***UPDATE: I found this article from a few years ago, comparing John Chow to John Cow. Check it out!***

I hereby declare this Spoof Week. The theme is John Chow, one of the first Big Affiliate Marketing bloggers we featured on the BAMroll. He is an icon in the industry, a gold standard, the Spiderman of the World Wide Web, a veritable hero of professional internet marketers.

The two additions to the BAMroll this week are here because of their associations with these two precious key words– John and Chow. One was inspired by the original, and the other increased his page rank because of him.

  • John Cow, a blog written by Jason Katzenback, has been milking the internet since 2007.  Inspired by a professional internet marketer of his own age–and no doubt, the infamous John Chow–Jason began to do the same. Now he blogs about it, and you can benefit from his experience.
  • Not John Chow is John (not Chow but) Haley. Like John Chow’s blog, this one is written by an internet-based money maker. He just lost his job, so his strategy will become even sharper in his first few months of unemployment.  These ‘miscellaneous ramblings of an average guy’ are distinctly American.

To all: download an OPML file on the BAMroll page– the link is at the top.

To John Cow, the official Not John Chow, and any other BAMrollers who are or aren’t John Chow: we have badges for you!
