What's the advertising revenue for this faucet?  Would we have to register with those advertisers, or is everything handed over?  Is the website promoted anywhere?  Any tie-ins with venues such as faucetbox?

The highest bid till now is 0.08. Yeah you have rto egister with these advertisers and athen dd this domain. The website is added on almost all popular  faucet rotators/lists. FaucetBox stopped its services couple of months ago

Set some rules please.
- Till what day and what hour (and what timezone) will this auction run.
- Is there a reserve price?
- What is the minimum bid increment?
- Will you provide support to the buyer for the first X period?
- Is sniping allowed?

I am interested but without clear rules I do not feel confortable to start bidding higher.

Sorry, I do not have much experience with the process involved in auctioning.

- Till tomorrow, IST, 10:00 PM
- Yeah, let's keep the reserve at 0.12
- 0.01
- For first 30 days, running a faucet is not rocket science Grin so would help whenever there is any issue.
- I do not know what does sniping means in auction, if you would please clarify, I will answer it.

Thank you for the clarification.

Sniping is the process of placing a bid in the very last second hoping the win the auction with the bid. To prevent this often a rule is set in place that extends the auction for (lets say) 15 minutes from the last bid.
So bidding at 9.59.59 extends the auction to 10.14.59. This process keeps repeating until there have been no bids for 15 minutes.

Wow, thank you for explaining sniping Smiley, I do not think anyone would bid on my faucet at the last moment Grin, but yeah if some thing like that happens then the auction would be extended for 15 more minutes until there have been no bids for 15 minutes. Auctioning is a complicated process Grin

Skepticism is good. There are a couple of reasons I am planning to sell the faucet.

1. I do not have enough time to manage.

2. With the increasing bitcoin price, the ad networks that pay in fiat is not profitable.

3. I have a deadline on February 23 to pay back a loan. I am not expecting this faucet to be sold and pay the loan, but that would be a bonus.

Like I said the profit is around 0.001 to 0.002, like $1 to $2 per day and then around $10 goes into hosting per month, and I do not have the habit of holding on to bitcoins so sometimes when the faucet is dry (bitcoin ad networks pay instantly), but other ad networks have a threshold and then I  have to convert rupee into BTC (fee included). The profit would be more if I increase the rewards and decrease the timer to 5 minutes.

Like the OP said it would be ridiculous to sell the faucet at this point especially since got approved by major bitcoin ad networks so I will wait till tomorrow, if the offer is good I will sell it or keep on running.

Probably wants to sell because he has the knowledge and expertise to create a new one. Everyone is sceptical, nobody should expect this to make them large amounts of money. However, at 2-3 months of his quoted profit per day, him wanting to cash in early isn't ridiculous.

How much profit from all your avertissements?
And how much total do tout pay your users?
Price?

I just changed the rewards three days ago, or was paying 210 satoshis every 60 miniutes, around 0.006 BTC pr day, and with additional pop ads around 0.001 to 0.002 profit per day.
Why do you want to sell your faucet if it makes profit? Need instant Bitcoins? Can you provide proofs of that earnings?
Sorry for all those questions, but I am sceptic.

almost all russian traffic and almost no (0.5%) natural search traffic. i can offer 0.05 btc if you install it on my server

If you had run a faucet you would not have mentioned Russian traffic. Every faucet user or admin knows around 90% of faucet traffic is from Russia. I had run a faucet earlier, but it was a blog and then included faucet, http://bitckerz.net, you could compare the stats between these two. The point is  the domain name says what it is, it is a BTC faucet, zero content, only ads, getting natural traffic from putting some SEO efforts is still not worth it because it is a BTC faucet.

Hi, I am selling http://btcfaucet.io, it is a bitcoin faucet with a simple design.

Total users: 35953 (about 10 to 15% of these were proxy/bad IP users, so banned some IP's, if unban them then the traffic would increased by 20 to 30%, these are human users using proxy IP's, profitable to website, but unethical in the sense why one user should get all the satoshis)

Registered at Namecheap (I had bought this time domain for $33)
Expiry: August 19, 2017
Premium DNS

Traffic sources:

Since I have been running this faucet for a few months now, it has been added to all major faucet rotators.

https://www.similarweb.com/website/btcfaucet.io

Analytics: August 23, 2016 to today



Revenue sources:

1. Mellowads (pop up)

2. Coinzilla (pop up)

3. Coinmedia

4. A-ads

5. Popads.net (optional)

6. Short.est (optional)

If you are willing to take risk then btcfaucet.io is not adsense banned and you can use adsense on the faucet.

What will you get:

1. Domain

2. Faucet script with users database

3. Faucet list (I also have a faucet list on this domain which is somewhat popular, http://btcfaucet.io/list.php)

I have not yet decided BIN
