    There are alot of Million Pixel Home Page websites with no long term marketing plan after the Million Pixel Grid is full. But I have also noticed some new sites with more options on creating continues traffic. They have developed plans to give away large cash amounts, cars, ipods, xboxes, as part of a unique traffic generating contest, game, etc. They are evolving and becoming a real internet marketing option.

    Bottom line is no pixel site is going to come anywhere remotely close to matching the success of the original. It pretty much was a one-off thing.

    If any one is considering taking part in this new form of internet marketing I suggest looking for a Million Pixel Home Page with a long marketing game plan and avoiding the quick hitters that die out along with there traffic.

    Dig that Shawn, plus most of them are now link farms that will do more harm than good since they are all interconnected!

    What is going to make me go to a pixel site man, do you offer free music videos or something?

    They may not be as successful as the original but there are alot of them showing great success and if you achieve in filling up you Million Pixel Page you can probably say it is almost as successful as the original.

    It's not a form of Internet marketing... it was a one-time gimmick that worked because someone had the idea first. Anyone that thinks it's a "business model" of any sort is going to be sadly disappointed.

    I think it is as easy as looking on the internet and observing current Million Pixel Home Pages, Alexa is showing these sites traffic reports and they still continue to bring in large amounts of traffic and in return the advertisers continue to benefit traffic flowing to there sites. It may very well vanish as fast as it arrived but at this point there seems to be no real decrease in traffic.

    Shawn there are entire portals, forums, software programs and an entire industry that has developed around these pixel sites, so there are others making money, mostly the guys selling the scripts. :)

    If websites are recieving traffic and in return increasing sales from the Million Pixel Pages, then as of now it seems to be a new internet marketing business model. Something New and something internet surfers seem to like espicially the Million Pixel Home Pages with unique traffic generating ideas that award visitors.

    All of these copy cat sites that are selling pixel space are only link farms and will hurt your site more than anything. Like said in previous posts, the first was a lucky idea.
