Two young entrepreneurs are embarking on a record-breaking attempt to shake-up the current advertising industry, by creating the World’s Most Expensive Homepage.
Fabian Niavarany and Charlie McGowan, both 23 and recent university graduates have launched worldsmostexpensivehomepage.com. Businesses or individuals from across the globe can purchase squares on the page from a choice of 10,000 units or ‘squares’ which have a collective value of $3 million.
Co-founder, Fabian Niavarany, said:
“We feel that the advertising industry has become stale and with it being so fast-paced, wanted to offer a permanent slice of something very new. Currently, if you pay for a single google advert, very soon it’s gone. Or, if you pay an influencer to put up an Instagram post, it will be forgotten in a day. The aim was to design something unique and timeless and to create a piece of digital history.”
The homepage squares are split over five zones and range in value, starting at $100. It’s an opportunity to link a cross-section of services and industries that want to adopt a modernistic approach to advertising. Investors will be able to furnish their squares with an image and embedded links to their websites or social media accounts. Once the purchase is complete investors will have their space indefinitely and will never have to pay anything more. The advert space can be altered for different campaign requirements, meaning investors can continue to use the space time after time.
Fabian adds:
“With advertising costing so much in today’s world, we wanted to build something that was more open and accessible to everyone. Our advertisement option is also permanent and caters for all budgets. It doesn’t leave out the smaller players”.
They aim to attract a diverse portfolio of influential businesses, brands, and individuals, including social media influencers, musicians, sports figures and artists. The two entrepreneurs decided to trade in dollars as it’s universally the most traded currency and the objective is to sell worldwide.
Co-founder Charlie McGowan said:
“This is a unique advertising opportunity. There is limited space on the page and we will not be adding to the original number of squares. We expect the cheapest squares to sell out very quickly. However, to increase the longevity of this business opportunity, we will be opening a secondary market similar in concept to what Seeders have done. It will act as a trading platform for our squares. This phase will allow individuals and business to trade their squares for profit. So, watch this space.”
Fabian and Charlie have created this themselves on a small budget with no outside investment. It aims to offer a fresh, new perspective on advertising models and provide an opportunity to invest in a viral sensation.
WorldsMostExpensiveHomepage.com launches on Tuesday, 21st May 2019.
