Bitcoin Forum

I was unsure on whether to do this, but I may as well since I am not using it at the moment.

Basically, before Land Of Bitcon's admin went AWOL, I owned a faucet and therefore have a place on his list. My faucet's address was http://www.minibit.co.uk/ and is listed as Minibit.
The faucet was still running when he stopped updating the list, however after that I shut it down due to technical issues. Since the domain is now dormant, but still getting 300-400 unique visitors daily, I may as well give a new faucet the chance to be on the list.

Here are Hostinger's traffic stats for the site from the 1st of March.

(The traffic for the latest day is down as I took the screenshot at mid day).

Now, obviously the stats will be wrong as they are based on my faucet. In addition to this, the faucet is quite low down on the list. However, it is still automatically followed by users by default, meaning that it will be included in the rotator. This means your site will be getting 300 - 400 unique visitors specifically looking for faucets.

I will not give you the domain or the hosting, however I will include your site in a full page iframe on my site. This will basically replace my site with yours.

I cannot give a specific time frame for when your site will be up for, but I have no intention to use the domain in the foreseeable future. I will keep the domain renewed and the hosting active.

Minimum bid: 0.01BTC
Minimum increment: 0.001BTC
End date: 72 hours after the last bid.

If you have any questions, feel free to post on the thread or PM me.

Thanks, and good luck!

Might as well give this a try. Can you do a redirect instead of iframe?
I bid 0.01

I was thinking of that, but I'm unsure if landofbitcoin will see it as a frame breaker and won't put it in the rotator. I can give it a go anyway, if not I can change it back.

Alright lets see after 72 hrs who wins and then work things out.
Is this a permanent redirect/iframe?

It will be up for a long time, probably at least a year. I will refund you if I have to take it down.

Alright, in that case please mention a minimum timeframe.

Minimum timeframe is at least a year, most likely longer.

Bid 0.015  :)

Thanks for the bid! :D

How much do you think you would be looking for roughly so we can skip the small bids :P

It's starting to get to a good price now. I don't like to influence my auctions, so I just leave it up to the bidders.

 Why don't you sell the website right away tough? That would make a whooole lot more money. I can definetly see this price triple or even quadruple if you could just sell the website rather then just the frame of our website on your website.

your assumption of the price tripling is simply baseless. It takes just 5 minutes to setup a faucet so the price wont increase unless the domain is nice.

 The thing that makes this website worth anything at all is that he is listed on land of bitcoin and already has a base of 300-400 visitors daily.

 I would definetly put 0.25 if it was the website.

The website used to be a Microwallet faucet that broke due to Microwallet going down hill. Since it broke I've put more of my time and attention into another website. I fail to see why a website which is essentially just a holding page would be worth any more than the traffic that goes to it, which is what I'm selling here.

If you want me to set you up a faucet or something once you have the website I'd be more than happy to do that as long as it was just a plain faucet script. I do not have the time to be creating a new code from scratch.

youre right. i like the honesty in you. rather than pouncing on that opportunity youve justified the low price. i just need a redirect. When will the auction end??

 I am trying say that the 300-400 IS whats important here.

 The problem is that , lets say I paid 0.1 and won the auction , and your website redirects to my website . This will help me get 300-400 free visitors right away and thats what I paid for , what about one day you cancel your redirect and decide to open the website again? How can I stop you from doing that? That is why I said you should sell the whole website rather then just redirecting it to buyers website.

I suppose you will have to trust me. I'm not going to ruin my two years of a positive rep for $30. I have done many successful trades on this forum as well as other sites, you can ask anyone on my trust page and I'm sure they'll back you up on this.

If you're that bothered then I will push you the domain over Namecheap, I doubt I will use it later on anyway.

Thanks man, the auction ends 3 days after the last bid. If no one else bids and you win, bidding will officially end on the 15th March at ~10:30AM GMT.

okay....since the domain is on namecheap can you push it to me if i win it? also, can we have an agreement of traffic estimates and longevity?

