Great application of the idea, I'd be interested in buying it but that domain isn't memorable or convenient. If I were you, I'd license the site and sell it.

Thanks,

Yes, the domain stinks. First the dashes are not very nice (was well aware of this but all others were taken), second the name *is* horrible (The intention is to leverage the original million dollar branding).

Wanted this to attract casual users as well as advertisers, and am still hoping it gets use and money is sent to the listed charities (Sean's outpost, IndySci, Bitcoin100).

Again, am open to bids to license the site, I can very easily/quickly spin up new instances of it and switch the branding. Currently the upload code is tied to an s3 bucket (plus cloudfront for CDN), but this could be adapted to another hosting environment.

Currently have

Two reddit self-service ads: http://www.reddit.com/?ad=t3_1xov9d & http://www.reddit.com/?ad=t3_1xljl0

Open to offers.

Thanks to the kind generosity and support of a Bitcoin angel/donator here at BitcoinTalk I've been able to load the site with 10 BTC in prize funds.

Also have put in a campaign which gives users 10 free squares which they can use in exchange for posting a link on their Facebook or Twitter account.

The gold blocks are 3x3 squares in size and there are currently 200 of them on the grid, each with a value of 0.05 BTC.

1/((200*3*3)/(1024*1024)*10) ~= 1:60 chance of winning per user.

So I'm hoping that this drives some BTC awareness over social media in the coming days/weeks. We'll see.

We've had quite a few signups and free blocks created today.

This is a good chance to get some free advertising!

Good news!

We've updated the site and removed expiry dates from the blocks, now you can get permanent ad space on our site.

https://the-million-bitcoin-homepage.com/

Along with the free blocks promotion that means a totally free way to promote your Bitcoin business.

Cheers!

Thanks. By claiming the 10 free squares, twice, on both your twitter and facebook you've helped give the site a little exposure. However seems that you had problems when splitting your image over both blocks, which probably is best done by creating the image to size first, splitting it up (the cropping does not do any filtering/subsampling), and probably you'd have had better results by buying the 20-square block in a oner... costing you $5... but never mind.

If you want to amend the image please send me a link to download it (as a PNG for example), 320x64 pixels makes up the 20 squares you currently occupy. I'd be happy to update it for you, for free, of course.
