1. What is the idea?The idea is simple: to try and make 1 million hits to my page, and if possible, earn €1million... much better! I'm going to sell visits to anyone who wants to buy them... In the initial page will be from now on a big advertising zone, where everyone can put their icon for a small price. With that I hope to pay my Internet costs, and ... may be in the future my home loan :P From now on there are 1,000,000 pixels available (begining with 500.000), every one can buy the visits they want, at the price of one euro cent each. You have to buy miminum 5 visits or more per pixel. Everyone is welcome to buy visits. The space is available in 100-pixel 'blocks' (each measuring 10x10 pixels also, you buy minimum 500 hits), so there are 10.000 spaces available. The reason for selling them in 100-pixel blocks is because anything smaller would be too small to display anything meaningful. So, if you buy a squares, a piece of 100 pixels x 5 visits, it would cost you €5. Of course you can buy 10 hits per pixel, or more!,(as much as you want!). That's 1.000.000 pixels x 1.000 visits each, 1.000.000.000 hits! (or more!) yeah! and may be, some of them would be inteested in me, and visit my homepage :) You can buy as many visits as you like, as long as there are some space available (see the live stats in the top right corner of the page). When you have a space assigned, you can then display an image/ad/logo of your choice in the space you have requested. You can also have the image click through to your own website. However, no obscene or offensive images nor links are allowed. The pixels you request to put your add, will be displayed on the homepage untill the requested hits are reached, after this time, you can choose to renew or to cancel your subscription. Using some of the money I make from the site, I guarantee to keep it online for at least 5 years, but hopefully much longer, So during this time you will have a piece of my homepage!!! 2. Who are you?My name is Miquel Jorba, I'm 25 years old, and I live in a small town too :) Manresa, in Catalonia (near Spain). Here is my story... since 1997 (or so) i've been creating web pages, some are personal, some are for small firmas, even some are restricted (photos and so on), most of them are in catalan, my motherlaguage, so not many people came and visit them. With this web, the idea is to create lots of traffic, and maybe someone would stop and see my personal page too. Untill now I had to asume all the costs that being online means, domain and server costs, and of course no one payed me to create my huge personal web page (lechuweb.com). With this changed idea (Thanks Alex) i'm going to try my luck and to see if my web gets more hits and becomes popular! (who knows!) I've been suding Computer Science for ... 6 years, (and i'm almost graduated!!!). Who payed my studies? well, my family... and actually i'm making some practics in DAMM (a large beer company from Barcelona). 3. Are you genuine/is this a joke?I am NOT completely genuine :( and although this way i give my site fresh air! and it's funny and of course, but it is not a joke! I'm proud of my work and to get some money for it, i'm going to sell some of my visits... so that makes me something like a traffic redirector... well i don't mind! 4. How did you come up with the idea?I was in the lab, with my friend Ruben, when we first saw 'the million dollar web' we started to talk we liked the idea! But we had to change it in some way... anyway tere was the hard work of coding all the stuff, so he gave up, and I began to work with it. I'm not a special person, nor better than anyother, but my hobby is to create Web pages (like mine..). Until the time I didn't get a dime for spending large hours making it... so I thought this could change by creating this! Creatng it, is taking me a wile... today is the third day... and there no scripts already :( but i've been thinking on what is needed, and the worse part it would be the buy it zone... :) 5. Why do you need €1m for your home page?I don't. All internet services and my time expensed yould't cost that, but they're not that steep! Even if I only got 1 or 2 percent of what i want to sale, that would sort me out. Any way if this goes on, increasing the traffic is something i wanted to do! 6. What will you do with the money?Pay my Intenet server, ... my university, and if I have some more hits and make more money, buy a home for me and my girlfriend :) and of course with solar panels (they cost 60.000€)!!! 7. Why should I buy your visits?Because you will have an image and a link to your site on the homepage of a site that could potentially be seen by millions of people over the coming years. The site will be online until ... who knows! but the idea is to keep it online forever, So you really could own a piece of 'internet history' if no one hits your advertising! 8. Why can't I request one single visit?Single pixel is meanless and pointless in practise, it wouldn't be so effective. With thousands of random tiny coloured dots all over the place, the homepage would look gastly. The minimum purchase is €10 - a 10 hits per pixel in a 10 x10 block. However! If you really want to own a smaller piece, you can always share your adspacewith your friends/family/colleauges and buy together 1000 hits. 9. How long will the site be online?The site will be online for a undetermined time, however the aim is to keep the site online forever (or as long as humanly possible) time will tell, but realise that this site has been online for the last 5 years (paying with my money), so why should I give up now, when someone helps me pay it? |
