A quick way to make some money off Paris Hilton
Paris Hilton’s belongings stored in a 6,000 square feet storage room displayed online. Price to view: USD40. It went online 24th January. In 2 days the site allegedly already had 1.2 million viewers, and the owner of the site became a millionaire literally overnight. 6 days later, Paris sued to bring it down. Her lawsuit alleges defendants Nabil and Nabila Haniss paid USD2,775 for the contents of the storage unit and later sold the items for a whopping USD10 million to entrepreneur Bardia Persa, who created the site.
But this one guy posted at Usenet’s alt.gossip.celebrities on 28th Jan: “Why pay USD40 for the site membership, you can get all the content for free at www.parisexposed.org” That site turned out to be some kind of Made For Adsense (MFA) site. That domain probably cost him USD2 and he used domain redirection to point to either a free webspace or his existing webspace.
This could’ve made him quite a few clicks. Not bad huh? I’d call this “opportunistic click whoring.”
