Check out The Million Dollar Homepage. It’s a site where a British college student is selling a million pixels (in 10×10 pixel squares) for $1 a pixel in an effort to pay for school / make money. Pretty clever idea if you ask me. 🙂

It looks like there could be a race between the U.K., Europe, and the U.S.:
Million Dollar Web Page (U.S.)
Million Euro Home Page
All we need now is one for Asia and Africa. I can see it now.
Cheap ripoffs, that’s all they are. Anything good on the Internet always gets copied and 99.9% of the time, the copy is crap. This is the case here. 🙂
Oh, and the owner of the original site has commented on the matter.
That is usually the case! I have heard rumors that Alex has setup all three and is planning on running the “race” angle to bolster “sales” once his original site slows down in the upcoming weeks. Shrewd play.
Comon now, you should know better than to believe rumors. 😉
I mean, just check the WHOIS’es of the domains:
http://whois.sc/milliondollarhomepage.com
http://whois.sc/milliondollarwebpage.com
http://whois.sc/millioneurohomepage.com
About as different as you can get. Different owners, different DNS servers, and different registrars. 😉
Don’t forget the Million Penny Homepage!
http://www.MillionPennyHomepage.com
I’m thinking of starting the “Million Hair Follicle” homepage, since mine’s all falling out anyway 🙂
Next in line: http://www.pixelmillion.com
Man, so many cheap and crappy ripoffs are showing up.
On a side note, wow, the original site has made like $60k now. 😮
Very good scam. I was thinking of the billiondollarscam.com. you can pay me to live it up thats a good idea too dont you think!!!!! 🙂

As a reaction to the milliondollarhomepage & all other copy-sites there’s a new site on the block that kicks some retro-pixel ass! Instead of selling ads they sell FAME! Why? Because fame sucks! Why should you earn fame, if you could buy it?? For some mini-dollars you can get some online fame & get a free Pixel Certificate with it! http://www.famesucks.be maybe nice to get it before the hype! Cheers!
Okay, this is getting out of hand. I’m killing the comments for this post. All you guys are doing is using my blog to advertise. Go use your own bandwidth to do that.
Not that it really matters anyway. All of the links posted in comments on this site are setup so that Google won’t use them for determining page rank.
