I've been a member of this site now for 2 hours now, and I've been rained on a total of 4x. I've got over 200bits, and I'm loving every minute of playing here! Cheers to you, Bit-Exo, and I hope to hit the jackpot here

So just to get this straight, anybody can win as long as they bet a minimum of 1bit? This is valid for any game that you offer on Bit-Exo?

No longer 1000sat minimum. Quite okay, as 200sat every 10 minutes is still a great reward. Do you plan on keeping your balance loaded? I see you're already under 500,000sat, which will be done within a couple hours, I'm sure. Last thing I would want is to list your site only to always be in the insufficient balance category...

Great rewards for a 10min faucet; I'll be watching it closely! Good luck!

If you search the forums, you'll see that many people have started this already, and abandoned the thread eventually. Why? Because the list will literally be in the hundreds and possibly THOUSANDS, which will become extremely hard to manage. There are SO many new faucets popping up every single day, and just as many that end up dying out.

Technically, they can't be considered "scams" as they never took an investment from you in the first place, but if you're serious about this, maybe you should start a site called "badfaucets.com" or something and keep an updated directory/list of faucets that don't pay anymore. It's gonna be a LOT of work, but good luck!

This is a great idea, and here are my ideas:

• Place 4 ads on the page. The 3 that Google AdSense allows as per their policy, and 1 BTC Advertising ad where anyone can bid on the ad placement there. If your faucet becomes popular, users will create the price/bid for that ad space, which will net you some decent earnings. The highest I have ever bid towards an ad space was with Coinbooster for 0.01BTC/day, where I still only got 10% of the ad impressions after everyone else's bids for the same space. That means that all in all, that spot was producing [/b]0.1BTC PER DAY[/b], and the owner was receiving a good portion of that total from the ad network.

• Keep the faucet at 100-200sat per 10 minutes. I have 5 of the 10-min faucets open in separate tabs right now, and I never close the pages. That equals VERY GOOD quality traffic to your site and increases the average Time On Site per visitor, which will equate to higher earnings from Google AdSense. However, you can ensure that more users will stay on the page by offering my next suggesting:

• Create a minigame that takes no longer than 30 seconds as an ADDITION to your faucet. Earnings can be minimal, like 20-50 satoshi per game (maybe limit it to 1 game every 3 or 4 minutes), but this will make your overall earnings from the site around 140-300sat/10min, which will be a great contender to the other 10min faucets I currently have open (which I consider the top 10min faucets in the industry)

Keep it simple, and keep the commissions at 25% or greater, and you'll have a great formula that will provide a killer faucet where your earnings from Google will be pretty good. But the real profits will come from the network ad that users can bid for. I doubt that you'll get the 0.1BTC/day that Coinbooster (scam HYIP/Ponzi site, btw) got because of the investment nature of that site (which brought in high-rollers), but even if you earned around 0.01BTC a day from that single ad spot, that's still 0.3BTC/month, along with whatever earnings you can make from the Google ads, which will be well more than 0.3BTC/month...

Good luck, and if you design anything remotely similar to the above, your site will be added to the sites that I currently have open in separate tabs

The rewards are decent for hourly claims, but definitely well under the standard for other faucets among the industry. Chances are probably very small to get closer to 800 satoshi for each claim, but you have a decent faucet, nonetheless.

Notes: Your Anti-Bot answers and Claim buttons are very close to the ads, which seems as if they were deliberately designed in order bait clicks on the ads. However, since none of the links overlap the ads, I didn't report your faucet to AdSense like I do for blatant click-baiting faucets.

Cheers, and good luck with your faucet! I personally will not be visiting it again, but I'm sure that you'll do okay with rotators and faucet noobs!

My review of your faucet: It's a click-bait trap for Google AdSense.

Unfortunately, I had to be the asshole to report your account. You have "anti-bot" links and actions that aren't really anti-bot actions. They are click-baiting users into clicking your ads, which breaks the ToS of Google AdSense. By faucet owners continuing to cheat ad clicks from AdSense, you're intentionally contributing to Google's decision to not add faucets and bitcoin sites to their ad campaigns, which in turn kills the entire cryptocurrency industry. So shame on you for that.

I encourage all users to click the "i" on any ad, and click on the link that says "Leave feedback on the ad or website you just saw". Let's get bullshit faucet admins out of the cryptocurrency industry to make room for the honest ones!!



Besides all of that, I was able to successfully click on all the floating coins, but the Captcha section is still greyed out for me, which makes it so that I am unable to make a claim on your faucet.

Your claim button isn't working for me. I'm on Chrome on Mac OS X Yosemite 10.10.5. When can we expect a fix?

Well, I said that rotators often bring shitty quality traffic. That's not always the case, as I learn about a lot of faucets I never would have learned about if it weren't for rotators. But generally speaking, to have a visitor visit your site for seconds at a time, and make just a quick hit and run off of your faucet.. Yeah, that's pretty bad traffic quality.

But I do feel that there are plenty of faucets that receive good traffic! faucetgame.com is one of the best in the industry, and I'm willing to stake my reputation on that. And the 10-min claim sites are great because they keep the traffic on-site for a lot of their users. Which means the site gets an AMAZING time-on-site stat from those users.

I do believe that faucets, if designed correctly, can easily get good traffic. But my argument was that the faucets that get good traffic aren't going to be the ones that would fit into rotators very well. Most rotator traffic is pretty shitty lol.

In case anyone wants a play by play of my current situation. Since I have posted this originally, I've been reached out to by half a dozen people who have had the same thing happen to them, as well.

Not sure I understand your question. Are you talking about from rotators? I find a good number of the faucets I claim on from rotators. I believe i am absolutely good quality traffic.

