I will start with the picture below. This picture is from Compete.com comparing three popular blogs of today JohnChow.com, JohnCow.com, and ShoeMoney.com.

Do you see anything odd?

Just in plain first glance you would be able to tell probably, all three sites hit the Traffic Ramp on June, 2007.

Is it a coincidence?

I don’t think so. John Chow on his blog admits the fact that he abused social networking sites like Digg.com to hit the traffic ramp in June until he got banned. On the contrary John Cow and Shoe Money claims themselves as reputed maketting professionals. All of them tries to teach people how to make money online. I think they could talk more on how to Digg Goldmine on the Internet!
