Sign in and click the big blue "Claim Free Blocks" button in the header.
You'll then have 10 free squares that you can use to make some blocks.
Select a region of the map, upload your image and title/description...
And that's you done.

Sure, that's on my list but since this is a side-project I can't say when that will be done. The site needs better branding and promotion, which I have a bit of budget to invest in that direction, but am currently busy because I've just moved country and am preoccupied with settling. One I'm free (and have suitable mobile devices to test on) I will work on it.
I'm still looking for a buyer to take the project off my hands since it has been difficult to market. As you can see even though I've slashed the pricing by several orders of magnitude people are only willing to use hacked twitter accounts to claim the 10 free squares several times over.
If you (or anyone) is interested then drop me a message.

I don't think this will work. The owner of the original page hired a marketing specialist to achieve media coverage. By that time it had some novelty factor. That's not the case here.
Bitcoin is still not mainstream enough for this to gather significant traction.
Just my two satoshis... feel free to prove me wrong.
ya.ya.yo!

Maybe not, but I feel Bitcoin does have a groeing committe, thus this page would eventually have significant traffic!

No, you make fair points. I had difficulty finding a competent marketing specialist who would be competent, both in social media and traditional media marketing.

Sure, for now I'm just going to keep the site online and see what happens. Drop me a PM about helping with promotion, if you have some interesting ideas I'd be happy to collaborate. Again I'm also willing to transfer ownership of the site, for a price, and divert all BTC earned to the new owner... at some point.

If you are willing to transfer the site and presumably domain what are you after? I'm not quite sure what you mean by 'divert all BTC earned to the new owner... at some point' if you did want to sell and I purchased I'd want to take control of all of it straight away. So far as I can tell this would be a gamble as it can go two ways and I could end up paying to host it until the end of time with very few paid up adverts. Is there a way to tidy up all the adverts setup with hacked or spam accounts using Twitter or Facebook? I'm also a bit concerned that 'themillionbitcoinhomepage.com' and 'millionbitcoinhomepage.com' are both registered.

I think you're correct but I feel the sentence is a bit ambiguous so I want to check. Say for instance if he wanted to hang onto some of the income for a period of time after the sale to hedge his bets if the site takes off, I would understand, but that'd be reflected in what I'd be willing to pay.

You make a fair point about the domains, but I have thebitcoinhomepage.com if you are interested. It's perhaps a good alternative, short of trying to buy the other domains. To clarify, I meant that in exchange for a price I would forfeit the site (either in its entirety or a profit share), depending on what deal is offered. As for what I'm asking for the site I put a 50BTC figure on it in previous posts, although I'm open to negotiation. I'm currently talking with a few interested parties, do drop me a message if you are interested.

The domain is a lot better but with the others that could spring up on, lets face it, the domains you would really want to mimic and gain any traction off the original presents a huge concern for me especially seen as they're naturally going to put a high price on them. It's all very well done and could well gain some serious BTC but I feel at the price you're asking I can't negotiate. Not because I don't have the funds to do so but because I would have wanted things to be 'perfect' as in: - The domain being 'millionbitcoinhomepage.com'.
- The paid advert rate higher.
- There not being anything similar and no possible branding conflicts.
- Some way to take payment other than BTC.
I know the last one defeats the point of it all somewhat but to drive take-up and get make use of any attention I think it'd have to be there but dressed up to somehow seem more BTC'ey. As it is the range I'd want to offer in is too different from your starting figure for it not to seem insulting. If your sights change at any stage and no other parties buy feel free to contact me.

Again valid points and I appreciate your feedback. I'm not interested in purchasing any more domains. The software as it stands functions well and has value perhaps to one of the domain holders, otherwise they can continue to squat on their domain indefinitely. They'll take a long time to develop what I did, alone, so the domain is worthless without the product (mine has many real-time aspects, and good UX). Credit card payment (and withdrawal) is problematic, perhaps backending into localbitcoins might be an option... but I doubt anyone will make a bank transfer to an unknown person just to buy some pixels. The site costs very little to run so I'll just see what happens, an explosion of BTC publicity later this year would be good for the site. Do drop me a private message though, you're perfectly at liberty to counter offer.
