Is Pixelotto Paying For Hits?
Alex Tew’s newest idea? to make a million dollars; and an equal opportunity millionaire for a viewer with an itchy finger. For readers that are unfamiliar with who he is, a bit of bio may be in order. Alex gave birth in 2006 to an idea of selling pixels as a means of advertising; it was new, interesting and fun for hundreds of thousands all over the world. For some merchants, it provided new, yet short lived exposure. The MillionDollarHomepage is a collage of random pixels depicting images with messages provided by the owner. The idea truly provides a unique form of advertising.
Many others (copy cats) have tried to duplicate the pixel concept and collect a million dollars; either for a legitimate purpose or simply as a get rich scheme.
ShopFromHomepage was conceived over 6 months ago as a means to locate local business in various metropolitan cities for the benefit of all who are looking to shop local. The idea of creating an interactive map with the ability of offering a general message and a company’s website were ideal. Location and company information are available 24 hours a day. Utilizing pixel technology seemed the best solution offering cost effective and finite advertising.
Several key elements separate the two websites: Pixelotto provides the developer (Alex Tew) a million dollars and once again offers random advertising from Soho to Beijing. The merchants now have increased odds of receiving traffic to their site through the introduction of a lottery. Users will click on random images at a minimum pace of 10/day to be eligible. One of the setbacks is the traffic is not targeted: it is comprised of people with the goal of participating in a million dollars.
Where ShopFromHomepage differs is it offers quality/targeted traffic in specific geographical locations for merchants and customers. Advertisers, for as little as $100.00 now have an opportunity for customers to find them through local city searches. For the price of a one day newspaper ad, a business can be profiled for one year; small businesses that have not had a previous budget can now advertise their location and quite possibly block out the competition due to the finite real estate available.
Pixelotto will generate curious traffic searching for a million dollars while ShopFromHomepage has targeted traffic searching for local solutions.
