  1. dcr

    Sounds like fun! Now, to think of something creative…

  2. John, how many of those signed books do you have?

  3. Sign me up for two. I am going to win that monitor.

  4. Did you get that LCD for free? You do a giveaway contest every few weeks!

  5. everyone wants that monitor

  6. Adding a graphic pushes the ad space down… does that matter to your $1000 advertiser?

    • Why would it matter? That spot is a bargain for $1,000!

      • It would matter because it gets a lot less visibility. Now, whether the advertiser gets a say in it might be a different question.

      • You’re right when you say “that spot” is a bargain for $1000, but the point is that the graphic pushes the ad space down meaning that the original “spot” is no longer as valuable as the current “spot”.

        How much the advertiser minds and whether the evil one would be willing to do anything about it though is another matter!

  7. Eli

    I think I’ll have to pass… sorry.

  8. can u or anybody comments on my blog? :lol:

  9. Something smells fishy… could it be that John Chow is actually the person behind the million dollar wiki? Hmm… wish I could get plugged like this!

  10. I might think of writing about it… Hmm but what could be the best time, I think after office hours when my mind is all tired - then only I can think something creative ;)

  11. No it doesnt mean that, it means that the owner has come to John and together they have got together to make a deal.

    John might get $10 a purchase, and the monitor would have been supplied, plus John gets a lot of bonus exposure. This is a guess only, but im sure its pretty close

    • Ali

      ..or maybe John signed up for his affiliate program. You can do the same thing and give away a monitor too, of course you need to have an extra monitor to give away.

  12. I still remember the old folks say

    “The Only Straight About The Chinese Is Their Hair”

    -same goes to you john !! :)

    • Hey, that’s awesome, do you go around being racist on all blogs or just the more popular ones? :roll:

      I still remember my mom telling me “It’s better to have everyone think you’re an idiot than to open your mouth and prove them right.” I guess your mom never told you that.

    • John, you should find an affiliate program for Kleenex or a brand of paper towels or something. Then all these “Oh my gosh you are SO evil, John” idiots could buy something from you to wipe the brown stain off their noses.

      :roll: :roll:

  13. Considering John helped the Million Dollar Wiki sell 70 pages in one day, I’d say it was smart to work together on a new promotion. Unfortunately I already bought three pages, so I’ll pass on the page purchase so I’ll be writing about the contest instead.

  14. i bought one “wiki” already. i could smells that this website will be big faster than we ever think. to write about wiki and john will be great idea. because john and wiki wants our readers make money online too.

  15. damn i forgot to enter the coupon code :( that sucks

  16. uucat

    Wow, this is one pathetic scene.

    These sort of idiots take spam to a whole other level.

  17. gak ikutan ah, mesti bayar seeh

  18. John,

    You are evil! :evil: This is one great promo!

    Darin

  19. I bought a page :mrgreen: I hope I win the monitor.

  20. million dollarwiki is the next big thing out there, i think i’m buying me a page asap before it blows out of propotion. who knows i might get a chance to win the lcd too. Watch out for my page on million dollar wiki i will use it to effectively promote my vlog.

  21. Does John ever publish the number of entries he gets for big competitions like this?

    It’d be interesting to see what sort of odds you had of winning for your one entry. He’s probably way too evil to do that though? :twisted:

  22. This will dilute the quality of content on the Million Dollar Wiki even more.

    • I do not see how this will ‘dilute the quality’, unless you think people like throwing away $100.

      Moreover, I do not think the goal of the Million Dollar Wiki is quality content. :evil:

  23. wow talk about more pages at million dollar wiki. that guy is soooo gonna be rich. :twisted:

  24. This million dollar wiki kid is quickly becoming another internet hero for all of us bloggers to love/hate pretty quick. Bravo. He gets pages, JC gets traffic. I like it. :mrgreen:

  25. Please don’t jump on me - but I’m little unsure why a MillionDollarWiki page is a good investment. I’d like to buy one - but what’s the difference between that and just setting up similar pages on free wiki sites?

    I want to root this kid all the way to a million dollars, but wonder how valuable those pages are if this thing levels off at 500 pages.

  26. At the of the day: good for him, not good for most of the people who buy a page.

  27. Anyone else getting tired of the 20-30 comments saying “John you are so evil”, “thats evil”?

    John, seriously you have to put an end to this.

    • Put an end to being evil?

    • Yeah, they’re right up there with the “nice post” , “great post!”, and “Thanks for the post” comments. If it looks like spam and smells like spam, it probably is spam.

      However, it doesn’t appear that John minds much. I could be wrong but there are enough of them on each and every thread that I’m willing to bet he just doesn’t care.

  28. Don’t you guys get it? This is JC’s secret website. A nobody making $$$.

  29. man. I just bought a page before I read this. Can I demand a refund and then repurchase? :mrgreen:

    • While you could ask for a refund and then repurchase, the easier way would be to Email them and tell them ask them to apply the coupon code. They’ll refund $10 to you and you’ll get your entry.

  30. LOL john,u look evil and have u planned for this by the time the review was done?

  31. Another great contest idea. Wonder how much traffic a link will really bring my site?

  32. Does the contest covers Mexico users too?

  33. Hey John keep updating this and I want to see how many people enter the contest, if chances are slim I may not, but if less people enter, I may.

  34. John - It seems that you are always getting together with others to run these contests. Do you approach them or vice versa?

  35. Ugh, I really dislike the Million Dollar Wiki, kind of saddned to see you team up with him. Just my opinion.

  36. iBT

    haha,,looks like john is did it again…
    I feel evil so I got my copy cat site coming up soon. I will blog about it when my site is up & running..
