They give out loads of money if they have high traffic why would they be giving away free BTC?

I guess they get money of other companies to place their advertisements on their faucet site.

Traffic comes because coins are given away and that makes the money for the next giveaway. Circular business. :)

I see not actually profiting then just keeping a flow going?

My faceut http://bitcoin.villa-community.com/ has not made any money yet but I only loade dit up with 60 cents worth of btc and thats plenty, they dont give out much money.

i you open a faucet's page you can notice 2 things there are a lot of advertisements and if you move your mouse to the advertisements on their sites you'll notice they are from a couple of ad providers like anoymos ads, adbit, googleads, ..... the more traffic they get the better ads and more money they earn

visit this for getting the general idea:

1st place is freebitco.in with 0.4 BTC/day

That's true I see how they can make small amounts of money now but most choose just to reload into site again.

Viewing of ads on posted on there sites...........thats why he giving us BTC via faucet....

The advertisements doesn't really gain you much I hosted a semi successful faucet and was making no more than $2 a week it's not worth it in a business sense but more as a hobby & project.

I thought the most traffic to your site came from asia, you will gain more when your traffic from usa or europe.

It's a good experience, because people learn how to manage a site on a server and manage small transactions. Better preparation for the larger transactions! And you might be able to make some profit, at it

People that are owner of faucet have earnings with banner advertising, if you see a faucet website there are few banner !

Their profit comes from advertisements and i think that's the only way to make benefits from it.

Simply, benefits of owning a faucet is to earn a big quantity of money through advertising, much advertising. But you have to get much people in your faucet to earn seriously.

I don't think they earn anything from them most users use adblock and they even inforce users to disable it forget you man
i ain't disabling anything for them pennies.  8)

I once viewed a faucet from an opera mini browser with ads block activated and it didnt allowed me to collect a sat. Faucet owners get their income from their advertisement. The more traffic they get, the better their profit would be.

The websites that are actually worth going to have it built in to not work if you have adblock enabled

Right now, freebitco.in is able to get 0.71500004 BTC a day from adbit.co for having two adspaces.
Also, the site is having several other google ads.
