Hey! Want to team up with me (as an editor) for the articles your team writes? I can ensure they are 100% error-free.

Looking forward to testing this, and I'll post daily as requested (even past the first month if you wish)!

I second the idea for account-based totals. I had separate ads set up depending on the site, and I ran into the issue where the earnings are too low to get payouts. Having them all funnel to one account would be a huge benefit.

Thanks! I had tried earlier and it said "not active" and showed the link to this thread. This time it worked though.

So here's my stats as of 3 days in:

Views: 90,699
Unique Views: 30,204
All Clicks: 15
Unique Clicks: 14

So essentially 1/3 of the total views are unique (actually more than expected, for faucets): A+
Clicks accounted for about 0.02% of the views

Some things to note:

1) I used a pure text ad, seen below:


2) This was with a payment amount of 0.001 BTC/day. So essentially it came out to 5 clicks per mBTC (0.0002 BTC per click). And 10k unique views per mBTC (0.0001 BTC per 1k unique views), or 30k views per mBTC (0.000033 BTC per 1k views)

3) Users aren't being paid to click the sites, so the above cost is for 100% interested users -- not fake visits

4) My campaign (at 0.001/day) is still active, so there are more views/clicks on top of the ones I listed above

5) With more advertisers, I think the view count may drop on a cost basis, so it'll be interesting to see how it pans out

All in all, I'm very impressed with the results so far!

Do note, advertisers, that your ad itself matters more than the site it's on. If your ad isn't compelling to users, they aren't going to click it no matter how many times they see it. With a better ad, my results would be significantly better.

Also possible. It's sad that admins actually condone people selling accounts. In the crypto world the ONLY thing we have is our reputation, and they are degrading it by allowing people to "farm" reputation and then sell it to others. And then people wonder why there's so many scams here. It's because for whatever reason, that's what the community WANTS -- a shitload of scammers.

Not to mention... if you follow the posts, he seems to have no grasp of.... ANYTHING. I highly doubt anyone is truly this ignorant. He's just trolling for lulz.

Thanks! I'm taking it a little slow ATM, evaluating each site before it's added. The goal is to get the most reputable sites on it, and then keep the list pruned (i.e. as a site goes offline/turns questionable, it will be flagged in the list as such). So it's not just going to be a list of services *today*, but also a sort of historical list, if that makes any sense.

Update! 06/19/2015
Added BetOnline Poker

Can I be re-added, please? I had to drop temporarily but I'm good to go now! And an odd situation: I'm not getting the text messages from Bit-X anymore. Never had an issue with this...

Thanks!

With Rollin you go up to 0.2 mBTC per claim. It's pretty easy to build that up too.

That's a pretty heated question, and it's really tough. It's really a balance between what's viable and what's worth risking, and it's hard to see what that amount is. It's important to keep in mind that cryptos are still young, and the majority of sites don't even last a year. This puts anything crypto-related in a high-risk category. The problem is paying out too much would put the business at risk.

I'm personally happy with whatever keeps the business going. To me, 1% of something is better than 100% of nothing.

I want to point out that the rollin BTC faucet isn't too bad, because you can set up a martingale after claiming and build it up while you do other things. Get it up to 1mBTC and you can cash out. And as you do this more, you get up to where you can get 0.2 mBTC per claim (which is very easy to get built up from). It's not as profitable as a signature campaign is, but it requires a lot less work and you can do both.

In the U.S. it's definitely a big risk. I was downloading (I wasn't even seeding) a 7-year-old TV show that never went to DVD and isn't available for streaming/isn't on TV/etc. Started downloading the show, and 3 days later I got 4 letters from my ISP detailing the exact episodes I was downloading, when they were started, who holds the copyright, etc. and got a warning that if it happened again, I'd be permanently barred from using the ISP again in the future.

I got hit by a second ISP a year later for the same thing (a completely different show -- also not available on DVD or elsewhere), detailing the same stuff.

I quit that altogether. And it sucks because I wasn't downloading them to steal -- I was doing it because when there's not even an alternative available... there's no real choice. I can understand being upset about movies, games, etc. But I don't think that if something isn't even being published anymore, it should still be illegal -- the publishers can't get money off it regardless when they aren't showing it/selling it. This makes it a victim-less crime, as they can't even claim lost revenue.

In any case, being hit by both major ISPs that are local to me made me stop it completely. I'd gladly help seed legal material, though. Even having a flag on the torrents (sort of like how some places put NSFW on some of their posts) would be a great asset.

Interesting idea. Tagging this thread to follow, .

You linked to a system that we can't access... I'm not sure how you expect us to see all your stats when you're the only one with the username and password. All we can see is exactly what's in that image. I'm going to drop out of this thread now, as the ignorance is showing that you're highly incapable of running a site effectively. For future reference, either share actual stats (don't just post a screenshot and expect us to guess your username and password so we can explore more) or share the login information.

And I advertise on many platforms. But that's because the owners don't keep trying to hide their stats -- normally I wouldn't even waste this much time trying to get someone to show something that actually matters.

An issue with those stats is they don't show who clicked anything. You could constitute 100% of those clicks or 0%. Nobody knows.

And what I see there is that over 50% of them are clicked once a day or less (total). Considering people go to your site for the faucet list, this helps answer a lot about whether the traffic is real or not.

Got it. I do worry about losing BTC due to a hack, though (especially with just how many sites ARE being hit). Is there any special precaution that's being taken to keep this from happening? And is there any insurance on the deposits, in case something does happen?

Thanks! And if you guys are interested on taking on another person to help get this service out there/known, I might be willing to join your team, . This is one of the few projects I can directly relate to, and I do PR already for my own projects.

Just did. That's also not too clear, btw. You have to go into the edit menu YET AGAIN to set a campaign. Ideally, the text on the dashboard should be a bit more intuitive. So let's say:

"Needs Approval" -> links to approval option
"Approved: Ready for Campaign" -> links to campaign setup

As it is, people have to keep going back to edit, but the options there change after each thing is done (i.e., the edit should just be for editing the ad. It shouldn't keep updating for the other options like submitting for approval and then again for starting a campaign).
