1000Tags - Another Stupid, Brilliant Idea

Michael Arrington

106 comments »

I was talking with an entrepreneur earlier today about about milliondollarhomepage and what a simple, brilliant concept it is. It’s one of those things that will really only work once (although I have some further thoughts on that below).

1000Tags is different enough from MillionDollarHomePage that I think it will have a lot of sucess, too. They call it “the first commercial tag cloud”. And that’s exactly what it it. You can purchase a tag, pay by the character and font size, and hope that a lot of traffic to your site is the result.

They are selling up to 1,000 tags. Tags can be exclusive (click the Star Wars tag), but cost significantly more, and they will only sell 50 of them. The remaining tags link to a results page with what appears to be an unlimited number of results (click the Download Music tag).

How much does it cost?
The price goes like this (in US$):

* For shared tags, the price is $5 per character, but with a minimum of $25 even if your tag is less than 5 characters, which is ok since most tags will use at least 5 characters. Also, since the maximum tag size is 20 characters, the maximum price for a shared tag is $100

* Exclusive tags cost $250 upfront just for making them “exclusive”. Then, the price goes up depending on the number of characters and font size. It can get expensive if you use up lots of characters and a very large font size. Remember, exclusive tags are expensive not because we’re greedy but because we’d rather people book shared tags.

Like MDH, this site is a proof of concept that cannot be easily copied. Duplicate sites will clearly not have the ability to get the same level of attention. However, I do think already established websites could add a commercial tag cloud, or MDH-like banner area for logos, and generate (one time?) revenue from it. Perhaps 1000tags and MDH could even supply the APIs and service to do this.

Is this an incredibly cool new web 2.0 business? No. But it is a smart idea that I wish I had thought of and executed on. Good for them.

Thanks, Luis Salfro, for emailing me about this.

    It will be interesting to see what kind of sales (not clicks) the ads generate. I simply don’t understand what value a page full of ads has for users? why would we even visit such a page, but for the postings by you and other bloggers?

  2. Jie Kang

    January 10th, 2006 at 8:51 pm

    Clever concept, but doesn’t have the cache of the million dollar of MDH, and the visual impact.

    Did they contact you or did you find it on your own? It’s interesting to see how sites like this build their momentum in buzz in the early stage. Look forward to seeing it unfold in the coming weeks.

  3. PJ Hyett

    January 10th, 2006 at 8:53 pm

    Chunni, that’s just it, it’s posts like this that generate traffic to sites like 1000Tags and the Million Dollar Homepage. The joke’s on us, because the sites are completely worthless.

  4. Rod Edwards

    January 10th, 2006 at 9:25 pm

    The value to advertisers will depend on keeping their tag above the scroll. Once the above-the-scroll area is filled, you’re going to see a lot of silly alphabetical manipulations like “Aaaaaa amazon.com!” Consider the click volume of that “starwars” tag and how it will change with 800 other tags on top of it.

    IMHO, this is pretty goofy and holds limited value to both advertisers and visitors.

  5. BlogReader

    Is this an incredibly cool new web 2.0 business? No

    I agree.

    But it is a smart idea that I wish I had thought of and executed on. Good for them.

    Huh? I’m missing the “smart” part of this idea. Here’s my pitch of it “Its like the yellow pages … but all smushed together into one image! I call it ’smushed-ads.com’!”

    This is better off in crunchnotes.com

  6. Scrivs

    January 10th, 2006 at 10:12 pm

    Am I the only one that noticed the larger tags are affiliate links? Makes you think that the person could simply have built this to create a high traffic webpage so people click on his affiliate links.

    I expected something much, much cooler.

  7. Scrivs

    January 10th, 2006 at 10:14 pm

    In fact, all the tags are affiliate links! Basically you are linking to a scam artist. The MDH was cool, this is 1000levels.com below that.

  8. Michael Arrington

    January 10th, 2006 at 10:38 pm

    Scrivs - Yep, you are totally right. They’ve seeded it with affiliate links. I had not noticed that. I still like it though. A lot.

