Embarrassment For The New Million Euro Wiki Owners
By Matt Jones on Oct 11, 2007 in Creative Blogging
Judging from what John Cow showed us of the new Million Euro Wiki owners I believed they would have a positive effect on MEW making buying a page an even better investment than before. After all they have claimed to be dedicated to the marketing of MEW and they sound pretty genuine when they talk about “building user management tools”.
We knew John Cow could stomach it, after all he does have 2 stomachs but if I made the mistake the new MEW owners have I’m not sure what I would do. Draw whatever conclusions you like from this.
This is a screen shot from the MEW blog:
You did read that right. They signed off as their archrival the Million Dollar Wiki!
You could say its just 1 word out of place and it happens to be the worst possible word, which I am willing to agree with… just.
I want this post to act as a hoof up the ass to wake them up. The MEW brand should be so strong people that the decision is not “shall I buy on the MDW or the MEW?”, but “Which page should I get on the MEW using the coupon code BloggingFingers?”.
It is a minor slip up and I’m sure they will bounce back.
Wake up guys!

[…] point it’s more fun to be on the sidelines watching this unfold (along with John Lampard, Matt Jones and Angel ). The original MDW has an excellent, passionate marketer behind it and it should be a […]
John Chow made the same mistake the other day! He announced 5 people won “Million Dollar Wiki pages” when actually they won Million Euro Wiki pages.
Euro is just a cheap ripoff and no one can even get the name straight to diffrentiate it from the original, not even the owners!
