What is Horse pixel?
Horse Pixel.com is part of a new trend in advertising.
You will see the main background image which is made of
10,000 small
blocks, each
block is 10x10
pixels making a total of
1,000,000 pixels.
You can purchase these
blocks and place your own image/logo in them with a link to your site. (minimum 1
block) for just $5 a
block equivalent to just $0.05 per
pixel. You may add alternate text when you are buying blocks so that when a person holds their cursor over the block/s you purchased your text can be read before clicking on your hyperlink.
You name and a link to youe website is also listed in the drop down list of Advertisers.
Once a block has been ordered (ie before Paypal confirm payment) your blocks will be reserved for 24 hours, which allows for any delays there may be in them notifying the server of the payment. Once notification has been received (normally within seconds or minutes) your image/logo and link will be added permanently to Horse Pixel.

Who am I?
Horse Pixel Advertising is sponsored and brought to you by Bowens Design. A colleague of mine suggested this idea late in 2005 after seeing Alex Tew's very creative "Million Dollar Homepage" and I thought a venue such as this might work for the Equine community. I searched for a script like this to bring to the Equine community and found one that I think is very well designed and easy to use. I purchased the script from a man named Greg Mathews. Greg lives in the UK with his wife and 3 children, he suffers from Cerebral Palsey and is currently self employed doing anything he can to earn a living, mostly online (you can buy this script from him by inquiring at sales@cgiscripts4u.com)
Why should I spend my advertising dollars with a minimum 5 dollar Horse Pixel ad?
If you want to pay more then please feel free:) this is the newest advertising trend and 5 cents per pixel is not a lot compared to most other sites like this one, several of them charge one dollar a pixel!
You're joking right?
No, I am deadly serious. I initially laughed at the idea when I heard it but then I found it was working and I have since seen lots of simular sites going online since. This is becoming the next 'mainstream' form of web advertising
Why are you selling by the block when others sell by the pixel?
To me a Pixel is far to small to consider trying to sell, you would never really see the image and the link would rarely get clicked on especially once surrounded by others. A Block is realistically the smallest size you could use and see easily, so that is how I decided to set it up. You can set it up to show only a colored block or a photo and it will link to your site.
Why should I buy your pixels?
What's in it for you? When you buy from Horse Pixel you are investing in a web site that could get a ton of traffic from links coming in from other sites and in turn a lot of exposure for your site. I will be linking from my design site and using the link in my email signature lines along with placing Horse Pixel banners on many links pages throughout the equine comunity.
With your
Pixel ad on the front page here at Horse Pixel.com, that means a lot more traffic to your site. More traffic could mean more sales for you. You might simply want to buy
Pixels for your loved ones as a gift, a memorial to your pet linking to it's page, etc. Anything is possible at Horse Pixels!
In addition to your ad appearing on here, our parent site Bowens Design will display a section from this site on some of it's pages, giving even more exposure to your ad.
What kind of traffic will I get?
It is true that most of the clicks will be random as in all online advertising, from visitors that are clicking on the images just to see where they lead. This is not necessarily a bad thing, how often do people stumble across a site and think 'oh I was looking for that' or 'I need that' etc.
How long will it be before my image is added?
The system is set up so as soon as it receives confirmation from Paypal that your payment has been made your image and link will be added so you should see it appear on Horse Pixel.com within minutes
How long will this site be around?
Horse Pixel.com will guarantee your ad to be viewable on this web url at least 2 years but I plan on it being around much longer than that. It may take 5 years to fill this page so you are looking at a pretty good return on your advertising dollar...or in this case five dollars
Where else can you run a banner on a front page for this amount of money?
Come on! Who's gonna find this page and look at it?
.......Well YOU are looking at it right now...... nuff said?
Come on board and join us to make a colorful collage of horse farms and ranchs, tack stores and trainers to visit.
Thank you for your patronage.
