Excellent Business Idea
This is a business that created by a 21 year old British student who's doing 1st year Business Management in University of Nottingham. This e-business is called MillionDollar Homepage. The idea is simple: Selling pixel on his one-page webpage to those who want to adverstise. He then make money from 1,000,000 pixels, each pixel for $1.
Alex started his plan on August. He's now a millionaire within 5 months. You can see how he started the business from scratch to a millionaire in his blog. He's now too busy with attending all the press meetings and interviews.
999,000 pixel were sold up to date, and the remaining 1000 pixels were placed in Ebay for auction. And guess what, the up to date bid is now USD160k before the bid ends on Wednesday. This is a real business, perhaps you would wonder why so many people pay for the advertisement. The answer is simple, this homepage spread from mouth to mouth and does make an impact to the revenue. Some even report that their customer's traffic increase by a factor of 10.
The idea is simple, but it works !!!
I was thinking to make a webpage called millionchurhes.com, where all the churches in the world can put their church logo in the homepage. The money that they pay for the advertisement will treat as offering for the church missionary.
Do you think this will work? God, please give me wisdom....

Well, sometimes some great ideas wont even bring you a penny, despite the fact that he's only 21. I appreciate that he's willing to try. "Luck" is one of the undeniable factors as well.
Who cares about the continuity once you make the first million....you can start on other business you like with the reputation.

"just 4 comments"-- weird name :p
The truth is there are millions of hits on his website. Gettting this kind of traffic is not an easy task. His website got famous from the spread of mouths, like what we are doing now.
Though i agree that the entry level for this business is so low, yet dont even think of doing another --- it's the first bird who get the worms
