I heard a lot of opinions on this forum saying they are not profitable, maybe are just trying to stop other faucets from opening. Thanks, i'll try to boost my faucet then.
Many people think they'll make tons of money if they just run the stock script, put ten different ad networks on it and submit it to our list. That's not how it works and that's why so many people complain about it. Our script is just a bare minimum to get you running, so you need some html/css/js skills to customize it (or pay someone for that), you need to actively and regularly advertise it in many different ways (twitter, ads, forums, other faucets list, rotators). You must make sure it's actually pleasant to use and not assume that you can annoy your users with popups etc. just because you're sending them coins. Also you can't just assume that you'll make profits right away. My first faucet took 5 months to break even (I honestly did it just to popularize Bitcoin, so I didn't care). You need to be patient.
In other words: yes, about 75% of faucets goes dry after a few weeks. But the other 25% keeps going and gets bigger and bigger. It's all up to you which one your faucet will be.
If you have no real experience with running a website that needs to keep it's users, then don't expect any profits. If running a faucet would be such a piece of cake, then we would just start hundreds of them ourselves and wouldn't bother with FaucetBOX.com. Still I recommend trying even if just for the experience, you can learn a lot
