This is for real. I know someone who has purchased pixels. What a brilliant idea.

[Amethyst]

yeah ..But well there is so many copycats now.. Try search on googles and you can see tons of site like this seems that people likes the idea

[britmaveric]

Dunno- seems confusing way to find websites.

[Khutan]

Its one of those self-generating schemes - it lives on its own publicity

[terdsak_12]

A few Thai sites are on there if you look carefully.

Course revenues are brought on by clicks, so guess that will perk someone's interest.

Yeah i found Sticky rice website LOL

[OxfordWill]

Not a scam..I have a few sites advertised there.

[Amethyst]

Wow what was the traffic like?? How many uniqe visitor per day ???

[britmaveric]

Luck/curiosity- come on, its a gimmick for the bored!

[OxfordWill]

The overwhelming success of his idea is thanks to the fact a local paper picked up the story, enjoying the student debt angle, and then he paid for a press release about a week later which got spotted by the BBC and from there it went global..sky news, CNN, ABC...etc..

Advertisers jump on that kind of exposure.

uniques: My adverts are all 100 pixel blocks (the smallest) and I have had a high of 900 in one day referred and an average now of about 300. It goes down as I was one of the first on the grid and now of course it is getting quite busy.

The homepage itself now gets 60-100 k uniques a day.

[britmaveric]

Faire play to him - if one can make dosh out of it than he's doing alright.

[Amethyst]

Lucky Alex Tew

[OxfordWill]

Power of the internet...one simple idea. Just wish I could have one.

[Amethyst]

60% Says Its not a scam and 30% Says not Sure,

Simple idea turns to big $$$ WOW!!!

[BambinA]

i like the idea of this guy.. fabulous

(better than somebody sell and on Mars)

I vote " Not a scam "

Bamillon Satangs

[opothai]

it can not be a scam, as he only live about 7 miles from where i live and round these parts you can trust everyone

fair play to the lad, good idea and so young

[Amethyst]

Nowadays lots of people are just looking for easy money... Well i cam across a website call Unemployed Loser, This guy calls himself a loser and he have created a website asking for donation .. .Well is it weird asking for donation and admit it to the internet that you yourself is an unemployed loser .. now thats funny ....

[RDN]

Not a scam..I have a few sites advertised there.

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

I think I spotted one of yours - 6 down, 12 across.

[OxfordWill]

Now would I really let myself get away with such a bad spelling mistake? For shame RDN!

[Butterfly]

Most stupid idea ever. But never underestimate the stupidity of a population to fall for it. People will swallow anything if it's hyped properly

I have a better idea. I will sell bits instead of megabytes on my servers

Yeah I can make 1 billion with that superb idea

Do people actually understand what it's a pixel and what they are buying ? I guess not

TOTAL SCAM

[OxfordWill]

It's made me alot of money as an advertiser. I'm one of the tiny fish who chose to advertise there, I imagine the big boys have made a certain killing.

It doesn't matter WHAT you buy, if you get the whole world looking at 'it'.

[RDN]

Now would I really let myself get away with such a bad spelling mistake?  For shame RDN!

I've been reading Thaivisa too long - didn't even notice it! Of course, it might've been deliberate - saved them (15 pixels x 10 = ) $150!

[OxfordWill]

Hah too true, that is probably exactly why it was done.
