As I always aim to surpass the best of the best I wondered for a while how John Chow managed to gain as much popularity on the Net. What’s the secret of his success?

Well, now I finally found out! Just read this two words slowly and at least three times: John Chow, John Chow, John Chow. Did you get the idea?

Right! It’s the name stupid! It’s about his name! How could you ever succeed with a name like Tadeusz Szewczyk? John Chow is just one syllable for the first name and one for the family name. They sound just perfect, strong, somehow American but still exotic nonetheless.

Somewhat of a mix of John Wayne and Jackie Chan: John Chow. His name sounds already like that of a star, so becoming one is just a matter of time.

So what now? Will I stop here at admiring my competitor? No!

I will proceed to outsmart John Chow by a better name and a better motto! As I already asked you to call me Tad I will elaborate on that a little. You know, my name Szewczyk only looks unpronounceable. In fact it is pronounced like two well known English words: Chef and check!

As I know what’s cooking in the SEO kitchen I do not need to check it: So Tad Chef is born!

Isn’t Tad Chef much better than John Chow? Maybe not, but now listen to my motto: Have fun making money online! Do you get it now?

You are still not convinced? So I give you 7 more reasons why John Chow will fail in the cat fight John Chow vs Tad Chef:

  1. John Chow has been thrown out of Google
  2. John Chow’s site is so full of ads, you barely see any content
  3. He is not as funny as I am
  4. He has no sombrero like I have
  5. He drives ridiculous gas guzzling sportscars you can’t even take along your kids or friends with and I own only a bike (a beach cruiser)
  6. Sorry, but he does not even look good, but maybe I can’t judge that as a heterosexual male
  7. He is a nobody in Iran and I am in the top 10 for “love” in Google.com in Farsi (Persian)

I am convinced that in 12 months from now Tad Chef will be more successful than John Chow! Watch me kicking John Chow’s butt! SEO 2.0 will prevail!

    Well, I acknowledge that he needs some assistance so that he does not have to give up before the fight…

    John Chow is lame. I stopped reading his site a long time ago. The new design is soooo lame, jesus, somebody teach the designer a lesson or two about clutterness.

    sure the new design might let him make more money, but i really hate the ads – i know this is a “make money online blog”, too many ads and make you dizzied.

    I must remind that I’d already said more than 3 week before, that John Chow is lightweight as compared to you ;) (sorry all, that post is in Polish).
    I’ll root for you :)

    I agree “He is not as funny as You are” :). Tad Chef is good one – may I put Your CV on my cooking site? :) “He is nobody in Iran” – that’s really makes me laught.

    I’m just using adblocker for John’s site. All is manageable :). Without it the site is really crowded.
    Good luck Tad Chef!!! :)

    Can someone please explain to me why Quantcast.com lists John Chow’s monthly traffic at a pathetic 4800 visitors? WTF? I think I smell bullsh*t. There’s no way he’s hitting the number$ he claims to hit.

  • A "name" is a real name or nick name, not a keyword! SEO Company is wrong. John Doe of Google is OK.
  • For the "website" URL: No deep links allowed unless it's your "about" page.
  • No extra signature allowed, one "website" link is enough.
  • No bot-like "Thank you" comments with no context or added value to the post.
