A Unique Hybrid of American Idol and Pixel Ad Concept - Cycontest.com Offers Something for All Those Star Wannabes and Reality-Based Show Lovers

A Unique Hybrid of American Idol and Pixel Ad Concept - Cycontest.com Offers Something for All Those Star Wannabes and Reality-Based Show Lovers

ROCKVILLE, Md., July 29 /PRNewswire/ -- Another season of American Idol is over. Missed another season of American Idol audition? Now what? With the popularity of American Idol, Dancing with the Stars and other reality-based talent shows, Cycontest.com created a website to capture many of the amateur and professional talents from around the world on one web page. The website is based on the pixel ad concept that made a British teen instantly famous and a millionaire in less than a year. However, unlike the original pixel ad concept that targeted online advertisers, Cycontest.com will only promote talented people -- singers, musicians, dancers and any other talents. People who want to promote their talents, sell their CDs or simply show the world what they can do are encouraged to create a link to their website from Cycontest.com. The link must lead to their webpage such as YouTube, MySpace, personal homepage or any other means that carries their talent. People who love watching reality-based talent shows like American Idol can visit http://www.cycontest.com/, easily view a picture and a little blurb about each posting, and enjoy some of the most talented people from around the world. One musician commented, "It is a neat idea to take the million dollar homepage [pixel ad] and turn into something actually useful." Cycontest.com offers both free postings and paid postings.

Additionally, Cycontest.com will give back half of all entries made from paid postings to one of the talented people that utilized the paid grid to post, which can be as much as $200,000. There will be a type of voting by visitors similar to the reality-based talent shows. This neat concept that combines the popularity of the reality-based talent shows on television and the pixel ad advertising on the Internet is sure to be entertaining. A free grid is available for those who are simply looking to show off their talent to the world without the cash prize. A paid grid is available for those who wish to have more visibility than the free posting and be considered for the cash prize. Whether people are interested in showing the world what they can do or viewing some of the most amazing talents (or not so amazing talents), Cycontest.com is sure to have something for all.
