Yes,

But with the amount of competitors, it's going to be hard.

This is a question to yourself, I'd say.

For some, even visiting faucets and getting a few satoshi is "profitable".
So you will have to balance the time and money you spend and the predicted outcome (which needs advertising, affiliates and so on).

If you make a faucet with high payouts i will put you in the top of my list (http://www.kwaasteniet.eu/faucet/) and maybe you can earn some money.
Don't make the mistake to make a faucet with a 5 minute timelock and a low payout of <100 satoshi. It's better to design a faucet with one payout an hour with a claim of 500-1000 satoshi.

Isn't that still a low amount? Satoshiquiz for example is giving out over 2000 satoshi for each question now lol.

If you want to make a faucet its profitable I think than earn from faucet. Set up your web with ads service like a-ads, Google AdSense.

When you have a big capital, then for a long term sort of business it would be profitable.
First few months you'll be losing big amounts of money, though once you get advertisers
you'll start gaining slowly. So as long as you have the integrity and budget to keep yourself
alive and sustained then eventually you'll get it all back, breakeven and profit.

I'd personally blame it on traders
honestly "YAY IT'S TIME TO GET BITCOINS AT A CHEAPER PRICE"

That mindset infects a lot and eventually makes the value a lot less

This is so true. You must start with a big amount of Bitcoin to keep your faucet alive until you get a decent advertisers.
I've tried to run a faucet before, but then I stopped it. Because in the first week it already costs me 0.005 - 0.01 BTC every day

Put a lot of ads in your site and its your faucet becomes famous like freebitco you will get decent money maybe a lot but im not pretty sure....

anyways dont put low prizes like 20 satoshis... because people will give up and never go to your faucet again


Title: Re: Is faucet profitable ?
Post by: izanagi narukami on January 13, 2015, 03:21:16 PM
Depends on how much fund do you have.

How much do you spend for advertiser slots.

how much the bitcoin price going lately.

and many more ....all must be calculated to gain profit  :)

showing lot of ads in the begging isn't good,ppl would not visit the faucet.
yeah i agree with low payout will also make ppl go to other faucets.

If you create faucet with which is slightly more profitable than the other you will the King of faucets. Go for it. Because for now payment from faucets combined with extra low price of BTC is like... not worth doing anything faucets related.

I rarely visit faucet nowadays. Well, simply because signature campaign is better. I earned around 10 Dollars last week. So, I wont suggest you making a faucet - there will only be around 100 visitors per day (which is bad!).


Title: Re: Is faucet profitable ?

Not clear about that but the investment is very low. Only on referrals may get little more. Its like time consuming system without much benefits.

Hello
Is making new bitcoin faucet is profitable ?
Thank you .
Nope, faucets were made so people can familiarize themselves on how bitcoin works and not made to make people rich as fuck :P
Want something profitable without investing too much ?
Try signature campaign
The only invest you need is to invest your time to  build your account get to the higher ranks to get better payout
;)

Edit :
Whoops, you were asking that question as the maker of faucets, not user, my bad :P
Anyway, the answer is still not profitable because income from ads is not that big compared to the maintenance costs, like paying for hosting, refilling your faucet and don't forget, fighting all the bots that will drain all of your coins out of the faucet :(
But, if done correctly you might strike a gold there man :)

Hello

Big nope. Fuacets are never profitable, only faucets owner and faucets rotator are profitable. Better you stop earn bitcoin from faucets, because it's really wasted your time.
I don't think you understand at all. This guy wants to make a new faucet and is asking if it is profitable. Yeah  it is, if you put up enough ads at low enough satoshi reward. Probably not, though. Faucetbox is your best bet for faucets.


Title: Re: Is faucet profitable ?
Post by: aardvark15 on February 25, 2016, 12:06:35 PM
I would guess that it can be profitable.  As a former user of faucets, I found that they weren't worth them time for me.


