you've got to hand it to the guy, that's some marketing strategy!

I think I'd give up being a student and set-up /page-2??

I bet he wished he'd called it mymillionpoundhomepage??

He was just lucky really. He had an idea and it suprisingly worked.

i think most of his revene came from the US from i think the name was the best he could hope for.

fair play to the guy, he had an idea, worked to promote it and made some money.

better than the original version "give me a dollar.com" or whatever it was called