    How long ’till we start seeing “paid advertisement” tag clouds on blogs and other 2.0 style sites?

    I really think if this idea was thought out correctly it could be a big thing.

    Just having a page of clouds that are all advertisements won’t do much, but small tag clouds ala PPC all over the web, now that could be big.

    Who’s going to be first?

  11. Alfiegg

    January 11th, 2006 at 12:19 am

    These sites continue to buzz as long as sites continue to write about them. It seems PRweb are publishing press releases on these novelty advertising sites hourly.

  12. Coco

    January 11th, 2006 at 1:08 am

    I have a couple of thoughts on those affiliated links:

    a) they put those links so that when they launched, the page wouldn’t be darn empty.

    b) someone went up there and booked a bunch of affiliated links.

    A seems plausible. I wouldn’t call it a scam though. They could’ve been a bit nicer and just throw a few direct links, but who knows, if they had tagged TechCrunch for instance, perhaps then Michael would get back at them “hey, I didn’t do that nor I want people think I did”!

    B seems also possible. After all, nowhere it says that the site your tag would link to had to be your own.

    BTW, now I see some more that aren’t affiliated, so it looks lke the idea is catching up. I also like it a lot - not just this particular site but the concept itself. Somehow I don’t see the future of online advertising going to “selling pixels”, but selling tags? Hmmm…

  13. Lapin McAdam

    January 11th, 2006 at 2:23 am

    And now TechCrunch gets a free Tag, isn’t it ? :)

  14. micheal

    January 11th, 2006 at 2:57 am

    To be fair Micheal , MDH is just a site selling ads. Thats not a business model nor Web 2.0 . Also its finished in the next few hours. So do us all a favour and don’t profile it.

    MDH only worked because the kid hired a PR team to help him sell the idea to the press. On top of that the kid sold it on the pretence of using the money to go to university and now has decided to “defer” his studies. The kid is a con artist.

  15. Stephen

    January 11th, 2006 at 3:36 am

    Either way you look at any of these they have made the people cash. It is dissapointing to hear he has deferred from Uni though. He must be spending that time to watch the e-bay auction of his last 1,000 pixels which at the time of this post has 7 hours to go and is at $143.30 per pixel. Yep $140,300.00

    January 11th, 2006 at 3:38 am

    Now http://www.buyitoff.com/ it off is a very cool idea. Follows the same construct but they’ve extended. I think the most clever thing is the use of ’sex’ in it by buying the areas of ‘Monica’. Noticably the crotch costs a fair bit!

  17. Ed Dunn

    January 11th, 2006 at 4:32 am

    //In fact, all the tags are affiliate links! Basically you are linking to a scam artist.//

    I agree, it is a scam when you are selling ad spaces to some people and providing the same ad space on an affiliate basis to others. That is unfair trade practices.

    January 11th, 2006 at 4:35 am

    //To be fair Micheal , MDH is just a site selling ads. Thats not a business model nor Web 2.0 .//

    huh?

  19. Fortino

    January 11th, 2006 at 6:08 am

    There’s nothing smart about this. In all honesty, haven’t we all seen this done a thousand times? Insert “buzz-word” here and pay for sponsorship…this is nothing new.

    #5 is totally correct, it’s coverage on sites like this that give these little ideas the traffic they require to perform. Without bloggers, and most certainly main-stream media in about a month or so, this site and others like it would be nothing.

  20. TheShovel

    January 11th, 2006 at 6:42 am

    I think a lot of the success of Alex Tew’s Million Dollar Home Page is because of the story behind it: a starving college kid strikes it rich on the internet. We all love an underdog story and continue to beleive that the internet is the great leveler enabling anyone to be successful online (”just give me one more bubble, pleeeeease”). Still, it amazed me to see how fast MDHP has sold out. I mean, how much money does he need for college? I’d rather see one of the copycat sites for charity, like the Billion Dollar Home, see the same kind of success.

  21. TDavid

    January 11th, 2006 at 7:37 am

    As mentioned above in comment #14, Michael, you neglected (intentionally?) to mention the free tag situation for those who write about it like you did and link in (link baiting by tag1000?).