Title: Re: Is faucet profitable ?

the question is to general...
profitable for who?

if the webmaster held many satoshi for heself or if he gives them all out for claimers.


Title: Re: Is faucet profitable ?
Post by: wildan88 on February 25, 2016, 03:42:34 PM

Title: Re: Is faucet profitable ?
Post by: The Last Choice on February 25, 2016, 05:07:54 PM
yes i think it is, i`m using bitcoinker faucet every day and it pays me
it's for you, but the op want to ask he just made a new faucet and how profitable.

1. you should have many daily visitor
2. make much giveaway
3. looking good ads.

all are depends on your budget and the price, how much satoshi per min/hours/days ?
it's hard i think.


Title: Re: Is faucet profitable ?
Post by: extrabyte on February 25, 2016, 05:41:50 PM
yes. a faucet will be profitable if you work hard. try to give less award and make claiming timing low.
example: pay 15 Satoshi in every 5 minutes.
you'll see thausands of visiter for your faucet.


Title: Re: Is faucet profitable ?
Post by: Avirunes on February 25, 2016, 06:22:53 PM
Well if you are saying for users like us or visitors,faucets are all source of micro-earning.Best way to earn bitcoin with no risk but at very small rate.

yes. a faucet will be profitable if you work hard. try to give less award and make claiming timing low.
example: pay 15 Satoshi in every 5 minutes.
you'll see thausands of visiter for your faucet.

For the faucet owner ,I agree to the above quoted mesage of extrabyte.There are still newbies who loves always to start earning with faucet sites and implementing a small time frame between faucet claim is the best idea  to get a nice  no. of visitors in site.

Post by: zvlxxshd on February 25, 2016, 10:40:29 PM
I think it depend how you define the "profitable". What is the target for it? And you also need to answer yourself how many times and how much fund you have to start it. After that, then you can have a try and keep working on it even you lost at beginning. Hope it could be help for you.

Title: Re: Is faucet profitable ?
Post by: actmyname on February 25, 2016, 11:39:57 PM
For now. You need a lot of traffic to sustain the faucet if you decide to promote it actively (either with marketing with ads and other forms or by increasing your faucet reward and advertising your faucet that way). It could be difficult to start off a faucet, with the huge amount of faucets around, so you may be interested in seeking opportunities to join large faucet rotators. Perhaps by adding in unique features and nice/clever aesthetics, you can make it more appealing to potential visitors. (Maybe some sort of dice game. It allows you to take advantage of the gambling community, and can be profitable)


Title: Re: Is faucet profitable ?
Post by: Decoded on February 26, 2016, 01:22:12 AM
Yes, if you have a strong anti-bot system without loopholes. It's also hard to get viewers to your site, compared to all the other popular faucets out there right now.

Also you would need to make sure it cant be abused easily or you will find yourself being drained on hotwallet.  I don't think owning a faucet is a easy task... your just dealing with a TON of micropayments.   But some have been successful at it.

I still for life of me can't figure out why people use faucets.  I don't think they make sense.  Cents for hours of work... but people continue to do them.


Title: Re: Is faucet profitable ?
Post by: actmyname on February 26, 2016, 02:17:58 AM
I think faucet is not profitable. Better do something else like signature campaign, because you can earn bitcoin easily by posting and more worth than do some faucets.
Its not profitable on faucet.
you have to solve hundred thousand captchas to make a BTC
Yes its profitable i earn BTC0.001 everyday with faucets.
although clicking captcha is hard
yes i think it is, i`m using bitcoinker faucet every day and it pays me

And there. So many people disregard OP's original question and jump at the chance to post an already-stated reply, a million times, just because of the title. "Is a faucet profitable ?" pertains towards the faucet-owner, not a faucet user, guys.

If you would only read... Geh. Four replies, all in the same day, with a few lines and a disregard for any substance. That is waaay too much.

Good plan to save on your transaction. I too believe this is the only way by which faucets are profitable. As suggested its just waste of time, but I think referral gives you a bit high earning. I have never been into this, so not sure about it.

