  • Steven · 2 years ago
    It is in some ways, but its a method that has been done tho
  • Becky @ Preblogging.com · 2 years ago
    The best money on I've spent on AdWords ;) More interesting ones and other people tomorrow !
  • Joyce Babu · 2 years ago
    Did you get any visits from those ads? I remember someone putting an ad like this in DigitalPoint. He later lamented that a large number of people clicked on the ad and he lost a lot of money :).

    The adword "John Cow" likely only costs a penny or so right now. That will change as this site continues to grow.
  • Joyce Babu · 2 years ago
    It is not the keyword that costs. It is putting your ads in a high traffic site like this, that leads to the increased rate.
  • mahdi yusuf · 2 years ago
    how much money did it cost?
  • Steven · 2 years ago
    You set your own rates with adwords
  • Steven · 2 years ago
    LOL first it was John Chow's name used in adwords ads. It isn't surprising and should have been expected that the Cow would follow the same path, whether you wanted to happen or not

    I keep getting a Operation Abort when I first come to your site.
  • Steven · 2 years ago
    Are you using IE6? That happens when I use it to check this site at work.
  • mahdi yusuf · 2 years ago
    use firefox!! :D
  • Steven · 2 years ago
    I do when I am at home. But at work, I have no choice, they only use IE6 and all installation is disabled by admin. It doesn't matter, I gave my notice so I won't be there for long anyway
  • Joyce Babu · 2 years ago
    Use Opera. The fastest browser in the world.
  • SimplyBananas · 2 years ago

  • Becky @ PreBlogging · 2 years ago
    Hi jeba, I added the link to your source now, i found it via this search term.

    The AdWords thing was a bit of fun while it lasted. I tried to have an image ad but that didn't seem to come through.
  • Cubofild · 2 years ago
    I like all ads, people doing good stuff!
  • Angel · 2 years ago
    Etienne is my new hero.
  • Hoosierdaddy812 · 2 years ago
    I don't like ads too much but maybe its a good thing not so many people, but then again that means you don't make as much money either. It's kind of a double edged sword
  • Hugo Santos · 2 years ago
    Lol that was pretty cool!
