Pixelotto at Pixelotto.com

The Pixels are back! As you may or may not remember this blog was basically birthed from the pixel ad idea that Alex Tew started. "the four required words" blog was a seo contest entry in "the four required words" seo contest held by Milliondollarscreenshot.com. By that time all of Alex's pixels had well been sold and I did not have a chance to get any for Tenthousandblocks.com, and i would have like to have at least 1 block...but oh well.

Well Alex Tew creator of the original Milliondollarhomepage.com has come out with a new pixel ad site in which he will be giving away $1,000,000 a million dollars, Pixelotto.com. You can sign up to visit the sites for entries into Pixelotto. When all of the pixels are sold a lucky winner will receive $1,000,000 one million dollars.

That means guaranteed traffic for advertisers, and with contestants only allowed to click 10 sites a day (which they can do in a very short period of time). And after checking to see how many entries they have gathered im sure more than a few have went back to the homepage to look and click some more pixel ads.

Now some are saying this is not converting traffic, in a way its true, but the same is true with all types of traffic. There is always a % of non converting traffic in any form of advertising you do. So that the non converting part are presumably when a Pixelotto.com contestant clicks your ad and continues to another ad. But what if they actually like your ad and will go back to it later? There is no software program to track human behavior in that fashion so you cant say that the traffic is bad or non converting, when in fact you dont really know what people are doing only assuming. I am currently ineligable to win a prize because i am an advertiser, but that didnt stop my from viewing the page and clicking on about 50 ads. Some of which i have actually bookmarked, because companies design specials for Pixelotto visitors, so thats a bonus.

So, i had to see for myself and got in early at Pixelotto. 1 block bought so for for the first round. There is going to be multiple rounds maybe, which can be costly to an advertiser at $200 a block per round. So if you would like to get in cheap, you can get you pixel ad on Tenthousandblocks.com for the next few years and possibly few rounds of Pixelotto.

Overall, Pixelotto is a much better idea and concept which directly gets the visitors involved with the website in a unique way by giving away something everyone seems to want right now $1,000,000 one million dollars. Pixelotto.com builds directly off where the Milliondollarhomepage.com left off. Even if all the pixels dont sell, the year of clicks will be well worth it.

Like always, time will tell. See if you can find the T on Pixelotto that we used for our pixel ad. The exact pixel ad we used is mentioned on the blog at Tenthousandblocks.com/news.php with a picture to help you out if you need it.

The Pixelotto prize fund is now up to $130,400. Goto Pixelotto.com
