im interesting to make 1 website wtih faucet list
Making a list is easy...... look up tables in html and make your list  or you can cheat and go to someone else's list and right click "view page source" and steal the code,modify a little with your ref number, colors etc

Thank you for the guide. I wrote my own faucet and I am adding features to it every day. At the moment I am not breaking even but I have only one ad and I am carefully doing the maths before adding others.

I am interested in how  bots can empty a faucet... do they really solve captchas or they use a captcha solving service? Do they switch ips and wallets?
here is the code i use to stop bots in the main index

Code:
//Checks that the username is not empty
  if (!isset($_POST['username'])||$_POST['username']=="") {
    $view['main']['result_html'] = '

Missing email address!

';
    $message                     = "Missing email address";
    goto error;
  }

  $username = $_POST['username'];
   //Checks if the user has written something in the captcha box

  $captchaChallange = $_POST['adcopy_challenge'];
  $captchaResponse  = $_POST['adcopy_response'];

  if (empty($captchaChallange) || empty($captchaResponse)) {

    $view['main']['result_html'] = '

Missing captcha, try again!

';
    $message                     = "Missing captcha";
    goto error;
  }


  $response = @file('http://verify.solvemedia.com/papi/verify?privatekey=' . $settings['solvemedia_verification_key'] . '&challenge=' . rawurlencode($captchaChallange) . '&response=' . rawurlencode($captchaResponse) . '&remoteip=' . $ip);

  if (!isset($response[0]) || trim($response[0]) === 'false'){
    $view['main']['result_html'] = '

Wrong captcha!

';
    $message                     = "Wrong captcha";
  }
//We do not allow proxy here is what bots use !!!!
 if(@fsockopen($_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR'], 80, $errstr, $errno, 1))
{
  $view['main']['result_html'] = '

Bots Not Allowed !!

';
    $message                     = "Proxy";
    goto error;
  }
  $q = $sql->prepare("select * from users where LOWER(username) = LOWER(?) or ip = ? order by claimed_at desc");
  $q->execute(array($username,$ip));
  $row = $q->fetch();
  //timer check

  if ($row === null || $row['claimed_at'] <= $time - ($settings['timer'] * 60)) {
    $amount = intval($rewards['random_reward']);


    $response = pay($username,$amount,"Earnings from XXX, payed through Xapo!");
    try{
      $message=$response->message;

      if(!$response->success){
        $success = 0;
      }
      else{
        $success = 1;
      }

Woah! Thank you, I'm starting and this was very helpful..

So, should I use "nastyhosts.com" bot protection from Faucetbox?

And what about captcha dificulty? 1 captcha level 5(normal) is good? or 2 captchas is a better idea?
I know it's cheated by real persons, so a easy level or normal is the same thing.. and a hardest is really, really bad for faucet users.. Do this bot/sites(2captcha etc) can solve 2 captchas in the same page?

How long ads sites take for pay? I tested a-ads and they paid after 2,3 days longer, but dont know about the others.. same?

Thx again
Use a good hosting site like doteasy.com . It might be more expensive but you will have for at least a year to start making money and i guarantee you will make your money back. Use the normal level for captcha, you don't want people aggravated and not come back. I would suggest using  an Xapo Faucet instead of Faucetbox, less bots attack Xapo . A-ads will pay you quicker if you get more traffic. Every 10,000 satoshi you get it will pay you . So its not A-ads that distinguish the payment rate but your traffic .

go here for Creating an Xapo account------http://xapo.com/r/T7WH3RD
I'm still working with my plan to create my own faucet and get some profit from I know you already spoon feed all the details that is needed to make it successfully  I'm just wondering might be possible for you to create also a youtube channel for better understanding, might be a good advertisement too right, just curious to give my honest opinion maybe you can also earn from it if many of a newbie like me watch the video. thanks for this informative thread that you open for us.
nice idea... i will consider doing it this weekend

 Sad Is it normal?

real persons solve the captchas... the bot send requests to sites like 2captcha.com and real persons fill for money(0,45$max each 1000 lol) and I think they send back to bot, and the bot send to server.

Nowadays Funcaptcha and Google Adsense aren't  an option for faucet owners.

AdSense is fine if you're running a site with content on it. And if you plan to grow your faucet's user base, this is a core part of it regardless.
I though you need to read these topics first

 https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/adsense-banning-faucets-again-1467259


https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1471100.0;topicseen 

First link pretty much said what I said. In fact, here's a quote from it: "a faucet with ads only and no content is just like a PTC (paid-to-click) site which is against adsense TOS." Like I said, it needs content.

Now, the second is interesting... "Violation explanation:

INCENTIVIZED TRAFFIC: As stated in our program policies, AdSense publishers are not permitted to place Google ads on sites with content related to programs offering incentives to click links or ads, read emails, or surf other websites."

I'd argue that this is incorrect, though. A faucet isn't paying people to click ads. There's NO incentive whatsoever for even clicking them. There's more to the story than the person is sharing, I'm sure.

While I would normally say faucet info is useless... this is immensely helpful to those that want to get involved. And even better is the fact that a lot of this is entirely relevant for non-faucet crypto sites as well. Huge +1 for this.

Thank you for this compiled guide!
It's very nice to know that there are options to monetized the faucets.
But in my opinion, we should not make our faucets a source of income, this is the main problem why many of the faucet owners are ad farming.
