I am considering opening a BTC faucet. However I would like to know more about it. I know that it is still profitable, but you will need to wait for a little bit to get ROI. At least until some time ago tha was the case. Now, at this point I'm not certain if it is a good deal.

Opinions anyone?

I don't think it is still profitable i have also tried to run one using faucetbox script but after paying almost 0.10BTC total in a month i only get around 0.02BTC. This may not remain same if you can get lots of traffic with google adsense on your site. (i haven't used google adsense)

So, my guess is that it is still profitable if you use google addsense. In fact, with adsense I was thinking that if you get a lot of trafick and by adding some referrals allong the way you could get a pretty decent return. But I would like to know how much time would it take to get to ROI

I think not. Why? Because many people run AdBlock. When i used some faucets, i clicked on the ads, knowing i will give them some profit, but the majority just run your faucet on a rotator anyways.

It could be if you have original idea and invest lot of time and resources in it before you actually get something from it. There is shitload of faucets atm and competition is huge.

A faucet can be profitable if it has a good number of daily traffic and if it has ads that give a good revenue.
But to get those traffic you have to attract visitors with high rewards at first, so if you have a spare money to spend, have an AdSense account and you are not afraid of losing them, run a faucet and try

Asking if it is still profitable has some other hidden questions.
It all depends how the manager can mange his duties and how often is available.
A good factor here is the advertisement which brings the users to your faucets, but i still think that it is profitable.

It could be still a good one or rather profitable in the long run only if you do your best. Not sure if you notice but if only you check at the faucet that are created by the faucetbox script on the daily basis and yet when you check them after a week, their gone so easily and fast mainly due to the reason that their faucet was like others, nothing special that made people go back and nothing extraordinary done by the owner to give reason for people to bring profit. If you really want to go with this field then you should really prepare to invest a lot at first and expect loses in the beginning but in the long run sure it would be a profitable one as long as it stands in the crowed of other faucets.

I run a faucet and use adsense and bitmedia and i find that im losing money weekly keeping the faucet filled as noone ever clicks ads really. These rotators are killing owners and it doesnt seem to be subsiding.

It is possible to be profitable, but considering that there are thousands of faucets out there, and many of them are ultimately gone, it would be difficult to be profitable.

To profit, you would need good advertising networks, most favorable google adsense, as they pay the most, but you should not rely 100% of them. Next would be advertising the faucet itself, getting people to know it. Traffic is one of the main problems of faucets, so if you can get good traffic, go ahead. Smiley

You can start off and try, and here's a tip, make your faucet unique, implement some special stuff, like events and bonuses if you want users to return!

It's not a question of profitable or not. can you monetize your faucet (blog, website w/e) to make an income? < is the right question in my mind Smiley

the famous question.
i think that with highest price faucet is do not profitable. i am provide one faucet with great daily traffic, and adsense earnings, but after all now the bitcoin i invested in faucet, now have equal value with adsense earnings on this time.
The good thing is now i have domain with ~100000 Alexa rank, and I collected a lot of referral. One faucet I gathered enough ref. earnings for own "life".
BOTs are serious problem for faucet. First, make fake traffic and it negatively affects for google adsense RPM, plus drying up balance

There are lots of faucets nowadays. Actually you can profit from a faucet but you need to do some different things to attract users.

So just like with any other "online money making" method - you gotta add your own twist

Yes if you get free hosting and free domain name(such as .tk, .cf etc.)

Then you have nothing to lose.

Who ever coming to faucets to make some coins are only interested in solving capacha and move on to next faucet to earn money coins so they are not worried about the site owner profit and lose. So if any one want to make some profit from these faucets than you should come up with some additional activities on your sites which attracts visitors to keep on your site for long time than one can make surely some good profits otherwise mostly no. So try to keep the visitors on you're site more time for more profits. Smiley

If you dont have anything to offer for your clickers other giving dust amounts then consider your faucet to lose money.

Iam also interested in doing facuet sites. i heard that there are free faucet tempakltes out there and you just have to install the api from the faucetbox to use the faucet.
Then you have to load on some satoshi to get it going and opromote it..
Hm,m profits i dont know but would it be nice to have a gool Game within so that people also can try to reinvest there claimed amount to gain higher profits Smiley)

Would be great to hear about your pimnions Wink
