The Million Dollar homepage
September 21, 2005 | Links
A rather enterprising uk student has created a website to help him pay his student fees - the Million Dollar Homepage
The idea is simple. The homepage constists of an image that has a million pixels. You can buy the pixels for a dollar each and they are sold in blocks of 100. You can then colour and link your block(s) of pixels to any website you like.
Maybe I could use this to advertise Binary Sun..? If you’re interested I would suggest getting in there before the Golden Palace Casino (who buy all sort of rubbish off ebay) come along and buy all the remaining space.

Looks like the Golden Palace got in there and bought their space. They got much less than I expected as well.

We have plenty of space at www.adsquares.co.uk
We started trading just a few days ago and have a few sponsors already.
For only £5 (falling to £4 on multiple purchases) you can secure a 400 pixel square. We are currently getting 1000’s of hits per day and are advertised on the millionpennyhomepage.

I’ve been thinking about doing a follow up post with all the ’spin offs’. I must say I don’t think any pf them will do anywhere near as well as the original. IMO The only one with a chance is the million penny homepage - and that’s only because it is considerably cheaper than any of the others. Good luck with yours though - I guess we’ll see how well it does soon enough

We’ve launched a new site today which although inspired by TMDH isn’t a straight copy like most :

It gives advertisers the chance to win the prime 160,000 pixels on the homepage every time it’s loaded.

Since I’m getting so many of these requests now I have decided that if anyone wants to add a comment linking to their millionWhatever site they should pay me $10. I don’t see why you should make money out of me when I make nothing, and this site has a decent page rank so $10 should be well worth it. If you’re interested then comment and I will give you my paypal details - upon payment I will edit your comment to link to your site.

Just a quick update - the offer for advertising is closed now. No more comments advertising milliondollar homepage type sites will be allowed through.
