The 'a very nice homepage!' blog was created inconjunction with the www.averynicehomepage.com website. This blog will chronicle the progression and development of the website, including each of the Featured homepage reviews and any interesting observations as the website grows.

The inspiration for this website was from the Million Dollar Homepage website, created by Alex Tew. The Million Dollar Homepage's idea for selling pixel ads sparked us to create a similar pixel square site. While there are thousands of copy cat sites (a million dollars will usually do that), a very nice homepage! is different in that it contains listings of not only paid advertisers, but also 'Featured Homepages' (websites we like for one reason or another). For more information, read our frequently asked questions.

How does the site work you may ask? Here is how:

For paid advertisers, pixel squares can be purchased at $1 per pixel, with a minimum of a 10X10 square pixel block or $100.oo. Advertisers can purchase as many pixel squares as they please. The pixel square ads will be placed on the www.averynicehomepage.com website for a minimum of 6 years. There will be 2 links on the page, one from the graphical pixel image and one from the "Advertisers List" on the bottom of the page.

For 'Featured Homepage' selections, these websites are selected by us, based on website usability, design, functionality, or overall 'coolness'. We implemented this feature because it gives us a great way to showcase useful and interesting new websites we discover on the web. 'Featured Homepages' are selected solely at our discretion and will be featured on our site for free. While we anticipate listing 'Featured Homepages' for at least 6 years, we do reserve the right to change our mind. Know of any cool sites? Email us. Check back often for new featured websites. Our goal is to try and have a new featured website listed every week. We encourage you to buy a pixel square early - the earlier you get an ad, the larger the number of distinct website impressions your website will review.
