I wasted a lot of time on faucets, so no it's not worth your time. Find better ways to get them.

That's the problem, you used -a lot- of time on faucets. They're not around to provide a income.

Faucets are there to provide a income to the site owner (advertising revenue). Wink

I doubt they make enough to quit work.

Freebitco.in makes 0.1 or 0.2 BTC per day, if I am not mistaken. Errr now its 0.175 BTC per day.

As I mentioned in my above post, that is how much the site makes for just the bottom ad.
You can find a few more google ads on the page, and so the total ad revenue should be much much higher.

How much does google pay out per impression?

I prefer Zakir over Muhammed when mentioning me!

Yes, you are right. Most of the faucet owners want to get profit from their faucet, they aren't entirely honest with us. I am not telling about all owners. I hope a better faucet will come soon.
Kindly,

You can find the statistics here: http://adbit.co/?a=Advertise
Other faucets have lower rates, such as 0.007 BTC per day or 0.00011512 BTC per day.
Say you own freebitco.in then you make ~ 5.25 BTC per month, which is about 3365.99 USD.
Depending on where you live, it is enough or not enough. Of course, I do not mean to say that if you open a faucet it would run like this, but it could be profitable.

I wonder if faucets favor natural monopolies. Advertisers would be willing to pay more to advertise on a popular faucet. The more ad revenue the faucet owner receives, the higher the payouts. And the higher the payouts, the more popular that faucet gets, and so on.

You can find a couple of ads on http://freebitco.in/.
No idea how much the site owner get from the google ads, but he can get 0.175 BTC (~$115) a day for just the bottom ad (468 * 60px).

Not sure if that is enough to quit their jobs.
