oh how about if visitors using ad blocker? how are faucet owners handle it?
thanks

In my old faucet I didn't do anything about them and I was still in profit, but for my newer one I will be using an anti adblock script. This is just because I will be giving out higher rewards.

so knowing by doing?   anyway 1$  per CPC or CPM would be a lot IMO and I wouldnt expect this amount. but is there a minimum CPM amount that I could calculate with in case of 20k +  pageviews a day?

There's no minimum CPM. My CPC on different faucets varied from $0.1 to $2. Just think about it as an investition. The worst thing that can happen is losing some coins in the first month, but then you'll know what to expect

Personally I don't do anything about ad blockers, it's not worth it.

ok that makes sense if there are no given numbers for CPM and CPC. learning by doing it
thanks

Guys... check pls, your website is down and API does not work

"ERR_TOO_MANY_REDIRECTS"

[whitewhidow]

same here !!   quite important!

We have watchdogs, we already know about this, don't send "Me too!"s please .
CloudFlare messed up something, I'm working around it now. API works already.

EDIT:
Website should be working too. If you get 403 Forbidden, please clean your browser's history.

thats what I though. I would like to do something against ad blocker or ask visitors to not block my faucet. would it make sense and not hurting the faucet if I would ask visitors to click any ad they like so I am sure that they dont have ad blocker and if they have ad blocker they would need to take it off so they can see the ads so they can click on one?

[whitewhidow]

sorry for the me too.   just a silly thought, have your watchdog post to this topic. or twitter, or have a "status" page on the website.

thx

The thing with that would be is that most ad networks are against you actually asking for clicks I believe. The way that I'm doing it is that I have a small piece of Javascript that stops the submit button being displayed if adblock is on.

ok I understand but if the submit button is not displayed, will user know why that? is it written there why submit button is not seen? thanks again

Basically, the Javascript just replaces the submit button with the text 'Please disable adblock to claim.' if adblock is enabled.
If adblock is off, it displays the submit button and works fine.

oh now I understand. thats very good then. I googled and found one script but I am not sure if it is the right one. are there a few good JS out there for usage?

thanks

There are a few, the one that I'm using is insanely simple to understand.

Basically, there is an external file in my FTP called ads.js. All ads.js contains is this code:

var canRunAds = true;

I then embed it into my website using this code:

<script src="/ads.js"></script>

Then, finally, I put my submit button in it's own <span> with an id, and then reference the variable to get the outcome.

<span id='subbtn'>
<input type = 'submit' class="btn btn-success" value = 'Claim Reward!'/><br>
</span>
<!--Check For Adblock-->
<script>
if(window.canRunAds === undefined){
   document.getElementById('subbtn').innerHTML = 'Please disable adblock to claim.';
}
</script>

Basically, it checks if the variable exists, if it doesn't, it replaces the submit button with 'Please disable adblock to claim.'.
This works because Adblock's detection systems are shit, and will pretty much disable anything with the word ad in it.

thanks a lot for detailed explanation, though I am not a coder but I will remember it when my faucet will be ready. what is the URL of Your faucet? it looks I missed it

It's on my profile, I won't post it here since it won't be using a micro-payments processor like Faucetbox.

You're at the correct address, I'm just fixing some bugs before I launch in a few days hopefully.
