Imitations of The Million Dollar Home Page
It looks like we are already staring to see the first copy cat websites of Alex Tew’s, The Million Dollar Home Page, these copy cat websites are imitating what Alex at originally thought up himself, I have already received two emails in my spam box from two of these sites asking me if I wanted to sign up to theirs, I haven’t accepted either as I believe that Alex originally came up with this brilliant idea and it should remain that way.
Here’s a copy of an email I received from a guy called James, upon closer inspection and doing a WHOIS Search on his website you will find out that his site was registered on the 8th of September 2005 more than a week after Alex’s.
Hello,
I saw your pixels on the other site and thought you might be interested in helping me reach my goal as well…
http://www.MillionPennyHomePage.com
let me know if you’re interested.
Thanks,
James
And here’s another email I received, this domain name was also registered on the 8th of September 2005 but I believe this site is from another person different to the one who sent me the other email.
You’re on the million dollar homepage, but are you on the one dollar homepage?
Better than pixels – it’s YOUR homepage.

I will continue to be on the lookout for other sites like the ones I mentioned and I would like to ask you that if you see any please let me know!

Darren:
Alex has/had a viral idea, and in the world of the Internet…viral ideas catch on quick.
The MDHP isn’t a new idea in and of itself – it’s simply packaged in a way that benefits its end goal. Alex has done a superb job of marketing this thing to his benefit.
Though the ODHP and MDHP ideas are somewhat similar, I’m happy to admit that the ODHP looks nothing like Alex’s site, does some very different things than Alex’s site (we actually show the homepage of the company), and makes no attempt to conceal the fact that we’re in this strictly for the money.
Thanks for your comments –
ODHP

My hat goes off to Alex Tew, he certainly found a unique idea to sell ad space. I actually took his idea one step further… selling ad space by the BYTE! There are so many “pixel pushers” out there now that I needed to put a spin on the pixel advertising concept. Check out http://www.buckabyte.com

I do consider all of the ideas you have presented in your post.
They are really convincing and will definitely work.
Nonetheless, the posts are very short for novices. May you please extend them a
little from subsequent time? Thanks for the post.
