He is selling his last 1000 pixels on ebay, current bid $ 37,000.00 not bad for an 19 year old kid.

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.d...ME:L:LCA:UK:31

wdforty · 01-04-2006, 09:24 PM

Very nice move.

Dirty F · 01-04-2006, 09:25 PM

Well that kid deserves every penny. Smart fucker.

Deputy Chief Command · 01-04-2006, 09:25 PM

hmm, I have pixels there , could I sell them and make huge bank on it ?

Mr.Right - Banned For Life · 01-04-2006, 09:25 PM

I would not be suprised if the bid would go over $ 100.000.00.

good Idea.

sumphatpimp · 01-04-2006, 09:29 PM

I would love to see the actual CTR on the ads on that page, and how many of those clicks convert to a sale.

Lace · 01-04-2006, 09:30 PM

How many threads are there gonig to be on this? fucking christ

chaze · 01-04-2006, 09:30 PM

Yeh but the ads will never get much traffic. But good for him.

That would be interesting to see. Its all good having the clicks, but the sales are important.

NoHassleSteve · 01-04-2006, 09:36 PM

I'm sure the page is getting plenty of hits now.

But I want to know how he talked the first advertisers into buying
their ads (min $100) with no traffic or media attention

Gave the first ads free or deeply discounted?
Buying a couple hundred of dollars in click to boost stats?
Lies?
Or just amazing salesmanship?

Mr.Right - Banned For Life · 01-04-2006, 09:40 PM

persoanlly i think he has done well with the idea. There is always going to be people that will give him a hard time only becuase he has made money and they have not.

People would get upset that they did not come up with the idea themselves.

I know it annoys me that i did not come up with an idea like it.

I wonder if something like this could work with porn.

brizzad · 01-04-2006, 09:42 PM

Just goes to show how far a unique idea can take you.

he had immediate media attention back when he started this in september becasue of the nice and original idea

I bought some pixels when the entire page was still blank ,

got to know the page when it was just 1 week old because of the then already huge media attention

it was not the mainstream media , but the tech news sites

It was definitely a unique idea. I kick myself for not coming up with it, not so much because it's unique but that it's so ridiculous. I would never guess that people would actually pay thousands for pixels. The ROI must be rather poor. But something unique and novel no matter how bizarre appeals to people. It's like my "My Pet Rock" in the 70's. A guy became a millionare by painting a faces onto rocks and putting a manual on how to take care of your pet rock.

Props to him for understanding and capitalizing on that feature of people.

How many 40yo's are earning $1million in a few months?

That is a figure that takes the average person 30 years to earn.

SomeCreep · 01-05-2006, 12:55 AM

There was a 1 in 100,000,000 chance that kid's idea would succeed and he just got lucky. Not a big deal, sort of like someone winning the lotto.

Agreed stupid idea that somehow got enough media attention to work & make money. The idea itself was not great. Selling pixels on a website with no traffic is not that smart if you ask me, nobody was going to buy traffic on a website with no traffic. BUT perhaps he is a marketing expert and planned the marketing of it or perhaps he just got lucky who knows?

He did get very lucky imo, good on him though, just shows what the power of the internet & media can do with something new.

Huggles · 01-05-2006, 01:11 AM

I am shocked GTS didn't contact him within a week of it opening and help him sell the pixel spots

emthree · 01-05-2006, 01:13 AM

Smart motherfucker. That million dollar he made is nothing.
He can probably get a 6Fig job at many big named corps now.

Shoehorn! · 01-05-2006, 01:17 AM

reed_4 · 01-05-2006, 04:59 AM

Beejeebers · 01-05-2006, 05:29 AM

He made the first $1,000 then paid for a press release through a marketing firm. That's how his site got picked up by all the media.

Smart fucker indeed.

candyflip · 01-05-2006, 09:01 AM

I stumbled upon this pixel site that's not a bad idea either. Probably won't take off like the original, but still a good idea.

http://smashmyviper.com/

jacked · 01-05-2006, 09:03 AM

for a 19 year old kid i'd say he pretty much banked it... that was one out of the box idea right there...

psili · 01-05-2006, 09:11 AM

Anyone saying the "idea" is stupid, or not the great have to remember that an idea is worthless. Period.

Execution means everything.

You can have all the ideas in the world, great or bad, but if you don't execute on them, they're worthless.

I give the kid props for having the idea and implementing it. Even it it failed, at least he tried.

Pryda · 01-05-2006, 09:13 AM

The kid is a genius!
