One person I’d like to meet at the next BlogWorld Exp (Sept. 19-21, 2008) in Las Vegas is John Chow. Well known for his crazy videos, explosive income growth and personality, he has one of the most successful blogs on the internet and he shares his secrets to success. He actually keeps a log of his monthly income growth and what programs he used to generate that income.
John is best known for showing the power of blogging when he used his blog as an income case study. He took thejohnchow.com from $350 per month to a over $27,000 per month in just one year.
