John Chow dot Com - who is this dot com mogul?

I started my personal finance and investing blog almost a month ago. My intention was to write about what I know - saving and investing all the way to a million dollars. As you can see, I have placed ads on my site in the hope that I'll make a little money while doing something I love (talking about investing).

Over the past few weeks, I have found so many wonderful personal finance and investing blogs, and have learned a great deal from these sites. I have noticed that some of the sites don't have ads. Some do, but say they're not in it for the money.

Regardless of your situation, as a blogger, you have the option of monetizing your site. For the time that you spend writing for your site, there is nothing wrong with getting paid for it.

There are quite a few successful blogs that discuss monetizing your blog. I have found no one more successful at this very thing than John Chow at John Chow dot com. A self-professed "dot com mogul," John's blog is about helping his fellow blogger make money online. I have found the site to be very informative, but there's something more to it. It's inspirational. If you are a blogger and want to monetize your site, there is nothing more inspiring than reading a post like this.

With a Google Pagerank of 6, who are any of us to argue? Even the very concept of enticing fellow bloggers to review his site, as I am doing, is pure genius. Each link to John Chow dot Com is only increasing the chances that his PR will climb.

I am very new at this game, and have really enjoyed persusing John's site. And his success has inspired me to keep at it.

If you're visiting from John's site, welcome! And please do come back. Cheers.
