Looks like John Chow got his ranking back

[TrentBrownrigg]

JohnChow.com is back in the top 10 for Make Money Online after a couple years of being nowhere to be found since he got slapped hard for bribing his way to the top.

Personally I was hoping he would never make it back considering his blog doesn't actually teach a damn thing, yet all the newbies seem to think he is the man to follow. Him being back at the top of the rankings will just add to that.

Oh well, I guess it doesn't hurt me any.

Ah, so there's hope for me yet!

If that shyster can claw his way back after Google show'd him good, then maybe we'll start seeing the others coming out of the woodwork like Starak and co...

I would prefer him to be on top, it helps reduce competition.

If someone reads Griz's blog they're likely to learn something useful.

Very good point!

At least if people "learn" from Chow they won't ever be able to compete with us.

I just had to know how he got his ranking back, so I went over and read his blog post about it. Sneaky bugger managed to get to talk direct with Matt Cutts and he told Chow what he needed to do to get his blog back in the index. A couple days later there it was.

Now that made me pretty angry, because I have de-indexed domains that are lot more legit than his (aka no paid links) and are free of any Google bashing, yet I have to wait for someone to do a re-inclusion inspection and its up to them if I get it back or not. They won't tell me what's keeping it out of the index, so how can I know what to do to make it right of someone there thinks its still breaking their quality guidelines?

Chow had it handed to him on a plate and I can't think of anyone less deserving of it than him!

Never understood why Seinfeld was so popular. Every other actor in that show was funnier than him... even the straight ones... in fact John Chow is funnier and he's about as funny as dysentery...

It's moves like this that make me want to use Bing and hope it get's traction. That and how small a % they pay us for adsense. So everyone... use Bing!