Pushing the domain is no problem. I can obviously not guarantee how long Land Of Bitcoin will last simply because I am not the admin, however as long as my faucet is listed on there I can guarantee at least 300 uniques a day. As said, if Land Of Bitcoin goes down or my faucet gets removed for whatever reason, I will refund you.

If anyone is interested, I can set up Google Analytics on the site and share it with you.

please do that. lets see how much traffic it gets until 15th march

I've sent you a PM about it.

Also, a problem. I forgot that the domain was not registered on Namecheap, it is registered on Hostinger. I have inquired about transferring to Namecheap, however Hostinger also takes Bitcoin if you're willing to make an account.

I dont really know. I might just sell my faucet away later on. i dont want tovspend so much now itself.

Hmmm.... BTC0.054  :)

Not because of the price.... But I'm wondering whether I should bid or not. Maybe I'll e wait for  a few hours and then come back.

 0.055 if you can push the domain to godaddy.

I can push it to GoDaddy, but you will have to pay for it.

 How much would the pushing cost?

Looking on the website, it appears to be free for me. I'm unsure on the terms of this though, so it may be different for you. Look on the website for transferring a .uk/.co.uk domain.

 How hard is it to run a faucet? Is there a non-google adsense way to make decent money? I can not use google adsense (country problems with cheques and google adsense only pays with cheques in my region like its 1990's here) So long story short , what are the best ways to make money with a faucet that gets 300-400 (possible more when it is live again) people visiting?

Google website monetization... or ask in beginners and help.

I bid BTC0.071

 I wasn't talking about any website or any currency.  I mean faucet website and I meant getting paid with bitcoins. I would much prefer people who are experienced in the subject suggest something about it.

I made a guide about setting up and running a faucet here (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=934536.0), if you have any further questions please post them there instead of here. Also, mindfulmojo is experienced in faucets, he's run one or two in the past.

Thanks for the bid, current leader is mindfulmojo with 0.071BTC

 That guide is awesome :D

Its wrong minifrij
Check my Proxy Bid, everyone want this auction, must bid over my proxy bid,

Whats Proxy bid ?
Say for example, a domain is in auction with a starting bid price of 0.001 BTC.

If bidder A places a bid of 0.07 BTC  for the domain, Proxy Bid will start his bid at 0.002 and bid up to 0.07 automatically on his behalf.

When bidder B visits the auction, he sees the current bid price as 0.001 . If bidder B decides to place a bid for 0.002 , he will be outbid immediately by bidder A, and the new minimum bid will be 0.005. In order to outbid the first bidder, he would need to bid at least 0.071.

Whoever said we were doing proxy bidding?

Terms of the auction:

Minimum bid: 0.01BTC
Minimum increment: 0.001BTC
End date: 72 hours after the last bid.

If you want to bid 0.1BTC, then bid 0.1BTC...

Yeah, sorry, but due to the way I've set the auction to end, proxy bidding is confusing. I would appreciate if you would make your bids in the thread. Thanks.

 wow man , this took off a lot higher then I expected. Does 300-400 visitors worth that much really?

This isn't just 300-400 visitors, it's 300-400 new people visiting your site every day for an undefined period of time.

Current leader is bitzland with 0.1BTC

 That is basically what I just said.

The way that you said it made it seem like it was a one time hit of 300-400 visits, which it isn't. It's continuous.

Its over 72 Hrs from last bid
i think i'm the winner and let me know how to transfer

No, I don't think it is.

You bid on March 18, 2015, 09:57:38 PM. Add 3 days (72 hours) to that and it is March 21, 2015, 09:57:38 PM. It is currently March 21, 2015, 12:26:02 AM.
Not long now.

 If you ask me it is undervalued right now , 300-400 people until maybe forever is a great deal. If you just get 500 people and put ads in , you can get deal amount of coins from that only and take this money back in less then a month. If I had the money I would put my coin down right away.

Auction ends tomorrow at 9:34PM GMT.

4 minutes left!

Auction is over, PM'd bitzland.

Thank you to everyone for bidding!

 38 dollars for 400 visitors a day is unbelievable. I would assume it would go for around 100$ instead. If I wasn't invested in an already going operation , I would absolutely bid higher.
