =]

My boycotter has changed his post. Looks like boycottjohnchow.blogspot.com was setup as linkbait.
Brilliant move actually.
LMAO it’s not brilliant at all. I didn’t even bother clicking on his site. Most people wouldn’t even care to read stuff like that. Why in the hell would that be brilliant at all.
Looks like he tried to get some digg hits, looks like it didn’t work, check it out, right now its at 1 digg.
For some reason the link didn’t work so here it is again, http://digg.com/tech_news/Boycott_John_Chow_dot_com
I think the 1 digg speaks for itself lol.
Nice linkbait- I think I’ll set up a “Boycott the Boycott John Chow Site.”
he is just trying to generate a buzz for his chow hate site to then parlay it into his own money making blog. i guess its sorta working.
Nah, we will have all forgotten about him by then.
yes lets hope so. lol.
Looks like the cow isn’t the only one who knows how to linkbait!
The site has been changed already, as mentioned above.
meh he sounds like someone didn’t get a toy in his Happy Meal
I find it interesing that after the change it just links to “No Cows”. Maybe there will be a Boycott John Cow site next. *L*
I’m boycotting boycotts from now on.
Let’s forget about boycotter.
Cow, are you Mooing for new theme or not?
hey. John COW! hahaah. hey i’m recruiting for my current class would you like to join?? you can check more info on the “society” on my sidebar.
What’s the benefit aside from being on the sidebar? What is this current class for?
It’s a link train. A link train combined with an MLM scheme no less. *L*
haha this guy is too funny!
what a fool,
but now his site points to no cows
boycott boycotted boycotts…come to my site instead
truly funny. I guess his whole blog is going to be about boycotting John Chow…I think there are no bad blogging platforms…just bad blogging.
[...] after the mysterious disappearance of the Boycott John Chow page, we received an email which explains it all. It all seems a bit fishy to us but we’ll [...]
Funny topic, but I don’t think you have a chance.
