    I guess that's not bad for a site that has been live for only 3-4 days :)

    Just to let you guys who commented on the ugliness of One Million Hit Wonder recently... so I have taken onboard your feedback and have now updated it to look a bit 'less ugly'! Check it out.... onemillionhitwonder.com - at let me know if you think it looks a bit better.

    I've also introduced a competition, where you can guess how many unique visitors the site might have this week.....you could win a free tshirt!

    There are so many dump people, if you get into the news (tv,radio,newspaper etc) you can do it, but without any content its quite impossible. For example, i visited your site, but i wont visit it anymore because i dont have a reason to check back later.

    This could be very hard to achieve unless you advertise to some high traffic websites.

    Yes, I agree that I require some 'sticky' content to keep people coming back.

    I will be introducing a competition, as well as some frequently updated content, in the next few weeks, which will hopefully build some interest!

    My review is not about getting 1 million visitors to the site in 1 week (it is difficult), but the site design is nice!

    Cool Idea and a million may be achievable, but a week is a little too fast methinks. Cool design though.

    Thanks for the feedback. I'm currently making a few developments to the site, before I officially launch the site. I'm adding a more reliable statistical framework in the back-end, and some 'viral' elements to ensure new visitors will start flowing in :)

    I liked your idea. But, what is your planning about getting 1 million hits. What do you do? to get it.

    One week? Getting traffic is a long-term mission unless you buy the traffic.
    Anyway, what's the point of this? Are you just bored?
    I doubt you will succeed with it.. good luck though

    The only way as I see it, except buying direct traffic..Make a competition, the person who get you most traffic wins $1000, 2nd $250 and 3rd $100. Of course that requires you to spread the word about the competition.

    The aim is to start building some hype, once I add some 'viral' elements to the site. Stay tuned!
