What is Pixel Advertising?
Pixel advertising, or Pixel Ads, is an
innovative advertising concept where many small graphic ads are
used to cover a page. The space on the page is sold by the
pixel for prices ranging from a penny up to a dollar. A
minimum purchase amount is commonly enforced; usually the
smallest block allowed is 100 pixels. After all the pixels
are sold, the page appears as a colorful collage of ads.
The ads are displayed for a specified length of time - periods
of one year to five years are commonplace.
For the ads to be worth their cost, the ad page
must be visited by a large number of visitors. Currently,
there are two reasons why these pages are achieving high visitor
counts: the novelty factor for some pages, and for others
the opportunity for viewers and advertisers to make money.
