A 36 year-old mum from Carolina, USA, is selling her baby as advertising space on the internet.

Traci Hogg wants companies looking for a bit of promotion to use the extreme cuteness of her baby, 18 month-old Jake, to help sell their products. Jake will wear t-shirts with company names on them and has so far made more than $1,000.

Interested parties are invited to visit the website buyjake.com where they will find a message from the little fella.

"What better way to get your company noticed than on me, an adorable baby boy?! I get the attention of everyone I meet and they always notice my cute clothes! I'm told I have a great personality and am cute as a button."

Jake continues: "Plus, did you hear my giggle? I am such a happy baby and have many different expressions!"

Former banker Terri hopes to make big bucks from her scheme, whereby advertisers can hire Jake for £5,200 a month or £52,200 a year.

She tells The Sun: "I'm always thinking up new ways of using Jake as ad space. At the moment we are considering putting temporary tattoos on his face."

Terri also added that any money made would go to Jake so he could spend in on college fees or a car when he is older.