On faucets owner, you can profit if you have so much traffic or patrons visiting always your site.To attract more surfers,you need to have promotions and give aways etc. this is another expenses.

On the surfers side, its a minimal earning and some sites offers a lowest price.its a waste of time and effort.

if you have means to get massive referrals then using faucets can be profitable.

in order to do that you will need a website, blog, and other forms of public advertising like forums or places like reditt,... and you have to be always on top of advertising your links to get new referrals each day. so it needs a lot of work.

Faucet is profitable if you properly advertise and give a good offer and promotion then you can get a good number of traffic to your site, but who ever have come to this forum and knowing about signature campaign would not try to go back to faucet for earning as in faucets you can earn like peanut and for that also you have to give a lot of time to work on faucets.

Some thing new and cool concept in faucets and correct advertising and promotion can fetch you a profit in creating a faucet.

anybody with a website which has a decent amount of traffic knows that there are better ways of earning money through advertising banners either directly or through ad services like Google AdSense.

so nobody is going to populate their website with advertising faucet links and lower the quality of their website for a small earning potential.

Of course, you can have faucet and also its profitable when your faucet never goes dry as because, it'll reduce your faucet visitors and some rotators might remove your faucet from their list.

Your faucet should be unique. This might attract more visitors.

Your faucet rewards should be somewhat high with high affiliate commission. And also don't forgot to install anti-bot system that will revent your faucet from some spammers/scammers.

The hard part is finding people who want to do the faucet.  Most add up profits and figure they make cents per hours of work.  And it's dust in a lot of payments, although Xapo I will admit has helped on that.

But still cent's per hours of work does not make me jump at it.  I also think finding advertising could be a challenge.

Even less practical then I'm using my mobile battery and data usage for a few cent's and you will be even slower doing the faucets.  Get paid even less per hour and it is literally cent's per hour.

New people do faucets mainly.  I wish I could get them to buy a dollar of BTC vs hours of faucets.  And google adsense not liking them... is a big thing.  Finding GOOD paying ad's is not going to be easy.

Even less practical then I'm using my mobile battery and data usage for a few cent's and you will be even slower doing the faucets.  Get paid even less per hour and it is literally cent's per hour.

New people do faucets mainly.  I wish I could get them to buy a dollar of BTC vs hours of faucets.  And google adsense not liking them... is a big thing.  Finding GOOD paying ad's is not going to be easy.

It's not for profit, its just for passing the time, many people do that because there is a big % of users who visit faucets from smartphones and ipads.

What percent? Where are you getting numbers.  I just don't see it on mobile devices.  Those who do it.... pc is so much easier.  Go to site paste go past capatcha, or safety measures, paste btc address, go to next one.  Sounds horrible on most phones.

I don't see a large mobile consumer base on faucets vs pc's.

On faucets owner, you can profit if you have so much traffic or patrons visiting always your site.To attract more surfers,you need to have promotions and give aways etc. this is another expenses.

On the surfers side, its a minimal earning and some sites offers a lowest price.its a waste of time and effort.
Is this allowed if you are in Google adsense .  I mean this i like buying visitors?

If traffic is real, you're fine. If it's fake, you risk getting banned. Things like P2C should be safe. But if you really want to be safe, find networks that are 100% confirming they're fine.

so as a scrolled this thread Ive got a question, when making faucet page for profit you invest some BTC there and gain money from adscense and a-ads and campaigns like that right?

You could actually start a new thread and have a link back to this thread. Look, how many people replied to your post and how many people replied to #1 post which was a year ago?

Anyway, for your question the answer is yes. You will need to give out Bitcoin to your visitors first. Once you have a website with high traffic, you will be able to start earning Bitcoin ( or USD with you are using Adsense or alternative ) from advertisement. I would like to stress "Once you have a website with high traffic". Read below for more information.


