Dammm why didnt I think of this.. A Buck a Pixel...

The man is a genius.

The most unbelievable thing is that anybody bought anything. I have to pay a hundred US just to put any up. Then what? I won't even be able to find what I wrote in that mess, nor what any ad company put up.

But it duped 8779 people so far. Well, if it is dumb and it works, it's not dumb, I guess...

Now we wait for the billiondollarhomepage...

And if each of those people paid a MINIMUM of $100 and a number paid in the thousands...wow. He's rolling in the money.

It's a million pixels at a dollar per. That graphic is almost full, meaning a few hundred thousand. If he fills that whole thing up he gets a million for the cost of five years of hosting - $200k a year minus tax and expenses. Not bad considering the small scale of this operation.
Edit: And of course they tell you exactly how much has been sold right at the top. $877 thousand already.

Don't you just love it when people answer their own questions?

Genius, damn, this is the kind of thing that makes you bang your head on a wall thinking how is it possible i didnt think about it before.

By the way, i found this on one of the ads:

http://www.mymilliondollaradpage.com/

And it's already made 103 grands, not bad for a rip off.

Bets on whether this is really legit? I mean, how hard would it be to post some fake numbers for the number of buyers to generate interest. If I were doing it, I'd post a huge fake number so the hopeful buyers see a site that's generating a ton of traffic, and are more willing to pay. So it wouldn't surprise me if the actual profits of this project are much lower.
