Billion Hit Man !!! - Abbi - 02-21-2006
Hiya all this is the latest goings on in uk where i come from ,,,,,,,,,
This guy called AJ is trying to get a billion page views on his site for a thousand pound bet! worth a click... im not sure if he can do it though, there are only 6 billion people on the planet!
I found him on Yahoo News:
http://news.yahoo.com/s/prweb/20060205/bs_prweb/prweb341973_1
He says on the interview with Yahoo:
"ThePixelWebsite.com grew from nothing to 200,000 hits in the first week of being online, over a game of snooker, I just happened to be boasting about it to my friends, which later turned into a debate on how websites work and how to promote them... one of them challenged me, and I love a good challenge, they bet me and said they would gladly give me £ 1000 if I could make a site that gets One Billion Hits! There was one major clause, I cannot spend a penny in marketing the website, just me, my laptop and nothing else. We all know I could simply put a refresh tag in and leave my laptop on for a month. so I told him I would get 1 billion unique hits just to prove it can be done."
The site is:
http://www.onebillionpageviews.com
What do you think? I think its gonna take forever........

Are you kidding me? There are more a hell of a lot more than one billion people in the world. At LEAST I'd say 35% use a computer.

Are you guys blind, its a blatant money making scheme.
The advertisemnts on his site combined with the hits he gets are probably paying his wages.

He wont get there..myspace which is incredibly popular only has about 50 million registered users and its been out since January 2004 >.<
Billion Hit Man !!! - [Ghost] - 03-06-2006
Theres a differance between registered users and just plain ol' hits. What I'm wondering if he means unique hits or just hits in genral...
Billion Hit Man !!! - Snipz - 03-07-2006
I hit the refresh button 400 times and it went up 400 times.

Billion Hit Man !!! - hellsing293 - 03-11-2006
