I also use them, but my CTR was very low.
I think it depends on what you trying to market and the results will vary accordingly.
I had some banners made on Fiver and was successful to a degree. I had some problems, where I set the daily limit and it went past that, but I still got value for money..
It's easy and very cheap, but the target audience for this is not high end Bitcoin users or hoarders... simply because they will not use it..
Topic: Advertising with freebitco.in - is it worth it? (Read 2928 times)
About a-ads it costed me $0.5 for every signup for Dailyfreebits.com but received a lot many clicks as compared to others(about 4 times more clicks) don't know their legitimacy. A-ads proved to be better than Freebitco.in but Adbit.co wins it.
I used the same banner in both. https://i.imgur.com/OnuJPtk.png
Audience in both cases was faucet related as on adbit.co I advertised on different faucets. But freebitco.in got higher rates.
I have got another banner http://dailyfreebits.com/banner1.gif .Which bone do you think is better. I'm using the former one these days.

.Which bone do you think is better. I'm using the former one these days.Depends on what website it's used on. You need to make sure it's noticeable and stands out from other contents on the site.
For freebitco.in I'd say the 2nd banner should give you better results. But that's just my guess. It's always best to give them both a quick test run and compare the results.

NAME STATUS VIEWS CLICKS COST (BTC)
Dailyfreebits 42,722 68 0.03246872
I got $0.18 CPC and around 13 signups for this cost.It costed me $0.82 per signup.
On the other hand I advertised on Adbit.co(several faucet incl bitcoinker, bitcoinzebra, landofbitcoin, quickbitco.in etc) and got $0.043 CPC and it costed me $0.28 for each signup.Actually I got 90 signups for BTC0.08 spent at Adbit.co which is many times better than freebitco.in.
Now I'm trying a-ads network wide advertising and I'll post results with them.

Thanks for sharing.
Freebitco.in seems to have perfect audience for you, but that's a huge difference between freebitco.in and Adbit. Did you use the same banner?
Try playing a bit with banner's colour, contrast etc. You can probably get much better results by using something more attention grabbing.
For example, I used this banner (made in MSpaint
) and got pretty good results, as noted in the first post (1 click for 312 views):

While this banner only got me 1 click for 1177 views:

Notice the first one is the work of complete noob (myself) the other is properly done, but it's got mild colours, no sharp contrast, so doesn't grab that much of attention.

Yes, the audience set of CoinLearn will mostly overlap with any other faucet, but the difference is the audience that come for learning.
Hadn't heard of this platform. Will definitely check them out. There's CoinURL and a-ads.com as well.
It's a popular faucet, not an ad platform, I believe.
I'm not sure guys if you are talking about CoinAd
but yes thats "click-ad" faucet - positive is that clicking there people who now at least basic things about Bitcoin.. This is a bit more expensive but is much better: http://btcclicks.com/

Exactly. Those visiting freebitco.in are mostly newbies working for their first mBTC. It would be a good place if you are advertising for another faucet or ptc site or something newbies can get free bitcoin.
On the other hand, probably only a small % of them are interested in gambling with their hard earned bitcoin from faucets.
That's probably true. But there's always a chance some of those newbies will learn that faucets are waste of time and will buy some BTC becoming potentially valuable customers.
And surely there are few bitcoin-rich people among the freebitco.in users, mainly those who earn by ref links (top ref earners list is pretty impressive).
Long story short - I didn't convert those clicks into profit. Theoretically it's still possible, but very unlikely.
It still can be profitable on a large scale, in terms of dice sites, all you need to offset your expenses is 1 or 2 regular players wagering larger amounts.

I'm doubt that, many people come to that site just for playing that game,so you would get lots of views but not click.
But I did get clicks. My CTR rate was quite good. The question is what's the quality of those clicks, is the audience by definition bitcoin-poor.

Don't know why, but number of clicks jumped by 1 to 44 (number of views hasn't changed). The campaign is paused since 1-2 days before I started this thread...
Either there's something wrong with their counter, or someone kept the tab open for a few days (?) and eventually click my ad. Similar thing happened with the other campaign, got click ~2 hours after it stopped.
