Yes, it’s true. Design is sort of an appetizer. Presentation is more like garnish, tantalizing the taste buds of the mind to act upon such cuisine.

I totally hated ProBlogger's new design and have no idea why people thought it looked good. Then again I never liked his previous design either. Yeah, I like the new John Chow design a lot.

Keep in mind however, the objective of his blog is to push it as far as he can while still maintaining a good user experience. While this theme does have more ad spots, it hardly takes up any more space now than it did before that would technically interfere with the readers. That said, its not about whether he makes enough or not already, it's an experiment to see whats the maximum he can make. I am sure that his major income doesn't come from the blog to begin with, and that all the money he generates off the blog is pure gravy on the side. People think that he's totally screwing his readers to make as much money as possible but you got to keep in mind thats not the case. There would be no point to keep up with the case study if he doesn't stick to his original goal of pushing his limits, afterall, that was the plan from the very beginning, not "let's see if I can hit $10,000 and then stop there".

But after a while, some will survive the test of time while others will look jaded as familiarity creeps in. Chow's new-look is refreshing now. It looks more like a business website than a blog. As for the Cow blog, it can stay as it is and go about its merry ways, or continue to parody the Big Beef with another makeover. I don't know, that's up to Bob to decide.

It's sharp, bright, organized, but not too flashy. To be honest, it's one I'm quite jealous of. However, I have to agree with you cows on the fact that there are way too many ads. John's already making plenty of money to live the rich life, so why does he still need so much more? If I was him I'd stop for a second and not do EVERYTHING just for the money. Even if he doesn't make as much, he could show some more respect to his readers and make it more about content than all those ads.
