I came up with this idea and from what others have told me, they think it's a great idea as well. The site is http://milliondollartextlink.com. Its a simple idea that no one has thought about. Coupled with how much money I plan on giving away during this experiment, this idea is so crazy it just might work. Alex Tew had to sell 1,000,000 pixels to make $1,000,000. Im only going to sell 1 link. I am wondering what are the best ways to advertise this site? Thanks.
Great Idea. I like it for several reasons. Simple Idea, and its also an idea that will generate curiosity. You would be better off doing a Press Release and ask someone professional to write it for you. Also do you have a story for this website? A good story can help you achieve your goal. Although from a search engine point of view I dont think advertisers would see a huge return in investment...but I could be wrong.. In fact I might just buy a Link!!
Oh there is definitely a story behind this site. This site is a basically a fundraiser to pay for my own, along my four brothers' college expenses. We live with just our mother, who is a single, twice divorced, high school teacher. My oldest brother (19) is a sophmore at a university right now and his tuition + room costs $42,000/year. I am a senior in high school right now and plan on attending a university to study engineering and compete in football and track & field next fall. My four brothers are ages 19, 16, 14, 12, and I'm 17. Obviously my mother is not going to be able to pay for 5 children to go to four-year colleges with her teaching job. That is why I decided to start this project. I think it will be a fun and effective way to hopefully raise the money my brothers and I need to pay for college, while making some other people money in the proccess. I will be giving away over half of my earnings througout this project in various forms. This includes rewarding the top submitters as well as random drawings that anyone can win. Anyways, that's my story. I'm not a greedy corporation. Im just a 17 year old kid who's looking to pay for college. If you want to talk to me on AIM you can message the screen name, "doktorpat". Thanks.
