My faucet is not profitable anymore, I am not too greedy, but the days I have to put in more than that I gain are alarming and eating out of my reserve. How do I keep my faucet healthy? Should I switch to another method, give out more to attract more users, or should I just pull the plug and seek my venture elsewhere?
At the moment I am running a microwallet faucet with a 100/200 payout per hour, the userrate is stable, but the ad-income is dropping rappidly.
Any tips would be welcome.

Which ad networks are you using?
The rewards look good, and if you have a good userbase it should be fine to keep it as is for now.

100/200 an hour this is why you have lost interest that is know where near worth while is it? Try like 4000/5000 every hour or 2 and see how that goes. Or try add something different to the faucet it sounds like just an average un interesting faucet and there are many of them, (no offense) but this is why it has gone down hill because at the moment it is a waste of time for everyone involved. Someone uses your faucet all day 24 x 2 4800satoshi any idea how much that is? Dude that is worse than slave labor lol |

Do you have a referral program?
Do you block AdBlock?

Try like 4000/5000 every hour or 2
That is way too much, there is no way you can get that back from one user in 1 or 2 hours. |

If it is not bringing in any profit then I am going to suggest you hand it over to someone else, meaning sell it.
People get bored of faucets who don't pay much and yours don't. It's a tricky situation with the faucets. If you pay more you don't know if you're gonna make that much back from the ads, if you pay too little you're not gonna get any hits at all and not make any money.

Try adding other faucets with referrals attached into your faucet. Also is your faucet with landofbitcoin?

@HarryPotHead no offense taken  spicing up the faucet might be a good idea, I know it is peanuts, but is is on the rotation on several other sites like landofbitcoin. Making it run on it's own I might up it to 1000 an hour. 4000 is way too much, have not seen any faucet other than motherfaucet do that selling it is useless, it is on a subdomain and just a simple microwallet faucet anyone can set it up, but if interested contact me  maybe I should move to another faucetprovider, faucetbox or the likes? I am willing to put in some time to make it work. @CrackedLogicDid not want to spam the faucet, but it's on http://bitcoins.kurai.nl, It is latched up and I have my share of referals, which I do not take in for accounting when making up the balance of the faucet, might be I still do break even, as long as my btc income is higher than what goes out the faucet has potential finding the ad networks is no problem, I have a-ads, bitclix, adbit, coinurl and coinadvert. Maybe I should incorporate some none bitcoin ad networks, like I have on my comic website, but it is the idea that I support the bitcoin and keep it there I don't think I use an adblock blocker.. it is an out of the box microwallet faucet |

How much advertising/promotion have you done with your faucet? Is it popular? Check the users; where are the majority of your visitors from?

Also try get an english version to get more people on the faucet. I'm going to be honest with you, the design isn't the best. |

English might be better, design is too blocky, will look into that and might give it a try, will anounce it when done, maybe in a week or two |

Also, where it says "100 satoshi was sent to your Microwallet.org account." it's much too small, people can't even see that they've won something. And you should go through the forum, and every time someone says they've setup a rotator, make sure your faucet is added.

Another point of should raise. The address input and captcha is quite low. It should be raised to a higher position.

Thanks for all the pointers, they are realy helpfull!
I have upped my payout to 500/h and a 1% to win 1000, have to wait and see how fast my balance gets drained this week.
the faucet is placed higher up. Small changes, the rest will come, I might even move it to my main page and not the subdomain.
