I'm pleased to report that The Million Dollar Homepage is back online after
almost 6 days of downtime due to a malicious attack by hackers who tried to
extort $50,000 from me. I'm pleased to say that I did not pay a penny, and
worked closely with my hosting company Sitelutions and DDoSprotection.com to
stop the attack. I can also report that the FBI are investigating (this is
because my website is hosted on servers in the US).
Happily, now that the site is back online, I'm able to properly announce the
winner of last week's eBay auction for the last 1,000 pixels. The auction
ended Wednesday 11th January, but unfortunately that was just as the attack
on the site began, so I was unable to upload the winning bidder's pixels and
give them the fanfare they deserved.
So, without further ado, I'm very happy to announce that Elijah Kliger of
Brooklyn, NY, is the proud owner of the last 1,000 pixels for his new site,
http://www.MillionDollarWeightLoss.com, which sells a variety of weight-loss
products and supplements. The winning bid was $38,100 - congratulations
Elijah!
The auction completed the sale of all one million pixels on the homepage and
brought the final total I've earnt from the site to a massive $1,037,100 -
not bad for less than 5 months work eh! I've kept saying it, but this whole
thing still hasn't sunk and I'm really not sure when it will. It's been an
amazing experience and I'm sure 2006 will be an exciting year.
I'll keep you posted - I have a few new ideas up my sleeve :)
Thanks for your support, and have a great year.

He has now reached the $1,000,000 mark which I think is amazing :D
