John Chow gets SEO advice from The 30 Day Man
I was just reading Adam's blog, The 30 Day Man, and he was talking about how if you type in John Chow, you will actually get John Cow's blog in the number one spot on google. So, why is it that a site as popular as John Chow, who is linked to, blogged about, and just all over the place, not in the number one spot on google for his own name. Interesting, but, thats life I guess.



Hey Serge,
Just found you on Technorati in a blog reaction to my post. Thanks for reading. Interesting you linked John Chow here to Caroline Middlebrook ... ?
Take it easy.

Well Google are pissed off with him basically, so they did this on purpose.

Yeah, John Chow actually did too good of a job at SEO that Google had to manually penalize him. Which is part of the reason he's so famous!

lol...the real reason is that when google penalises a site for selling links they take the main keyword and make them rank bad for that...
same with widgetbucks.com for the keyword widget bucks...many sites are like this...they also lose pr as well...john chow used to be pr 6 now is pr 4...all other keywords are fine with this google penalty...
its common with selling links for high profit online for this ban...
