John Chow's Blog - A Review
If you haven't read John Chow's blog yet, you should check it out. This site is very informative for those of you looking to make a buck off your website or just increase traffic.
He is from Vancouver and his blog has been up for a little over a year. He actually prints some of his statistics and has documented what has worked for him in creating his website. He is one of the few people I actually believe when they give advice about developing a website for revenue purposes. I really find a lot of these "how to make money on the internet" sites annoying and lacking credibility, but so far I have to say he comes across as genuine.
When I started reading it he had made ad revenue in the hundreds a month for that month. I think last month he cleared 2000 bucks. Pretty impressive. There are lots of other interesting personal articles, which being a fellow Canadian, are quite interesting.
I have used his advice on adsense and actually verified it for myself. The 300 X 250 ads make way more money than the other ones.
To not be to one-sided, I would like to say the his site doesn't offer much in the way of how to generate traffic. He mentions in one post that he emailed around 200 other sites with similar content and asked if they would do a post for him, but he never clarified which of his sites it was for. I would really like to know how he got his traffic for his personal blog site (I know he did have articles hit up by digg, but he must have had readers before that point).
Make sure to check out his top posts section and do a search for adsense or recap articles. They will definitely have something useful in them for you.
