Topic: ► A remember of old times - Faucets & Adsense ◄ (Read 1163 times)

Thank's for info! I'm sorry for the loss of two accounts.
It doesn't looks good then. I can forget about AdSense.

How many ad networks and which you guys put on one faucet? I had AdSense + Mellowads (+ sometimes Bitmedia), so two - sometimes three ad networks.
What is the best pair now?

Yes, I tried and I was banned again I'm resident in 2 countries too.
There is no way to run Adsense on any websites which offers incentives (bitoicoin related or not).

$5000 ..  it hurts! Without AdSense it is not this same..

Have any of you tried to run faucet with a different AdSense account?
Ps. I have two, because I am a resident in two countries. But I don't want risk that a second will get ban also ..

interesting .....Hope i will earn from my faucet 

It has a new owner now
Bitcoinspace suite (4 websites) was sold to a well member of this forum. He will develop an interesting project on this.

Bitcoinspace.net this domain is suspended

I was in the second big group.
I should sell my faucets after they banned the first batch of websites.  I had a 5000$ offer for Bitcoinspace.net and I refused ...
The regrets don't help

oh yeah I remember too.



lol, JK.

I do miss the good ol days.

Running faucets got me involved in the bitcoin community and now I work on affiliate marketing for many bitcoin related sites.

I even wrote a well known pdf ebook about how to start and run a bitcoin faucet website and I just gave it out for free (about 2 years ago) and I still get some people contacting me just to thank me for the help or to ask a question and I help for free but you are correct that it does not pay like it used to.

I also had few faucets in past and i run them also around one year with AdSense account. But i had around 10000 - 20000 visits per day. I tried to defend myself against bots as I could, but even that 20k was enough to get ban from AdSense.

Hard times ..

Adsense started to ban some faucets in start of this year. Then Adsense banned Bonusbitcoin.co, Coin888.com and some other faucets. And later they started to ban all faucets. Today it's hard to find faucets which are still not banned by Adsense.

About 2 months and it will be our anniversary of getting banned
I think we were part of the first groups to get banned

There you are wrong...
If you have high traffic...ok.
But if you have as well many users you have to share your income among many users.
it's not sure it is interesting then for users.
Why can I often offer so high rewards?
Because I have 2 big networks (winspiral.com and winspiral.net) with hundreds and hundreds of pages existing already for years and so I can run a kind of faucet with few active members.
I see it...it's market regulated and so soon more members the rewards have to be reduced.it is the only way to avoid to collapse.

Faucet now with adsense is near to impossible. I know there are few faucet owners using adsense yet, but it's very unstable, they can ban you anytime. If you want to make profit nowadays as faucet owner, there is an option yet, but you will need a high traffic faucet to join the good networks. If you start from zero, with 0 traffic and poor ads, you won't make profit and nobody will visit your faucet.

Starting from zero you will need to make investments (offer medium-high rewards receiving low income, loss on the beginning).

It is a large amount of earnings and i hope that i can reach that earnings since i was starting my job to increase my knowledge in blogging and seo. if i choose to start a business and run a faucet it can be profitable if there is still adsense but for now it is hard to get adnetwork that paying the same bid from adnetwork..
If i was started faucet before maybe i can earn that amount until now..

But it is fortunately so...
it is marlet regulated and my horrible design and poor english and my red trusts hepl to fix so high rewards per claim

You have the history here:

http://u2cloudmining.winspiral.net/best.php

The datas are without the voucher...
and without the dividends for investors (not counted in the 800  to 1200)

But you can see that it is not ever so high ...If the minimum is over 1000 satoshi...it wakes up people and it decreses.
But the interest is not only the reward...it is the fun to trade with.

This is a very high amount for these days ...
Many well know faucets offer les than 500 Satoshis (for example Freebitco.in faucet offer 0.00000255 BTC)

yes it was better as well for faucet users...
But I had never adsense and I was often at the top of faucet rewards.
The only problem nowadays for me is i can only run one kind of faucet:my U2 system.
Today the market has set the reward per claim at 800 to 1200 satoshi.
It seems it is the best I have seen nowadays.
Ok it is a little confuse for new members...but it is better then all the horrible antibots and popup I see on other faucets.

great earning bro....hope i will earn same new here, ,faucet+adsense
is there was not any other ad network which pays like adsense?

@FundsMoney - nice story!
Well, we (the romanians) are smart people
I started from 0 (same like you) with a free script (https://gitlab.com/minifaucet/public) and make it one of the top bitcoin faucets.
I had a good revenue source for 1 year from faucets (a minimum of 1000 EUR per month) untill Adsense banned me.
I can tell is worth ... I mean to risk the Adsense account.
I'm still in business, but the revenue is much lower now (arround 400$ pr month).
If you still want to join, maybe we can make something together (I have something in mind)

@superiorus - Wow! Nice stats you got there. What a small world we live in. I thought I was the only faucet owner in our country .

Now that you reminded me of those times, I will share my faucet story too!
I operated BitHell and BitHeaven. I also helped one of my friends with "TastyBTC".

I will cut the details and say just this: If you really want to something (generally speaking), you have to do it! I started my faucet business knowing almost nothing. I had google on my side and slowly but surely I started my first website (I only owned some free websites when I was younger, but those were just experiments for me).
Also, I was blessed to have the opportunity to talk to people much smarter than me. One of them was a girl designer and scripter (her name is Mendie , but I can't find her btalk username - sorry mendie!). She helped me a lot and I am sure I wouldn't have had such a great success without her. Thank you again, Mendie!

These were all of my earnings with both faucets:



I had an astonishing 7,5 million pageviews in total. I never believed I could accomplish something like this. It is not about the profits in the end. Money just comes and goes. It's about the fact that I, a simple man, had created something that was seen and used by lots and lots of people.

This faucet experiment was the most impressive thing I have ever accomplished online. And because of that I know that you never have to give up. I know it's a cliche , but it's true. I surely have learnt some important lessons on the road.

P.S: I was never banned by adsense. The reason I got out of this business is because I couldn't keep up with BOTS. My faucets were getting drained and adsense revenue started to shrink . In the end, it was simply not worth it... I somehow regret that I lost the website domains, but there is a slight possiblity I might try again someday. Maybe not with faucets, but surely something related to Bitcoin.
