The John Chow Effect And How It Was All Worth It
Remember how I spent $125 on a John Chow review from Reviewme.com back in February? Well, after the review was published, I started to question whether it was a wise investment or not. I felt as though my blog wasn’t ready for the influx of visitors that the review provided.
Well it seems as though the review was much more valuable than I had anticpated! The most impressive thing is that even though my posting frequency has taken a dive recently the subscribers tally has remained steady since the post-Chow peak, even increasing in recent weeks. I was expecting subscribers to drop off like flies after February!
I think this goes to show that paid reviews can be effective if you even have a little bit of interesting content, especially if you buy a review off a blog with a readership as devoted as John’s.

Since then, he made a dedicated effort provide his readers with quality content and according to a recent post, it was all worth it. […]
