Pixel script

Pixel Script or Million Pixel Script is a computer script that automates the running of pixel advertising web sites. This script runs on a web server capable of running scripting languages such as PHP.

Origins and developments

The concept of pixel advertising was conceived by Alex Tew at Million Dollar Homepage. Since then, pixel advertising web sites appeared in many places. A pixel advertising web site contains pixels that are sold individually to advertisers. The number of pixels is usually one million, although there are now many web sites that have doubled or halved that number.

When there are only a few advertisers, management of pixel advertising web sites can be done manually. However, as the web site continues to grow, managing those pixels becomes a burden to its webmaster.

In response, scripts are developed to automate the management of this million pixel advertising web sites. These scripts generate dynamic content of the web site as the advertising data is pulled from a database that contains the subscriber of that web site. A simple Internet search on pixel script, million pixel script or million dollar pixel script will reveal sites that offer this product.
