Y'alright?

Why John Chow should be president!

Do your eyes deceive you? Oh no they don’t my friends. Today in school I was chatting to a mate about the elections currently going on in America right now. Admittedly I know little about American politics, and my mind began wandering.

Who’d be a good president?

And with online marketing a big part of my thinking right now, I made a mental ‘lol’ when my first thought was that John Chow‘d do a better job of this thing. Shoemoney crossed my mind too, but since I read Chow’s blog more often, he’d get my vote. When I was reading his blog later today I stumbled across some great back-up evidence, so here you go. (don’t take this too seriously by the way!)

Why John Chow would make a great US presidential candidate.

John Chow’s a clever money maker

John Chow took his personal blog from $0 per month in September 2006 to over $27,000 in November 2007. Now imagine the wonders this man could work when given the huge budget the American government could supply. A few banner ads on the White house perhaps? Or door handles that are actually touch screen computer monitors displaying some pay per click ads? ReviewMe reviews in the middle of government messages?

Oh yes, John Chow could monetise that system.

John Chow looks after the people before he looks after himself

That’s right folks, John Chow is a giver. Check the video in this post. He’s at a convention, and at about 50 seconds in, he comes across a table giving away free 2gb ram parts. What does he do? He grabs one for everyone around him who can’t reach, and gets one for himself last. A regular Robin Hood. You know that if this man was in government he’d look after his public before thinking about accepting any brown envelopes, or other shady “favours” (You’re all thinking Bill Clinton here I hope!).

John Chow isn’t afraid to get his hands dirty
That’s right my good readers. John Chow can be just like the rest of us. We go to work and slave away and wonder howcome those fatcats at the top get to take it easy and rake in the cash. Well oh no, not our John boy. Just look at the proof.

What’s that image of? That’s the Chow himself, about to get down and dirty to build a PC. And of course, not only is he slaving away building, he’s doing it all for his fellow man. This was for a charity competition. Now if you’re not convinced that the Chowski is a hero, well I don’t know what to make of you.

John Chow knows how to have (good clean) fun.

You know how it is with Politicians. They’re either dry old folk who don’t know how to have fun, or wasters taking bribes and spending them on debauchery. The drugs, the booze, the women, the women who are actually men, you know the score. Well our Chow-a-tron knows how to have fun, but most importantly, he’s a man who knows moderation. Here he is, generously bringing out the vodka for his party. Reports stated that the party ended without a hitch, and the general feedback was that it was a jolly good shindig.

The ladies can’t resist John Chow

Oh yes, the money, the brains, the looks, is there any surprise that John Chow’s fighting ‘em off?


Look how happy she is just to be touching the great man. But of course, John Chow is a moral family man who’d never betray his partner. You can sleep easy knowing this guy’s in charge..

The smart people already love John Chow

The Chowster currently has over 14,000 subscribers on his blog. Now let’s think about who these subscribers are. They’re the internet marketers, the smart guys making a living from home. You know they can’t be wrong.
Do you really want to look like a fool? Do you want people talking and laughing about you behind your back? Of course not. But that’s what’ll happen until you join the Chow crew and start living it up baby.

John Chow isn’t this guy

That’s right, Georgey Bush. He’s not the most learned man, and that’s been well documented. But someone tell me why Mr. Bush is so repulsed by the American flag? Any truly patriotic man is proud to hold a miniature plastic flag of his home country. So why is Georgeybabes looking so disgusted in this picture? All I know is, John Chow wouldn’t do that, oh no.

I think you guys have enough evidence to decide for yourselves who you’d really want running the United States of America. I guess we can only hope that sometime soon we’ll see the headline of John Chow dot Com read – “The miscellaneous ramblings of a US president”…

Yeah ,john chow makes 27k with his blog but now it has gone waay dowhill.

All you will probably see are generic non-specific post that wouldn’t help at all an IM newbie and you see so many post about food and his social life that it’s freaking annoying.

Shoemoney is a freaking genius and any decent black hatters make as much as Chow.

That’s just my whining about the money making part.

Actually, having seen “many” very good marketers try hard with blackhat methods, it’s clear to see that it’s not as successful as those “decent” guys would have you believe. Blackhat is not easy money in any way, and there aren’t that many people earning 27k a month from it..

Blackhat might seem like a cool way to make money, but I know for sure that most people never make much money with it…

That’s why im saying decent. Im not talking about the hundreds of newbie sploggers that are out there but basically the one that strive and perfect themselves in affiliate marketing and other domains.

BH will never make 27k per month if you just do it as a test and never fine tune your methods. It will be just as much work as any WH business except it will be automated once you have worked enough to set it up.

I guess im pretty much sick of people praising Chow when all he freaking does is posting pictures of his food and writing reviews. All the real content is gone now. So many blogs are now better then his crappy pics galore .

Any people with a blog that makes 20k a month should at least give something valuable to its readers.

This made me laugh! I actually Dugg this post. No offense to John Chow but even Jessica Simpson would be a better president candidate than the Bush!
