Don’t worry Steven. I have you in the top 10.

Great idea for link bait! The DoFollow is also greatly appreciated - I wish more bloggers would do that - my blog has been that way for a couple years now.

Great idea and good luck! Fingers crossed…

gsv13,

Actually that calculation is wrong. There will be ten winners that will get the banner rotation here on eMonetized. There will also be four other winners who will each get their banner shown on John Chow for one day.

Hope the contest goes well! (It seems to be! I’m off to browse the site at least… xD )

Click Input,

Don’t forget that leaving a trackback will still get you five extra entries in the John Chow Banner Contest.

Sorry I don’t have the threaded comments plugin on eMonetized yet. I tried it once but it messed up the theme. I’ll get it added soon.

Count me in

Tim you can’t do this.. I thought of this before you..

Hey boy Tim you are too good man.. I mean this is quite creative.. Hats off to your creativity. This is really a classic example of using John Chow as a linkbait to attract traffic to your site. By the way please add me to the contest.. and hopefully if I win I would also have an opportunity to get on top of John Chow (dot com).. what did you think?

This is a fantastic idea for a competition, wouldn’t mind getting a free ad spot on JohnChow.com.

I think this is a really creative idea that not only gets you more traffic, but more traffic to the people who win the contest as well. Good job! =]

This is such a brilliant idea. Good luck!

Using Advertising to Market Others While Marketing Yourself…

Well hells bells I almost wish I had a money making blog.

[...] I have my personal opinions of both Mr. Chow and Mr Schroeder and without getting too deep into them here, I regularly check in with emonetized for some of the best technical guidance and useful info on making my blog a better blog.  As for Mr. Chow…well, he’s no longer in the google reader and for now I’ll leave it at that (but I will offer a hint - it has to do with his no-follow tag approach, see this post on Untwisted Vortex!).