This was taken after a week of joining that site

Unfortunately, I do have to worry about your balance:


You seem to think that's a lot. That balance will be deteriorated within a few hours if I started promoting your faucet.

Look at some of your competition's balances, and monitor them every hour. Notice how fast their balances get depleted:

http://fullbitcoins.com/
http://www.cryptomat.com/free-bitcoin-faucet/
http://earnfreebitco.in/

I wish you the best, but unfortunately, I don't have the confidence that you'll be able to keep up with the demand of faucet users and provide a reliable faucet if I were to start promoting you. At least until you gained some experience in the industry, mate. Good luck, and I hope to be able to list and promote your faucet soon.

Signed up under you, donaldcoin

For everyone else, DonaldCoin.com and HitPxl.com have been paying me religiously for a few months now. I trust this admin fully!

Good luck, all!

Admin, do you plan on increasing the reward for the daily faucet claims, or increasing the frequency? I'd love for you to offer a bigger draw for free users to bring them on the site, and keep them coming back so they can continue seeing the potential in how to earn more by referring more users.

Are you also paying for CPC on top of the CPM?

I'm legit, and I have sites with 2,000+ referrals

What's your point?

Did you manually set the time to display for a 24hr window, or any other time that may have expired? If so, just start the campaign again, and indicate a new timeline for your campaign to run.

You don't need to explain to me what a proxy is lol but if you have an account that you're about to payout, and an audit clearly shows that they have made claims from 100+ addresses, or even 50+ addresses, you simply don't pay. That, along with a bold clause on your site that says proxies and VPN's are not allowed will deter enough of the proxy/vpn users without making you look like the bad guy. Just make sure that you're actively in the forums explaining why a user didn't get paid, so others can see and heed the warning before they even join your site.

You have to understand the way that the faucet economy works, though. I don't use faucets and claim all the time because I want to or because I'm bored; I do it as a way to make money. Granted it's not a lot, but I have enough of a referral base (that's continually growing) to push new links, and I always push the faucets that have a good combination of payouts & ref commissions. A lot of heavy hitters in the faucet world do the same thing.

I don't know what your solution to proxies and VPN users are, but that's your concern, not ours... And I would hate for you to have to ruin your reputation, but under your current logic, you're pretty much then condoning proxy and VPN users? Your site doesn't have an active terms page, or an FAQ, or a privacy policy page, so I hate to break it you, but you're already going to have a shit ton of proxy users that are gonna be uber pissed when they can't make a cashout once you audit their account.

The solution to this is not by reducing the referral commissions or by operating it on a fluctuation model, but by making it VERY WELL known and clearly stated on your website that Proxy/VPN users are not allowed and WILL NOT GET PAID.

This is the same exact problem that InstantSatoshi encountered, and by the time they added the clause to the website, it was too late and the damage had been done. The biggest problem that they had was that the admin wasn't active in the forums. So instead of dealing with all the proxy/vpn users directly by letting others know that their withdrawals weren't getting handled because they were using proxies, those same users went on to taint the rest of the users by saying that the site was not paying. Those users then went on to say that the site wasn't paying, while never even hitting their threshold to be able to withdraw their balance in the first place.

I was able to successfully withdraw, even after 90% of the users in the forums and twittersphere were saying that the site stopped paying, but I got shunned by a lot of users saying that I was lying and that it was a forged transaction, when I CLEARLY documented the transaction with screenshots and links to the tx id.

I'm sure you can see it already here in your thread... People already saying that this is a scam.

Sorry dude, but I can't do your job for you. But at the same time, you can't punish users like me that are used to making a set commission and all of a sudden expecting for me to operate the same way, but not knowing how much I'm going to make.

This is a whole new side of the faucet industry that you don't know about, obviously... There are a few soldiers out there just like me, who build directories, mailers, and lists and blast them to referrals. We use our own money to advertise on big ad networks, pumping upwards of 1BTC per campaign on some of the bigger sites. All of this in exchange for referrals.

Essentially, what you're doing by offering a fluctuating commission model is this: Let's say I'm a Ferrari dealer. I'm provided cars by Ferrari corp at a wholesale rate. I then turn around and spend my money to market that car, add an MSRP markup on it, and bring the buyers to buy my cars. Then I get a notice from Ferrari that says that my commission for the sales will be randomly drawn out of a hat. Nevermind that i put my own money marketing it, and marked up the price according to the profits I knew I could make. My commissions are now randomly chosen by them. What would I do? I would get the fuck out of selling Ferraris.

I hope you can understand how important the faucet ecosphere is for me, and it may be just me, and I only have a couple dozen referrals for SatoshiNow right now, but I can guarantee that if your site was to pay me out, I would have had thousands of referrals within a week. And unfortunately, if you keep the rolling commission model, tell me now so I can save all my time and money... And I'm sure there are other faucet whales reading this right now that will agree with me.

Your job as a faucet right now is to prove just 2 things (and you chose this, by the way). These two things tie in directly with each other:

1. Pay users consistently
2. Prove InstantSatoshi was the only scam of its kind

Those are your only two goals. If you can do both of these things, I can personally guarantee that you will have one of, if not THE, most successful faucets in the industry.

Anyways, sorry for this novel, but I really really really want a faucet like yours to succeed. I want you to prove the naysayers wrong, and I wanted to help you get there, as you can see from my previous posts in this thread. But by you operating a rolling commission model, you're throwing all of that out the window, man.

No, bots don't use rotators much, but the traffic is shitty because people just visit your site to claim and continue on. But it's almost a necessity to get your name out there. Every popular faucet allows for rotators because they know that over 50% of their new faucet users come from rotators.
