Follow on Google News | Kiosk style advertising website to sell pixel spaceThe website pixelforapenny.com displays a client company’s image, logo or advertisement along with a link to their landing page.
By: pixelforapenny.com The heavily promoted website will quickly multiply its visitors and demonstrate the value of the concept, says phpMyDEV LLC (http://phpmydev.com) “This will be more than just the sum of its parts. There’s no superfluous content, no over-the-top graphics or videos to distract from the visual impact of a 1.28 million pixel mélange of ads,” says Richard Whitney, the website’s designer. “It’s the perfect online adaptation of the Parisian boulevard kiosk.” Advertisers choose the amount of space they wish to rent within a colorful composite graphic roughly the size of a computer screen. With a rental fee of one cent per pixel, clients display words or graphics linking to their preferred landing page. Hovering over any ad brings up a display of that page’s URL. This gives clients ad space plus greater search engine weight, Whitney notes. “With the advent and popularity of HTML5, CSS3 and jQuery—plus a little PHP thrown in to make it all dynamic—clients are designing more legible and elegant images or sets of images. Each can be fashioned to the devices their customers access the Internet with,” he adds. “Clients also receive the benefit of being on a highly trafficked website. And the client’s own web pages provide the content search engines are known to reward.” Ads will run for 3 months at a cost of one cent per pixel rather than relying on bids or other market based pricing, according to the company.
