Help another Canadian out? Please include me in this contest John. I miss the west coast so much...

Hello John, i realy need this 24" LCD. Can you send one for me?

:shock: Me! Me!

Not a bad idea, looks like they made $39,000 so far, pretty good...
390 people bought pages!?! Hopefully it will be a big success.

the linkback didnt show up for the post I made awhile back so here is the link for my entry:

I am in. :shock: Gotta win this time. :!:

Bought the word hosting in wiki wish me luck :D

entered, wish me luck

I hope to win the monitor too.. book s/b defanitely resourceful.

One thing I like about MDW is growing number of users. IF 300 pages are sold, close to 300 people visiting the site for sure and possibly lot more. Once it reaches to 1000 pages, It is a decent site of 1000 pages.

What... no free entry? What about your loyal readers? :D

I could definitely use a screen like that. I'm going to have to get myself entered.

I am in. Hope I win this time. Thanks

I've bought a copy of the book (still working my way through it) and have enough monitors to embarrass the NASA control room so I'll be giving this one a miss.

I did just want to give a shout out about the Million Dollar Wiki though. In my first week I've seen some very good referral results from my page. Well worth the $90 IMHO.

Hey John, great post. Amazing prizes. I just entered myself into the contest.

John you are freaking evil, you make money off a review see how much money they made off your review and you come up with a scheme to get you a cut:twisted:

Argh! Ever an early adopter, I bought a page at Million Dollar Wiki, "Make Money Blogging", half an hour after you posted about it. I don't mind missing the $10 coupon, but I've been entering to win the signed "Four Hour Workweek" since the beginning, and it sure would be nice to have the 5 entries. You're :twisted:.

If you read the rest of the comments I'm willing to bet you can get 10 bucks back.

How Genious.

Not only does creating the buzz get JC traffic, but he is kick starting an idea that will probably make internet history and John Chow will definately be mentioned it the story.

hope i win this time lol jk

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..

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

Why? Because you didn't think of it first? :wink:

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

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.

Does the contest covers Mexico users too?

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

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

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.

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

I might have to agree with you on that but I wonder, JC had said that he will spend 86 bucks on advertising the site. If it is him behind the MDW then how did he pay for the $400 review on JohnChow.com? If it is JC, then the rules were broken!

HE's not behind it, MDW has been online for a couple months already.

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.

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

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.

I have a page on the MDW that will soon show how much everyone else on the site is making besides the creator. It will be featured on www.milliondollarwiki.com/Money in a short time.

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:

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

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:

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:

The last monitor giveaway I did had 300 entires.

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.

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

John,

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