So, here is the latest statistical update. I know it seems I am obsessed with this site but I want to see if anyone else is getting good responses or not? These are stats from the site:-

Total clicks: 202 (includes 119 clicks by registered Pixelotto players)
This advert received its first click on 05 December 2006.
Average clicks per day since then: 22
Clicks by day
05 Dec 06 41
06 Dec 06 45
07 Dec 06 21
08 Dec 06 20
09 Dec 06 13
10 Dec 06 7
11 Dec 06 23
12 Dec 06 21
13 Dec 06 11


The fact is that my site has had a real total of 70 according to google analytics.

What is true? I suspect that the edge has gone from Pixelotto. If you look at the site, not much is happening, very few new adverts. My theory is that for Pixelotto to succeed now, Alex Tew needs to spend some money on advertising or promotion.

Now its your turn, how many hits have you had??

Ok, I admit it, I bought some advertising space on www.pixelotto.com . I did it yesterday morning.

Why did I?

I wanted to see just how many hits you can get from the site. I have just had a comment on another post from a "Alessio" saying they have had 2,000 unique visitors after buying a banner. I have also read a blog with somebody saying they had 9,000!!

Is this actually spin from somebody at pixelotto or is it true? My site so far (first full day of advertising today) has had a total 69 hits from pixelotto. 69 unique visitors. Not 2,000 or 9,000 but 69. I bought three pixels at $600. Not cheap but worth it if I could achieve click through rate of 2,000 plus per day.

So, what about my true site stat's?

I have various tracking facilities in place and Lycos states my rate as 4 clicks from pixelotto today, 45 yesterday, that is 49 in total. Google analytics gives me a rate of 15 clicks yesterday and 8 today. Not really the thousands expected or heard about in the press.

Every day I will post an update on these figures giving you a true insight as to whether pixel adverts work or not! I would like to know if you have bought some adverts and what your real click through rate is.

PS. If you are interested, my banner says "find us", about my site findyourfleet. Can you see it?

I was the first blog on the internet to talk about pixelotto.com, the new site by Alex Tew.

When I first mentioned it, this blog and the site itself were the only links on google, five days later there are now over 10,900 links on google.

The guy has once again created huge amounts of web talk and now it seems revenue. One thing to remember, getting this sort of publicity needs cash. He started the milliondollar site with a press release and a great unique idea, followed up with around £50k advertising, the other 'copy cat' sites try to exist off the back of his idea, will never work or generate the same form of income.

Why?


Now he has free traffic and people want to promote it free..just makes you sick doesn't it!

Wonder if there is a target market for this sort of thing in France, the land of cheese, wine and dog poo everywhere!!

Alex Tew, you will remember him as the young student that made a million bucks launching the milliondollar homepage is back. His new site is called www.pixelotto.com . He has launched a 'teaser' on the milliondollar website followed by a standard email sign-up form, requesting an opt-in (legal requirement).

I have a fair idea what pixelotto will be doing, he has a good PR agent behind him and I guess, we'll all be buying pixels on his new site www.pixelotto.com soon, as he is promising to make the public rich this time. Will we fall for it? Lets wait and see.

I am instructing his PR agent, also mentioned in his blog, to take a look at my offer coming out on Sunday, free flights for every SME in the uk. See my business www.findyourfleet.com for more details.