    Seems like some important missing disclosure/information there in this piece that makes your feelings of how “cool” it is at least a little suspect. Just a thought, might want to add that as an update or something for future readers.

  22. Lapin McAdam

    January 11th, 2006 at 7:43 am

    I agree with TDavid ( and comment #14 ). Now you’re doing exactly what 1000Tags want: getting publicity on the A-list Blogs in exchange for a “free” tag. And then, when they have a stream of visitors, delete the “get a free tag” page like nothing was there before ..

  23. Pete Cashmore

    January 11th, 2006 at 8:35 am

    Mike,

    I hate to say it, but this is neither original nor a great business plan. Take a look at Steve’s blog for just one example of where this has been done before - this guy started out with a site that sold tags, then moved on to selling his del.icio.us tags when it didn’t work out:

    http://www.micropersuasion.com....._tale.html

    Whether this one succeeds or fails I don’t care - I just think we should be building sustainable businesses, not creating flashy gimmicks.

  24. Steve

    January 11th, 2006 at 8:37 am

    #7, #20 and #23: Sorry to ask but…what is wrong with allowing affiliate links? Doesn’t Google allow them in adWords? I see affiliate links in adSense sharing ad space with other “legitimate” links all the time. So what?

    Folks who feel jaded by current online ad practices should check out my ’social ad exchange’ LinkLike:

    http://linklike.com

    It is a social networking web site for bloggers. Its metered ad exchange service lets you trade eyeballs with your partners, boosting unique visitors.

    “Metered” means that for every user you send to their site, they must send a user to your site. (If your partner falls behind, then our ad server simply stops showing his ad on your site until he catches up.)

    It is free… tags and all. ;-)

  27. Mike

    January 11th, 2006 at 1:17 pm

    I think this isn’t a horrible idea, but I doubt it will get the attention that MDH got. This site… http://www.zillionwebsites.com is doing something similar. Only instead of pixels or tags its selling space for banners…easier to read I guess.

  28. iTodd

    January 11th, 2006 at 1:37 pm

    Not a smart idea?

    Whoever started this is paying $5 for hosting, $8 for a domain name, and likely spent 10+ hours making it… and I’m going to bet it will be wildly profitable.

    Is it an ongoing sustainable business? No, but it doesn’t intend to be. That doesn’t mean its not smart.

    I don’t blame the MDH guy if he hired a PR person, if he is skipping Uni or not — he had the idea, he executed it.

  29. micheal

    January 11th, 2006 at 4:05 pm

    My gripe over MDH is the media made the site , without the media the guy would have made $10 dollars. The Media promoted it because he is trying to fund his studies and people bought into it because he is trying to fund his studies. If now he decides to skip university thats just lying to people to make a buck.

    As to techcrunch the MDH thought original its an advertisement billboard simple as.

    Am i jealous he made his money ? no cuse no way in hell would I have gone with the idea if I had thought of it simply because I wouldn’t have seen a way to make money.

    January 12th, 2006 at 1:33 am

    I came across this site over a week ago and it looks like they ar doing siomething similar to 1000 tags but they appear to be taking it a bit further by pushing the tags to other sites like technorati and delicious. They are actually sharing the tags outside of the site, this is a neat idea.

    Now this may have more relevant value for searchers, and avertisiers. They have more detals and a PDF on how it works at http://milliondollarkeywords.com they also have a blog on blogger.

    Kurt

  32. Rick

    January 12th, 2006 at 8:26 pm

    Just bought the shared tag “Dream”. $25 just to see what happens. Decent idea and good for them if it takes off. Like Michael posted… wish I had thought of it. -Rick @ BrilliantDreams

  33. evaggelos

    January 12th, 2006 at 8:58 pm

    I hate to say it, but a similar effort, that is a copy (or not so copycat? seems a bit original) is on the run. The truth is that the concept better. The guys who did this propably know what a tag is… it is at http://www.forevertags.com.

