How Pixel Grid Advertising Actually Works
Pixel advertising strips a web ad down to its smallest possible unit: a single square that only becomes an ad when it's part of a bigger, visible picture. On a million-pixel grid, no single block is worth much on its own — the value comes from the grid itself being interesting enough that people zoom in.
- Pick your spot. Drag a rectangle on the live grid, from a single pixel up to a 300×300 block.
- Price is set by location. Central pixels cost more ($100) than edge pixels ($1) because they get scanned first.
- Upload an image, add a link. Your block displays your logo or image and links out to your site.
- Human review. Every image is checked before it goes live, which keeps the grid worth looking at.
- Renews annually. You keep the spot as long as you renew — permanence is most of the appeal.
