Goal to Help 100,000 People Through Unique Christian Advertising

Pixel Advertising its all the craze! What is it? where did it come from? and is it truly effective? and what has that all to do with Christians and helping 100,000 people? The original idea for pixel advertising came about through a 21yr old english student named Alex Tew The story goes that Alex was thinking about ways to make a million dollars to pay off his university loan so he after a brainstorming session, he came up with an idea to create a website milliondollarhomepage.com where he would sell advertising space to anyone who wanted it but in the form of pixels. The idea was so unique and the media and press coverage that he has received from it has created a massive interest in this new form of advertising. Website owners who have been advertising on various pixel websites are reporting a massive increase in traffic to their sites on a consistent basis. This has only increased the amount of people wanting to try this bizarre yet highly effective form of advertising. Pixel advertising basically involves a business or website providing the pixel site with a image that they want displayed, they select how big they want it displayed then they pay and their ad is shown with a link back to their website. It goes without saying, overnight pixel websites have started to appear with a variety of different reasons for existing, but mainly to make money for the owners. One such website has taken a completely new and fresh approach to the pixel madness. The website www.iwasthirsty.com owned and run by Jon Mills completely caters to Christian businesses, organizations, churches and personal websites offering Christians all over the world the same opportunity of massive exposure and stampedes of traffic plus a chance to have their sites listed for free through a full page ad in one of the Leading Christian Magazines once the entire site is filled. At 50 cents a pixel, Christian websites can have a spot on the site and receive up to 5 years advertising, which is how long the site will be hosted for to begin with. The Story gets even more interesting Jon Mills doesn't plan on pocketing the entire $500,000 that the site could generate if filled up completely. No his goal is to donate $360,000 of it towards building 100 Water Wells through the website Lifetoday.org operated by the respected


Christian leaders, James and Betty Robison. " We spend so much of our lives trying to get things for ourselves,while all around us their is people who are barely hanging on to life.. I can't just sit back and say I will pray for them, I need to action" said Jon Mills. " The site has started slowly but I know its only a matter of time, Christians need to realize that we can only do so much by ourselves but together we are capable of shaking nations. I'm hoping that Christian businesses will understand that anything they give is completely 100% tax deductable, so they will get it back and I am sure God will bless them even more too."

Jon is documenting this entire project through his blog iwasthirstyproject.com. He plans to keep people up to date on the progress of the website and post receipts on the website as they raise enough money for each of the 100 wells.

" Well right now, a well costs $3.600 and is capable of helping on average 1,000 people, so being able to pay for 100 water wells would mean 100,000 people would be helped, that's a city for some folks!. I did spend a great deal of time trying decided whether I should lower the price or raise it, but after working out how much it was going to cost to pay for 100 water wells and then pay for advertising on a continual basis I decided to settle at 50 cents a pixel which is still a lot lower than most websites out their but still enough to achieve the Goal."

" Once the entire website is filled up, I will be paying for a full page ad in one of the Leading Christian Magazine, at this time I am trying to pin down who would be the best magazine to work with. This exposure alone for websites should be enough reason for them to consider buying a block on the site, yet I hope people will get inspired and challenged enough to want to come on board and help me reach this goal of 100 water wells in 1 year."

Well it will be interesting to watch how this website develops and the growing trend of pixel advertising