    To tell you the truth, I kind of dislike the concept of “1000 only, 1 million only” and so on. It just gives an expiration date to the whole concept, and looks like the guys who do it are only in for the money. The only traffic this site gains, is by curius who are dazzled by the MDH success, and want to see it happen again (like bloggers).

    Anyway, I am in no way affiliated with the forevertags.com website, and honestly, if you think so dont publish/delete this comment. (I am tired of writing it down)

  34. Will O'Hara

    January 13th, 2006 at 4:47 am

    Yep, they stole a day on us;)

    TagSponsor launched today and does something similar. You pay from $25 for a 12 month sponsorhsip of a tag. With our site, all tags are exclusive for the 12 month period, after that they can decide whether they want to keep the tag for another 12 months or make it publically available again.

    Trade is brisk at the moment but we’ll see where things go :)

    Thanks, Will O’Hara

  35. Steve

    January 13th, 2006 at 10:40 am

    Will, how is it that they stole a day from you, and you actually registered the name after they’ve got the buzz already out? This is not something you think about doing, and wait to register the domain name. Check 1000tags.com registration date, it’s November 17th, 2005. You mean you thought of this on November 16th? :-)

    I’m sorry but as the law says, from this point on, anything you say can and will be used against you.

    Copycats were bond to happen. You’re one of them even if you say you thought of it twelve months ago.

  36. Will O'Hara

    January 13th, 2006 at 3:33 pm

    Hi Steve,

    I didn’t mean it literally! Can’t you tell when a post is trying to be funny? I thought of the idea a while back, simple as that, i’m not trying to claim that i thought of it first. I didn’t register a domain and when i saw the 1000tags site is knew i should’ve done. Hindsight is a powerful thing, nevermind, we’ll see how it goes.

    What a load of rubbish 1000tags is, someone got jealous of MDH and wanted to create something “original” and came up with 1000tags.com Whoever created this needs to get a life and do something better, wakeup this is not original, this is just a rip off of MDH but in a different form. People can read between the lines we’re not all stupid we can see what 1000tags really is. Nothing but a pathetic attempt to make money and ride the hype-wagon.

    Jobless Boy Launches A Website To Sell 10,000 Jeans On The Internet!

    USA jobless boy has set his sights on earning himself a million dollars after thinking of a simple idea of selling brands new and used jeans on his homepage MoneyOrBox.com
    He had been thinking of ideas on how to make a little extra money for himself but some of his ideas either never worked out or were just far too ambitious.
    So far there are 28 jeans sold on the homepage which has netted him just $1300 but as visitors grow and more people hear about the site, no doubt more jeans will be added and he will progress towards his target of 10,000 jeans on his homepage and one million dollars in the bank.
    You can view the website by visiting http://www.MoneyOrBox.com

    I believe that Alex’s site still generates some indirect value for advertisers at least by improving their visibility in search engines. It has a PageRank of 7 and many still continue to add links to it (by the way, this article has just added one link). So, getting the link from website with such a high PageRank for as low as 1$ it is clearly a reasonable investment.
    Good luck to all the copycats :)

    Hi,

    I just wanted to get in touch to mention our newly launched website, TurfJam. Its an experiment in the worth of online advertising spaces.

    Following on from Internet legends such as the Million Dollar Homepage, TurfJam is an advertising opportunity for marketeers and businesses.. however, the difference here is that each spot on TurfJam is being auctioned off. There are 100 pieces of “turf”, being released 10 at a time. As each auction runs and completes we will be updating and comparing the winning cost of each piece (all are the same size) to see how the price changes over time, and in relation to the number of pieces of turf left.

    If you would like more information please visit http://www.turfjam.com or get in touch with any questions.

    Regards,
    Craig Williams
    TurfJam

    Oh boy, I just found this article tonight, March 11… 2007! It’s been more than a year it was published!
    Anyway, following the thread, this pixel pages fever seems to had disminished enough.
    But, but… what about banners?
    Hum, my site started as a commercial Startup, now it has become a personal project, collecting interesting websites from my Bookmarks and creating banners for them to upload into my directory… selling ad space has crease to be a valid business model, so I simply do it for fun.