I rarely visit faucet nowadays. Well, simply because signature campaign is better. I earned around 10 Dollars last week. So, I wont suggest you making a faucet - there will only be around 100 visitors per day (which is bad!).

Update: I own my own faucet now. It is not actually a faucet but rather a free lottery game where revenues is split amount three winners. Check out http://bitrevenues.com/. Since I started this game in July 2015, I have not break profit yet. However, I am slowing gaining profit. I am earning more revenues every month from advertisements.

In order for one to have a profitable faucet, he/she need to be really to throw in large amount of Bitcoin first. He/she also need to have patience - traffic (and hence profit) will not come in overnight.

thats what i`m saying, if faucet users were permanent workers, then it would be really easy to get rich.

just advertise the ref link, and your income will grow. Too bad that advertising costs way more than the refs could earn for you.

I think it's not a waste of time you should wait for the result in few days or weeks just make sure your always updated to your faucet. 30 minutes everyday. Its not a waste of time.. If you are starting your own faucet business patience is needed and you should sacrifice some of your time to promote and update your site.. You should have a 1k daily visitors to make lots of bitcoin in advertisement..  If you have few visitors pay rate of every ad network are low..

I think you didn't understand what op mean, He mean that if he start his own faucet business is it profitable?
All answer in this topic are wrong and the same.
Actually faucet is profitable for me you should manage properly, Set the rewards for the best result and set referral bonus.
But you should maintain your daily traffic to make lots of bitcoins..  Everyday update and every day promote so that you can get more traffic daily.
Some adnetwork paying the more traffic the more bitcoins will come...

Yes if you own a faucet to earn business then it is quite profitable. But if you use only faucets to earn some bitcoins then it is much time consuming and so little payout, that is not worth it.
So faucet can bring some more traffic to your site?
Does someone have some numbers how many visitors per month?

I think a faucet will become very profitable for the owner if he can successfully promote it to a good level, and get a good audience. But, the tricky part is that too. To get visitors to your faucet. Not many people now goes through faucets every single day for an hour or two. I think the most important thing is to find the right balance between the rewards and the claim times, and your budget... So you can attract lots of visitors.

I think a good average reward is about 500 satoshi at least one or two times per day for new faucets. 500 satoshi are satisfactory if you use it with another faucets.

I think the most important thing is to find the right balance between the rewards and the claim times, and your budget... So you can attract lots of visitors.

Profits from faucets as owner mainly depends on traffic you receiving & from which country that traffic belongs.If EU or USA you will surely earn profit but i check that mostly traffic is from RUSSIA,UKRAINE,BRAZIL & INDIA.But adsense pay low for this traffic.But this traffic is valuable if you using ad network which pay per impression.

Adsense some times pay upto 3$ for a single click not everyday.But click must be from UK,USA,AU,CA & some other high paying countries.So if you attract more visitors from EU and US & got some clicks then these click will give you enough money to pay all of your users from 3rd world countries.But its really tough to get some clicks on faucets ads coz users just visit for coins & they majority is not interested in ads.

That's true, it is really hard to get ads clickers on sites as there aren't much users who are interested in ads including myself, unless there is some kind of interesting ad with a interesting banner and the clicker is greedy enough then you may get a click. For example ad is "Get 1 bitcoin in a week for free, just click here and join" and the greedy person have seen it so you will surely get a click there. ;D

not if they use tor and botnets, there are many of that type, i had a marketing site a while ago and many botnet bots came from many addresses, but usually from east europe most of them.

east europeans are very dumb and cant put an antivirus on their pc, and they are infected and used in a botnet

Faucets are surely a free source to get free bitcoins, but they are only good for users new to bitcoin because if someone is new in bitcoin he will think that is enough for one day what he will get from faucets but when he grows higher in knowledge then he will come to know that he have been wasting his time there.

I'm old enough to know If I waste my time or not...
I know even people who prefer claiming few satoshi on my faucets than read here so much wrong things.

