American pixel advertising site announces launch of www.redneckpixels.com

Dan Daley and Steve McFadden announce the Grand Opening of
www.redneckpixels.com , a pixel advertising website
focused towards today's Redneck market. Inspired by the recent
success of UK's Alex Tew, the creator of pay-by-the-pixel
advertising, Daley and McFadden decided to "jump into the fray"
and develop a site, that would be patriotic, family oriented and
"just plain fun." The site, officially launched on January 12,
2006, is unique in its approach to serve the "average American,"
as a place to visit and experience a collection of advertised
websites based on today's popular "Redneck culture."
When asked why the choice of a Redneck-based content for the
site, McFadden answered and said, "Because everyone can truly
relate to today's Rednecks. I believe there's a little (or a
lot) of redneck in each of us." McFadden also went on to state,
"Comedian Jeff Foxworthy did a lot to take that "country hick"
or uneducated/uncouth undertone out of the word Redneck.
Foxworthy put the word into our homes and made us look at
ourselves in the same light. Most of us say 'I do that!' when
confronted with his jokes. Today's Redneck could be anyone from
a corporate CEO to the guy that pumps gas for a living. People
just do funny things and that often qualifies them as a Redneck.
They live, laugh, love, enjoy the indoors and outdoors alike. We
are targeting the common person that loves their family, their
kids, their toys, their pets, their faith and all of their
lovely, wonderful quirks."
The two are both family men that work together in the
Information Technology field. Daley had been following Alex
Tew's success and brought the idea of a similar site to
McFadden. They began planning and development late in 2005.
"We're just glad to have it up and running," stated Daley, "I am
very proud of the work we have done."
When asked what their immediate plans were for the site McFadden
stated, "We want to start getting the space rented out to
advertisers. Our goal, of course, is for the site to earn an
income and provide a valued service to our Advertisers and
Viewers. We will be selling off the first 100,000 pixels for
$0.10 each, that's $10 dollars for a single grid square. After
that, the price will increase to $1.00 per pixel, which we
believe is fair market value, as proved by Tew. The way to do
that is to get our site 'out there' for people to find and
enjoy. Promoting the site is our main concern right now. If you
can't find it you can't use it," he stated.
"We have a lot of plans for the future," stated Daley. "We're
just not going to talk about them right now," he quoted with a
grin.
The two share a lot in common but are quite diverse in other
ways. "That gives us a unique approach, I think," stated Daley.
"What I don't think of, Steve does." McFadden quoted, "Daley is
the dreamer, I'm the realist. We work great together on the job,
we joke, we laugh, and sometimes things get so funny that we
pull all of those around us right into it. Sometimes we get
going so bad we can't stand to look at each other, without tears
of hilarity streaming down our faces."
The duo appears to be on track with this endeavor. Who knows,
they might just be laughing all the way to the Redneck bank.
