The Geek-Pixelads.com FAQ
What's this all about?
It's all about buying advertising space in the form of pixels.
A pixel is one of the many tiny dots that make up the representation of a picture in a computer's memory.
Advertisers submit images (normally their logo) to be displayed on our web site.
When the image is clicked, it links back to their web site.
Pixel advertising really hit the headlines in 2005’. Due to a young British entrepreneur Named Alex Tew
, who created the Million Dollar Homepage (see screen shot below). His idea was quite simple, to entice
advertisers to buy ad space on his homepage in the form of pixels, using images and/or their logo.
After a relatively short period of time, he managed to completely fill his homepage, also achieving a
Google Page Rank of 7 in the process!.
Some of his advertisers claimed to have received an increase in sales of some 40-50%!
While others experienced huge increases in their daily website hits.
This represents a new form of online advertising, but without the high costs typically associated with
other forms of competitive advertising, such as pay per click.
The true power of this New kind of advertising is only just being realised. So it’s going to be very interesting
to see how Pixel advertising develops.
Stay tuned to our blog!.
How does it work?
The grid you can see on our homepage, is broken down into ten thousand boxes  .
Each box is equal to 100 pixels (10x10 pixels). The whole grid is made up of to 1 million pixels!.

Note: The minimum order is for 4 x boxes. Which totals only 40.00 USD for 5 years worth of advertising space!.
You can buy as many boxes as you wish!.
Keep in mind that the more boxes you buy, the greater visability and exposure you will have to potential customers!
Why have you set a minimum order of 4 boxes?
The Minimum Order:
We have set the minimum order to 4 x boxes (40.00 USD), because in our professional opinion each advertiser
must at least have this to achieve the minimal amount of exposure and/or visibility needed on the grid.
So that their chances of being seen by new potential customers is improved.
This is particularly important as the grid develops over time, attracting more and more advertisers.
Who are likely to purchase much more than 4 x boxes, in order to achieve maximum exposure.
We would certainly not being doing our advertisers much justice, if we just took their money without any
thought and/or consideration to the objective in hand, which is to help them find new customers!.
Which is why we decided to set the minimum order to 4 x boxes (40.00 USD).
After all the whole point of buying advertising space is to be seen by potential customers, and not to get lost in the crowd!.

Does Pixel advertising actually work, and will it guarantee me New business?
The purpose of a Pixel advertising site is to drive significant amounts of quality traffic to it’s homepage.
So that advertisers have the best possible chance of having their Pixel ad (image and/or logo) clicked by potential customers.
From that point of view then, Pixel advertising certainly does work!.
Pixel ads are also incredibly cheap compared to other forms of advertising, such as pay per click.
Which makes them very attractive, especially for those working on low budgets.
However It’s not possible to guarantee how much new business an advertiser will actually obtain once their Pixel ad
is clicked, because this depends on so many factors. Including the quality of the sales copy and/or Internet Marketing
techniques used on their actual website .
