yeah – John’s been doing that at PB for months now and he’s caused a lot of interest among my readers – every day someone emails me about it! :-)
Thord Daniel Hedengren says
Another evidence that clever ads work. Thanks for stopping by, Darren!
amber says
this is great adsense ad.Even an adsense guru will be tempted to click it
Jessica Doyle says
John Chow resides in Vancouver I do believe. Great ad!
Jeremy Wright says
… is it bad that I tried to click on the image above? ;-)
David Krug says
Jeremy,
No because I tried to do the exact same thing earlier.
Thord Daniel Hedengren says
I knew I should’ve linked the image to my blog!
Jim Kukral says
Yeah, this is a good idea, very clever. Kudos to Jon for the idea.
Fabio Moretti says
Great idea ! This ads shows all John’s marketing capabilities

He’s been doing that for a while. There are easier and cheaper ways to Instant Message people! I guess as a reader, it immediately stuck out for me the first time I saw it .. because it’s no longer a random ad anywhere on the planet, and (no-offense) worries about dubious clicking in India or other countries racking up the Adword charge account .. you pretty much get exactly what you are looking for with these type of ads – your target audience.
Yes .. it was brilliant what John Chow did/does.
