It was only a matter of time before AdSense notice your faucet,fortunately your account is not banned.These measures are necessary if you want to keep this faucets live.I hope you'll find new and stable sources of funding and that you will be able to increase the minimum reward.75 satoshi per 60 minutes is not very attractive but I see you have very nice number of visitors
Thank you for the support as always, Lucius. We need more people like you on this forum
That said, I recommend everyone on here to check out
gameofbitcoins.com if you need a really high quality faucet list / rotator. I actually use it myself quite a bit.
So, all of this is pretty unfortunate. Personally, I'm not very happy with the way things are on my faucets right now:
1) They're cluttered with ads and I'm forced to use pop-unders that are sometimes a bit risque and sketchy (but the ad network guarantees absolutely no malware). I've seen them myself: The Windows alerts w/sounds, borderline porn sites, etc. They're annoying as hell, but are actually allowing me to keep the faucets up and running until I can find some alternatives.
2) The minimum reward payouts aren't the greatest, but they aren't the worst either. Also, there's always that "slim" chance of hitting the big ones (50k, 100k, 250k).
3) My future plans for LeakyBitcoins are uncertain at this point. I really wanted to accomplish everything I listed before in the roadmap (
https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.15905601 ), but it will be difficult now that AdSense went away. Sucks..
Anyways, I really need to keep a close eye on things right now. I have yet to collect any actual net profit (mostly waiting on Google & Solve Media to release it) and have so far invested a whopping 1.40288517 BTC + hosting costs out of my pocket in this little venture. I'm not a rich person by any means, but I was willing to take the risk
On a more positive note, I'm going to be hosting the contest I talked about very soon. Hopefully we can get more people on the forum to chime in with their entries, comments, advice... anything really
Let me work out the details and then I'll post an announcement.
You're welcome bkxpress2015 and thanks for the nice words
Unfortunately these days situation with faucets are pretty bad,many are without funds and others decrease their rewards.I have not seen such a decline for quite some time.We can only hope that it will be better in the future.
I see you have invested some money in your project,it is unfortunately the risk that you took but I hope that the good work and persistence eventually pay off for you.
Finished with any website that has a pop up which locks my browser demanding I install a chrome extension.
It was the same action like one of those ransomware adverts.
Not being harsh here, I did not mind the pop unders till this happened.
Personally I have never had a problem with such things on faucets.If you have adequate protection it should stop any attempt to infect your computer.Good antivirus+firewall and Malwarebytes Premium in my case doing a great job for now.
