Wouldn't it be nice if you could make $1,000,000 in a relatively short amount of time using the Internet? Well, this HAS actually happened! A 21-year-old british man named Alex Tew has successfully made his first million on the Internet. On one night of August, Alex was thinking about ways to raise money so he could pay his university tuition fees as he wanted to study Business Management. After taking down some random notes, the idea just popped in his head!

As Alex himself admitted, he was broke and had to find money so as to avoid graduating with a huge student debt. So he started brainstorming on ways to make money. According to him, the basic ingrediants of a successful idea are the following: First, the idea must be simple. Second, it must be able to attract interest from the media. And third, it must have a cool name. And this is how the Million Dollar Homepage project was born. It is essentialy a web page that has 1 million pixels for sale, for $1 each. You can buy pixels in blocks of 100 or more and put any image you want in that space, along with a link to your site.

When the Million Dollar Homepage first started, Alex sold the first pixels to family and friends and when he managed to raise $1,000 he send a press release to BBC. This is how the project took off and generated a huge amount of traffic. In the months that followed, Alex sold all of the remaining pixels and managed to actually make $1 million from this very simple idea! Not only that, but the page got so much traffic that most advertisers reported an amazing increase of visitors to their websites, some even reporting 5,000 hits per day!

Unfortunately, all pixels are sold out and there is currently no way for someone to advertise on that page, nor does Alex intend to change the content of the page in any way. And in case the title or introduction of the article mislead you, this is not an affiliate program or any other scam that promises to make you $1 million on the Internet. It was just a one-time thing, a creative idea by an individual which, amazingly enough, succeeded even beyond the wildest dreams of it's creator.
