Woo hoo!!! My new book just hit #1 on the New York Times Best Sellers list!! Thanks to everyone who pre-ordered the book! This couldn’t have happened without you! Here’s a copy of the press release that my publisher just sent out on the news wire.
NEW YORK, New York. (April 1, 2010) – Morgan James Publishing, is pleased to announce that Make Money Online: Roadmap of a Dot Com Mogul by John Chow and Michael Kwan, has hit number 1 on the New York Times Best Sellers list. What’s even more amazing about this accomplishment is that the book isn’t even out yet. This is the first time in NYT history that any book has made the Best Sellers list on pre-orders alone.
“I can’t believe it! I knew I had a loyal readership but I didn’t expect them to show this much support. It’s amazing!” said John Chow from his home in West Vancouver. Michael Kwan fainted when he heard the news and wasn’t able to comment.
Make Money Online: Roadmap of a Dot Com Mogul doesn’t hit bookstores until May 1 but retailers have been swamped trying to keep up with the demand. Jeff Bezos, founder and CEO of Amazon.com said, “Never before have we seen this level of interest for such a niche product. Reaching one million pre-orders a full month ahead of release is quite the accomplishment. A well-deserved kudos goes out to John Chow and Michael Kwan.”
To help meet demand for Make Money Online: Roadmap of a Dot Com Mogul, Morgan James Publishing has added two extra shifts to their printing plants to make sure every book outlet has enough copies on opening day.

One of the most common complaint (or excuse) I hear from potential new bloggers is they don’t know how to install WordPress. Terms like FTP and CPanel are like a foreign language and setting up a database might as well be setting up the space shuttle for a launch. Because of the technology barrier, many would-be bloggers never start their blogs...
