idea. Literally. Carlton’s new company, Million Dollar Hunt LLC(milliondollarwebhunt.com),
is holding a contest for $1,000,000. But it is the company’s new
spin on Web-based advertising that makes Carlton think Million Dollar
Web Hunt could be worth a lot more than its name suggests. This
is because the Million Dollar Web Hunt creates an effective way
to advertise on the Web: send focused and attentive potential customers
to sponsor
websites. Here’s how it works:
1 Sponsors pay $2,000 each for a place in the Million Dollar Web
Hunt, and more for special benefits like featured sponsor-specific
trivia questions.
2 To prepare themselves for competition, registered contestants
are encouraged to study sponsor websites even before the Million
Dollar Web Hunt begins.
3 During the Hunt contestants search for access keys on the sponsor
websites, and then answer trivia questions to get the next clue.
“The best thing about the Million Dollar Web Hunt is that everybody
wins,” Carlton said. “Thousands of contestants compete in a fun
challenge. Prize sponsors find themselves at the center of the contest,
with their products and services at the center of attention. And,
of course, the lucky winner gets a cool $1 million.” Contestants
and sponsors are already signing up to participate in the Million
Dollar
Web Hunt. Contest registration has spread through high-tech word-of-mouth
on popular networking sites like MySpace.com. “The contest sells
itself,” Carlton said. “Everyone likes a good treasure hunt – and
the prize is irresistible.” Sponsors are hoping their products and
services are irresistible too. Although Web advertising has blossomed
along with the popularity of the Internet, businesses have a hard
time getting noticed. Header ads are easy to ignore, and more aggressive
web advertising like pop-ups and spam can put a bad taste in consumers’
mouths. \"The Million Dollar Web Hunt is an innovative alternative
to these methods\", Carlton said. “The Hunt is a fun way to get
sponsors noticed without being aggressive or annoying” he said.
“We give advertisers information-obsessed consumers, who need
to know their website’s content to finish the competition. You could
not ask for more.” Carlton said that while he hopes to start a new
revolution in Web business, he also wants the Million Dollar Web
Hunt to be fun. “That was the original idea,” he said. “A fun contest.
The advertising is just a way to fund it.”