I have my own faucets and it is not profitable for me because i give away more than my faucets make profit.

And I hope that my faucets's users claim firstable for the fun to claim at faucets which are different than all the classical faucets ...

I play poker and it is not for the profit but for the fun...
people here see only profit...profit...and profit...
and if someone gives away more than income...he is taken for a scammer...because here most of people do not know what fun is...
My users prefer earn 0.1BTC with fun than 0.2BTC without fun...

If you have good number of referrals and they are active daily so it have to be profitable.
Running a faucet could be profitable if you get a lot of visitors daily.

When you have a big capital, then for a long term sort of business it would be profitable.
First few months you'll be losing big amounts of money, though once you get advertisers
you'll start gaining slowly. So as long as you have the integrity and budget to keep yourself
alive and sustained then eventually you'll get it all back, breakeven and profit.

Regards,
Small
Agree with all you mentioned above. it would be profitable on long trim and that's not so easy to know.

I think it can be profitable if you play it smart enough to show ads without being too bothersome for users. Those faucets that show ads, and then additional ads on a popup window when you click the claim button before showing an additional "I'm human" message, are a good example.

For now. You need a lot of traffic to sustain the faucet if you decide to promote it actively (either with marketing with ads and other forms or by increasing your faucet reward and advertising your faucet that way). It could be difficult to start off a faucet, with the huge amount of faucets around, so you may be interested in seeking opportunities to join large faucet rotators. Perhaps by adding in unique features and nice/clever aesthetics, you can make it more appealing to potential visitors. (Maybe some sort of dice game. It allows you to take advantage of the gambling community, and can be profitable)


Well I just launched my faucet. I really hope it makes me some $$. I guess I'll find out in a couple of weeks.

I'm actively promoting my website. The faucet has a unique design and content. There are ads on my website so that I get some return.  ;)

Furthurmore I'm adding some extra features later on (currently working on it)
  • BTC faucet
  • Multiple coin rotator
  • Multiple coin lottery
  • Bitcoin/Satoshi play game

Check it out if your interested

Title: Re: Is faucet profitable ?
Post by: Digitalbitcoin on March 17, 2016, 01:11:17 PM
Yes ! If you planned properly and start your faucet with little investment, then you can get good ROI by advertising space. Except than this you can make registration so that user must have to register with email address to it will be on email list. More advertising gives more audience, So it need some advertising of your site. For that you can reward more share for referral.

I think no, you can rarely get enough traffic on simple faucets now a days for getting some bucks from ads because of less users using faucets and if they are using then they just use some of chosen ones and surf them for a day so it is really not profitable anymore.

Thansk

yes. as I said above if somebody really want that his faucet work well and he earn good . then he should need to do lots of hard work to get his faucet successful in faucet race. you can make a faucet and get except btc from it if you give focus and dedication to your work. you need at least 2 to 3 hours a day to work on faucet. advertise it on social media sites. bitcoin related blogs, submit it on famous bitcoin rotators and keep in touch with other faucet owners.

If you want a profitable faucet then the guys above are correct,the days of just a plain faucet are gone you need to design something original that will attract users to it,if its a good paying site the advertising will look after itself as the bitcoin faucet promoters go to town advertising it looking for referrals.

Or if it is a plain faucet then it has to be a good payout to get the rotator guys to include you and you have to keep the site funded,there are a few big boys out there moon, Donald coin(not the fake clone going about if it doesnt have a chat you are on the wrong Donald coin)and wee Dan the alien chap,these guys alone can make you lots of satoshi so you have to tempt us miners with something good as we are spoiled nowadays lol

Great really appreciate !

If we see how money flows exactly then we must have to increase CTR and reduce Bounce Rate. In Tech term these are two very different things, even have own existence. I am not going to talk about CTR but Low bounce rate is very important for user engagement. Also you can engage with depth level to get more impressions. Major Advertising companies pays for CPM and next is CTR . As more or higher CTR will give more earnings.
