The Million Dollar Homepage
Filed in: Make Money Online — September 22nd, 2005Can you earn money (a lot of money) from a BLANK homepage? The Million Dollar Homepage is selling 1,000,000 pixels of homepage space, each pixel for $1.
It is selling at a minimum 10 pixel2 block (USD100). Your advertisement will be hosted for 5 years (until 26th August 2010). The advertisement fund will help to pay the author, Alex Tew’s college fee. Read his blog for the progress of the pixel selling.
[ via Problogger ]
Thought: What a good idea! Maybe I also open a space and start selling the pixels? 
No more copycats: I found that we have enough million-dollar-homepage like websites. So, this post is closed for comment. Good luck!

September 22nd, 2005 at 7:43 pm

Believe it or not, I actually thought about this not too long ago. However, I thought that it would’ve been absurd to just do 1 homepage and sell the space just for ads. 0.0
This fellow definetely proved me wrong. LoL!

Danny, you thought of it but never put your idea into action. You lost a change to be millionaire.
September 22nd, 2005 at 11:46 pm
Angmo is really……. sigh…. dono how to say…… miracle lah….!
Good try and creative. I respect that sincerely.
September 23rd, 2005 at 8:39 am
Why? Why? I never think of this….. hheheeheheee
September 23rd, 2005 at 11:51 am
That’s a brilliant idea. I actually saw it sometime ago. Anyway, I think the programming shouldn’t be very difficult…
September 23rd, 2005 at 2:27 pm
When I first saw it, there were only a few ads. Didn’t know it grew so fast.
Wondering will all the pixels been filled?
September 23rd, 2005 at 3:48 pm
it’s a very good idea. but 1 is enough, if you follow his path, it’s not fresh to people anymore…and you won’t win……
September 23rd, 2005 at 5:49 pm
brilliant idea.
September 24th, 2005 at 6:01 am
Wow. Tons of others out there too! Good grief.
Million Dollar Homepage, II
Million Penny Homepage
Million Euro Homepage

September 24th, 2005 at 10:11 pm
The last two links are not working? Anyway here’s my attempt Homepage of The Year, it might fail miserably, but i guess no harm to try.
September 26th, 2005 at 12:56 am
How about this idea?
You pay for ads and have something extra.

powerstar: perhaps the contest or lucky draw should be for the visitors, to make them come back frequently.
September 26th, 2005 at 3:02 pm
yes. make something like extra ad-space. those who is th first 100th and 500th visiting the site will get credits. when they have collect 5 credits, ther ads will be at the extra ad-space. name it with something like supporters’ ads
September 27th, 2005 at 4:21 am
That’s actually not a bad idea. Maybe I can come up with something where the advertisers and the visitors both get something. Thanks for the idea Red.
September 27th, 2005 at 5:16 am
MillionPixelPage.com is free!!! You can upload your own logo or picture on the fly.
September 27th, 2005 at 8:33 am

I’m thinking of offering the visitors a chance to win money also. It’s been working well for me so far. I wanted to create the page depending on my personality. Giving away free ads or credits wouldn’t work because there are many site that are offering free pixels but have no traffic going to them. I have a good amount of traffic slowly coming and might stick to the idea of giving away money, or better yet more money. I’ll sleep over it and think about it. I think I know where I’m going with this. 99.

Pop Art inspired soup can mosaic. The idea is to finish with an exhibition with all the advertisers logos blown up onto a huge canvas. Links are permanent and the site forms part of a wider network of art related sites.

Listed by category, so you can actually find adverts you want - maybe advertisers will like this idea more? http://www.choicedirectory.co.uk

There is also this one I just found:
http://www.OneDollarPixels.com
October 2nd, 2005 at 1:02 pm
I found 4 new pixel sites, they are all using the same script. These give away the pixels for FREE, but you can buy the script
for less than you pay for one block of pixels on the other sites and set it up on your own website.
This is the main one here
PixelYourPage.com
Then a copy of that one is here
AlotMoreTraffic.com
The next two are for members of MySpace.com and Xanga.com, you must be a member of those sites to get pixels
PixelsForMySpace.com
PixelsForXanga.com
Looking for even more :), what a great idea!
October 3rd, 2005 at 12:26 pm
this one is the first i have seen that will post your pixel image after confirming your payment. I guess it is the New and Improved version. Wish politicians can come up with creative ways to erase the defecits.
any way here is the link:
http://www.millionusdollarhomepage.com
Why didn’t i think of it first?
October 4th, 2005 at 10:38 pm
Wow! Super sites! Yeah! Really wow! Great!
Alex’d got a great idea. But what are the others? Yuuuuh!

nice twist
October 6th, 2005 at 2:16 am
So is it really a scam, or is it legitimate? I had been told about this site and was thinking about advertising there. Please tell me if it’s actually a scam. Thank you!
October 6th, 2005 at 2:20 am
In my opinion, it is not worth to buy the pixels. There are too many copycat websites now (you can see in the comments here). What is the percentage the site visitor clicks on your pixel block? You probably need buy a lot pixel blocks to have something meaningful, thus attract visitors’ clicks.
October 6th, 2005 at 2:21 am
Hello!
About which site are you talking about?
Go to
http://www.millionpixelpage.com and get some free pixels!
October 6th, 2005 at 2:24 am
I was talking about milliondollarhomepage.com, which is supposed to be the original or something.
Also, why are some blocks smaller than others, when they’re all supposed to be the same size (10 x 10)?
Thanks LCF & John.

Hi,
I’ve found another million pixel site, this time it is UK based, selling the pixel blocks for £10. The best thing i can see about this site though is that the profits of the site go to charity!

I started today a site that is intended to raise some money for the poor kids in my country (Bulgaria). I think every dollar would make a difference to them. If there is anyone with good marketing capabilities out there who would be willing to help, just write to boyan@millionpixels4kids.com (I admit I don’t have enough marketing background).
