The idea is to make Rs.1,000,000 by selling 1 million pixels worth of advertising space for Rs.100 for a block on the grid (10x10 pixels).

There are 10,000 blocks on the board each block measures 10x10 pixels costing Rs.100.00

This wasn’t my original idea.

Idea : The Million Dollar Homepage is a website conceived by Alex Tew, a 21-year-old student from Wiltshire, England to help raise money for his university education.

My original plan was for a Web Designing Service much more complicated website but I didn’t know how to go about setting it up and administering it. So I thought I would start with a pixel site and when it’s successful enough I will send myself on a web design project. I have a few more business ventures I want to get off the ground but need more knowledge and experience to be able to launch them.

need suggestion on this topic

First and only suggestion:

He asked for advice. He got advice.

Maybe he needs to be taught what's good and healthy and what isn't.

Maybe he is willing to learn.

Maybe I'm a dreamer....

I'll leave it be for a while at least.

Quoting from the man himself:

That's why it's sad to see all those pixel-copycat sites sending out badly-written press releases thinking that just sending out a press release will create interest. It won't! Forget copying my idea, no other individual will become rich from a Million Dollar Homepage copycat site. Do something different! And I do not mean a pixel-site-with-a-twist! Do something TOTALLY different! If you do something unique, totally unique, then you will stand out.

Not a unique idea, so it won't catch interest. That's why I don't see why people bother trying to copy it.

I've got an ad on the original site - it was a gamble but it paid off.
There is absolutely no way it will work again so give up now.

I am not greedy, I just want 1 million, not 20 million. ;)

He said he wants a million pixels. Ok, your typical screen is 1024 x 768 pixles .... how many square pixels is that if you give him a screenful? ok, that's 786432 sq px ... so it will have to scroll down some, that's all ;)

a nightmare came to me while I was reading this post . . .

of little mini sharon bits scampering on their itty bitty feet to oh, so many directions - - - mostly under forumers' PC desks. I hope they won't bite or worst get smashed by people's big shoed feet . . .:shock:

:?: :?: :?: I need Dr. Phil - I think I am losing it, too.

Alan. This is Australia. A pixel here is bigger than the great outdoors. It streaches from beyond the Black Stump all the way to the Never Never. You aint seen a pixel till you've seen mine!
