The internet forgot how to own a place.

One canvas, and it only gets smaller

There is exactly one board. Not one per user, not one per month — one. Every pixel someone else takes is a pixel you can never have, and nothing expires back onto the market. That is the whole design: a place where supply genuinely runs out is a place where being early is worth something.

Space sells in 10×10 blocks, 100 pixels each, from $12.66 at the rim to $50.64 against the centre. Nothing renews, nothing lapses, and there is no monthly anything.

The price is a fact, not a negotiation

Every quote is computed from two things you can see: how close to the centre you are, and how much of the board is already gone. As it fills, the multiplier steps up — 1×, 1.25×, 1.5×, 2×, 3× — for everyone at the same time. No sales calls, no tiers, no ad auction you cannot inspect. The person who buys after you pays more than you did, and that is the point.

Fully claimed, the board is worth roughly $1.1M — a figure derived from the same pricing code that quotes you, not a number we picked.

The Spot never stops being contested

The circle in the middle is not for sale. It belongs to whoever bid highest, and it keeps belonging to them until somebody bids $2 more — or 0.3% more, whichever is larger. It opened at $10. It has changed hands however many times it has changed hands, and that number is public.

It is the only thing here that can be taken from you, which is exactly why it is the most valuable spot on the page.

You can sell it, and grow it

A space you own is an asset, not a receipt. List it at your own price and the buyer pays you directly through Stripe — SpotPixels takes 5% and never touches the rest. Proceeds are held 14 days before payout so a stolen-card purchase can be caught before the money is gone, which is what keeps the market worth trading in.

You can also grow. If the board is still open next to you, push an edge outward and pay only for the new blocks. Being early beside a gap compounds — the neighbours you do not have yet are the ones you can still become.

Built to be found, not just seen

The board is a canvas, which search engines cannot read — so every sponsor also gets a real, crawlable listing underneath it, with the title and description pulled from their own site. Clicks and impressions are counted honestly, deduplicated per visitor per day, and shown to you whether the number flatters us or not.

Your link goes to your site. Not to a profile of you on ours.

What this is not

It is not an ad network, and it will not pretend to be. There is no targeting, no retargeting, no pixel following anyone around the internet, and no algorithm deciding who deserves to see you. One page, one canvas, everybody on it, ordered by what they paid. If that sounds primitive, it is — deliberately. It is also the last format on the internet where buying a spot means you still have it next year.
