This is cool but you may need better discoverability.
The original million dollar webpage had the entire block of 1million pixels fit within a standard resolution browser window. Users could mouse over every pixel on it to see what each was without scrolling around on the page.
That site inspired someone to create the Million Dollar Wall, which scrolled sideways for like a mile, and was trying to sell ads on it. But it didn't work b/c scrolling is not fun or interesting.
You might have a similar challenge with this site.
- folli 7y agoI'm not sure if scrolling was the reason for it not working. Maybe it's just an idea that only works once.
- SkyMarshal 7y agoThat’s possible too. My evidence is only anecdotal, but when I tried the MDH I moused over almost every pixel to see who had bought it. It was quick and easy, no friction. But when I tried the MDW I scrolled for a few seconds, then got tired of it and lost interest. The wall went on forever, but I cbf to scroll through it all.
