Alex Tew, a 21 year old university student from a small town in Wiltshire, England is the brains behind The Million Dollar Homepage, an ingenious idea to sell advertising space by marketing 1 million pixels on the website's homepage at $1 each in order to fund his way through university.
In less than a month since the site's launch, Alex claims to have sold 240,100 pixels, raising the same amount in dollars. An astonishing achievement. The site is currently second on Alexa’s Movers & Shakers list and for the last week ranked as the web’s 837th most visited site.
