Imagine there is a contest.

Contestants were all lined up, each with a PC and Internet Connection.

Each is given a website to promote.

Impromptu, without a list, without using paid ads, the challenge is to bring in

1000 unique hits on the page. The first man is the winner!

What will you do?

    I'm not sure what age has to do with it.

    I would deliver 10,000 printed leaflets to my neighbourhood homes offering something of great value such as how to make money from home info. It would need to be killer copy.

    1 in 10 conversion gets me 1,000 visitors.

    of course if I were building a real business I might do things differently

    This doesn't make sense -- you mean they all have to stand there in a line in front of their computers until they get 1,000 unique hits? And what does age have to do with it? Are you expecting them all to drop dead one by one while waiting for 1,000 hits and the last one alive wins? And shouldn't they all be promoting the same website to make it fair?

    Anyway, there's no point in simply getting unique hits as fast as possible -- more to the point is who can make a certain number of sales (or opt-ins, or whatever) first...

      Since you didn't specify "targeted" hits, I'd spam out the link and promise nude photos of Hannah Montana. Not to kids, to parents.

      I'm guessing you'd have your thousand hits and I'd be on my way in seconds...
