Million Dollar Homepage (http://www.milliondollarhomepage.com)
The idea is simple: to try and make $1m (US) by selling 1,000,000 pixels for $1 each. Hence, 'The Million Dollar Homepage". The main motivation for doing this is to pay for my degree studies, because I don't like the idea of graduating with a huge student debt. I know people who are paying off student loans 15-20 years after they graduated. Not a nice thought!
This kid is a marketing genious, in my opinion. He had an extremely unique idea which is now making him hundreds of thousands of dollars. At the moment, he has sold 305,700 pixels at $1. While $305,700 may not be his total profit, it's still in the $xxx,xxx range :eek2:.

There are a bunch of sites that basically spawned off his idea. SellPixels.com (http://sellpixels.com/) is cashing in on the hype.

Check this (http://www.rentpixelads.com/) out. Someone bought a bunch of pixel ad space and is now renting the space. :lol:

It's amazing how many people have tried to copy him.

1$ per pixels and minimum 100 pixels. I not think companies like 2CO buy his pixels, he only use marketing tricks.

So do you think he's putting up well known companies just to give the impression that he's doing well?
