I purchase your product and have since played around with other themes. But I disagree with John Chow on the review he gave of your product. I believe that your product is not the get rich quick scheme he calls it, but an opportunity for a newbie to get started easily, and quickly.

We all know the growing pains of blogging. Your system allowed me to save some time and get started with Wordpress. This in turn allowed me to focus on other aspects of the business. I liked your product and I will be putting my affiliate 125×125 ad on my sponsor link as soon as I get the Worpress 2.5 under control. The new look is a bit difficult to change widgets and sidebars.

John Chow is getting to big for his own good.

Good Luck, Alvin.

Ps I loved my trip to Thailand, seems you enjoyed it too.

Okay, I actually read the whole review, and I can say this is a lousy review, seriously I could just write a better and jaw-dropping review for you FREE Alvin. He charge $400 because of his REPUTATION and TRAFFIC FLOW, but he did not include well written review for you in his $400, Alvin. I feel John should state what that $400 includes…so that people will know is it worth the $400 review…
Is just like you see ads on tv it say this and that but put small wording saying those are sold separately. And when you brought it then you realize it was sold separately. I hope you know what I mean.
Alvin seriously if you did not create Atomic Blogging, I think I won’t reach what I am now, I just want to say this is a product that anyone who are serious in blogging to get it.

Well I cannot control what others have to say.. but I and John are great friends now.. he’s just a bit anti towards selling ebooks that’s it

As John’s main income comes from referrals of selling networks and programs and advertisements

I got to be frank I was pretty upset back then, but I make use of whatever I had and decided to generate a report out of my $400 investment.

Well unknowingly, the report was downloaded over 1,000+ times so it’s a pretty good investment in the end to turn a bad thing into a good thing

But all is good, John knows what I was doing was just a marketing tactic move and we still do chat online

You see, there is a term which I always feel is a powerful term in internet marketing and that is - “Negative Publicity Is Good Publicity”
Just like Den Kennedy once said this which I agree, “If you aren’t offending someone, you’re not marketing hard enough.”
May be this is a marketing tactic John implement it to get everyone talking about Atomic Blogging and giving traffic to you, but still I disagree the review…

Alvin,

Please redo the “John Chow Review Exercise” including ebook feedback over at my site for FREE. (as blog of the weekend).

Just write the review yourself and allow me to put my affiliate link in it to atomic blogging.

6 months later I will then write a FREE review for your Atomic Blogging again, and ask you to do the ebook exercise again.

Are you in for this?

I am surprised ReviewMe allowed John to put his affiliate link in stead of your URL.
I am also surprised John didn’t cloak the link, as he does claim that cloaking affiliates gets a better click through… What we call evil John Chow

I see 2 plusses in spending those 400$: you found 2 problems: 1 to monetize and 1 to improve:

Problem 1 is:
-how to pick a Reviewer that’s going to make you sales
As you noticed: all the stats ReviewMe give about John are useless. What advertisers really need to know is:
how many visitors / what kind of visitors.
Pagerank 6 is like saying that the new secretary you are hiring was an A student (and it doesn’t even tell you what topic she studied, let alone tells you anything about her filing skills…)

Problem 2 is:
-please improve your salespage Alvin (the better your sales page, the better for us being your affiliate.)

Now about John (whom I admire for his evilness) : Maybe a lot of what you(Alvin) say can be found in John’s blog, but then: I don’t have the time to start reading all his ramblings from A to Z, so there is a great argument in paying a price for “a book that points to all you need to blog better.”

John could also have added that you Alvin do answer people’s comments and emails without we having to send you free gifts. Please lah John: how much do you claim you earn and you still need free gifts from people that are trying to make a living out of blogging???

John did say who the target buyers are for Atomic Blogging But he shouldn’t be so negative about it. A person can easily pick up how to install a WordPress blog and absorb the rest of the useful info of Atomic Blogging. Good basics are the most important, which is the biggest reason why my blog isn’t monetized well and your blog is.

A suggestion:
-since people love free things… can we (your affiliates) have an affiliate link with a lifetime coockie to your free page, so when a sale occurs after people reading your free stuff, you and us have extra earnings?

Some ebook questions:
-why you wrote your findings in an ebook?
-how did you write the ebook? (meaning how did you get it as a pdf?)
-how did you design the fornt page of the ebook?

Yes Alvin, I do have a few tips on what to do to loose some weight. Believe me, if you are accustomed to eatin meat it would be difficult to stop.
Tips:
1) Cut down on your meat intake.
2) Eat lots of fruits, since the enzymes is still present.
3) drink lots of WATER.

Cheers,
Dulin
