i have several faucet sites few years ago , it was full of benefit . you got a good audience and also better ads rates with tiny amount only as a capital , really worth that time . but nowadays i don't know if the situation remain the same , even with the higher bitcoin price , the faucet owner might have to adjust the rewards from faucet. really have no idea if there is still a lot of people interested in faucet?

Most of those who visit these faucet sites are relatively new users. Experienced users seldom visit these sites, as they know that doing so is a waste of time and effort. So if Bitcoin is able to attract a lot of new users, then the faucet owners will be able to earn more money. If not, they will never get ROI.

yes if the rewards is higher than every other faucet sites, you can also promote your faucet site like some weekly raffles to users , I myself sometimes visiting faucets with high rewards or having some jackpot bonuses to users it will attract more visitors.

one people that makes users happy to visit a faucet site because the faucet is have a great reward and a simple design and minimalist. so do not put too much ads if you want to get a lot of users

The hardest part, to make your own faucet, is to invastigate a lot of resources on advertising. To build a new faucet that's not a big deal , the most difficult side of that work is to promote and bring people to your site.

Hi,

I have a question regarding your own BTC faucet. Is it profitable to run it in 2017?
I was thinking to run it via WordPress.
What initial investment is needed?

Yes it is very much profitable for the community like me who is a beginner only. I don't have any idea about in word press, just the things I know which is much profitable was to save some bitcoin for now then do the trade and buy some few altcoin.

you are kinda right about it, but in order to attract people onto your website you need to have a decent pay rate and for that you need to put a lot of ads in the website and if there will be a lot of ads people won't like it, that's like a vicious circle.

Yes, just need some costs, but then it will generate passive income. The main interest of advertisers, who will place ads on the site.

are you planning to use 99's wordpress plugin for your faucet?
his plugin is great.but now you will have to adjust the payout almost everyday
bitcoin is volatile as hell and we never know what happens 9th of March,it could go either way
starting a faucet in such an unstable environment is not advised

yes you can make some profit from a faucet still,but you MUST have adsense on your site,
otherwise your earnings will be substantially reduced-bitcoin ad networks cannot cut it yet (unless you can bring hundreds of thousands visitors to your site)
in general faucets don't bring enough money to be a source of income and take up loads of time to maintain

In the last year maybe faucets could keep profitable, nowadays without adsense support, its hard to pay well and keep the claimers interested and active. But there are few bitcoin networks paying with bitcoin, there are too many rules and restrictions, and you have one extra problem bots, soo to have a good faucet you will need around 0,25-1 btc to start and try to keep alive, since you are competing with others and you need to balance income with payouts, but if you lucky you can maybe earn 0,05-0.10 btc montly.

Yeah that's right adsense was the main source of income but there's nothing we can do now. In order to start your faucets you may need minimum investment of 2 btc and I would recommend you to pay 50-70 saroshi every 5-10 min as that will give you more views to your ads. And in terms of network until you don't reach 100k alexa rank you will mostly be in loss after that you can apply for melow ads.

The thing is that looks impossible to keep such reward for tinny time, long faucets wont pay more then 200-400 satoshis daily, but people wont use them if they can earn 800 daily with those 4-10 minutes rewards, but the faucet will die instead keep sharing health. Faucets wont resist further atleast is the way i see those, the gold moments has gone for admin and supporters.

I understand i was just giving an idea and if you see in long run it may work or it won't work at all. If a site gives this much of course many users will visit the site or let's change the time to every 20 min. When many people will visit you can get some good rates for advertising. But i do agree with you that faucets are dead even the famous ones, and after google adsense i think it is technically over for them.

Newbies are really happy when they are visiting faucet and getting satoshi on it and then uses that into gambling hahaha this is my attitude when i was a newbie i was remembered what i just did. Faucet that has good reward good affliate program can gain visitors to earn on faucet websites.

I think the hardest thing in running a faucet is to keep the bots out.
Bots steal your money and they create bad traffic. That reduces your already low income from ads, because nearly nobody wants to pay for bad traffic.
In my eyes faucets are a failed experiment.

it would still be not profitable, you cannot make the rewards too big because you would get no profit of the adds while at the same time if the rewards are the same no one would use your faucet.

Of course it is. Make sure that you use seo on that and advertise it with good social engineering skills , make your design good not only design but of course your method on how people will have some interest to visit and get satoshi on your website. Wordpress i read something on it wordpress hacked right?

P.S
Find a good ads where they are paying high and make sure that you can get your revenue back with some good profit

GOOD LUCK.

If you are planning to give away higher awards make sure you get the revenue back with proper advertisement and with faucets we get things limited because google is not interested to work with faucet which is a blow for every faucet owners who had their major share of profits through google.

Although I think it is not profitable any more, but it can generate some revenue, because some Bitcoin earners are still interested in Bitcoin faucets, those mostly are the newcomers to Bitcoin. From other side, if you would like to run a faucet, you should wait until Bitcoin price stabilize.

it depends on how many advertisement you have on your Bitcoin Faucet and how many people are going to use your faucet but I don't know what number of visit is needed for you to consider it profitable and as far as I know many users are nowadays are not getting interested to use a faucet so probably it is not going to work successfully unless you will offer a good reward different than other faucet sites .

You're right, in order for this project to be profitable, you need to attract a lot of advertisers. In addition, you need to come up with a good environment that will attract users

I think that is a problem not pda amount of reward on the faucet but innovations are you doing on your site so different from the others. and of course you have to find advertising that is profitable and pays with a great rate

most bitcoin users would not tend to waste of their time on collecting very small amounts on faucets,so it would not profitable.

I disagree. First, there are many kids these days who want to have thier own coins and they use faucets because they are the only chance to get BTC for those kids. And it doesn't matter how old the kids are if they are generating enough traffic for a site to sell places for advertising. Second, I heard some people manage to collect a decent amount of Satoshis per day using bots. So, bitcoin faucets will be always popular to some extent.

if youre faucet site reward under 100 satoshi is never visitor visit youre facuet

I think no, even faucet's reward is too low (below 100 satoshi) you can still get visitors to your site but not that much from higher paying faucet one.
If you say never, I think you should try it for prove your sentence.

yeah, there may be some visitors only. because the reward is not too big. especially nowthere are many faucet sites in internet and mutual competitiveness to get more visitors and earn a profit
