sorry but I dont understand, me as a faucet owner will profit from referral programs on other websites? what do you mean? that I will get more traffic and more traffic = profit?

thanks

Like, you can display other sites for users to earn on and get a profit from referral links. Also, more traffic enables you to get more profit. The more views you get, the higher the chance that users will click ads and make you money.

does running a faucet really gives profit?

As said in the OP, chances are you will not get rich from running a faucet, but you could probably get some profit. Depending on your rewards and the amount of traffic, you could maybe have a bit of profit from nothing but advertising. You mostly get profit from referral programs on other faucets or websites.

I will have my reservations, based on how they run their own "faucet" and how they answer questions based on "fairness" and "transparency" See these discussions :

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=930724.new#new

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=932063.20

https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/still-no-one-has-claimed-the-25-million-satoshi-prize-thats-65-916117

How can you sell a "faucet" to someone else, if your own "faucet" has problems with transparency?

Look at the price, everyone else is asking on this forum, for basically the same thing, and decide for yourselve.

isnt the price is too much? Tongue

Yes, it is insanely overpriced and I feel deeply sorry for anyone that invests in it.

Updated with two new captcha providers and a the hosting provider suggested before.

Most people, with limited "programming" skills should not go for these pre-scripted options, if they do not have someone, who can verify, that no "backdoors" are built in, for someone to sweep your coins or hijack your faucet.

People are VERY creative in scamming people out of their well earned money. Wink

While this is true, most big faucet scripts are posted on the forums and checked by developers. I mean, that backdoor in the old MyFaucet script where a certain email would get double rewards was uncovered almost straight after it was posted.

Do you know how to make a php code to perform the same transaction ??

Using the Blockchain API, this is how I imagine the code would look. Just typing this off the top of my head, so there may be a few errors.

Code:

//Create a two dimensional array for your addresses, with Bitcoin addresses as keys and the amount (in satoshi) as values.
//Will send 0.0001BTC to both of those adresses
$addresses = array('1PNmymEXA8mGZfdsWAWmicJPTXEf5KAzTG' => '10000', '1QBCMPPnAJoaxgeKSnnLCHDLMQvD53ZUmQ' => '10000');

//JSON encode the array, as the API requires it
$jsonadresses = json_encode($adresses);

//Get the contents of the API url, this alone will send the coins.
$url = https://blockchain.info/merchant/$guid/sendmany?password=$main_password&second_password=$second_password&recipients=$jsonaddresses
$furl = file_get_contents($url);
//JSON decode the response for use.
$jurl = json_decode($furl);

//Get values from response
$message = $jurl['message'];
$txhash = $jurl['tx_hash'];

This is obviously barebones sort of stuff, and you should look on the API page linked above for information on how to fill in the url and such.

yes referral sorry for the confusion. but what is your opinion about referral option? does it make sense to add it?

Yes in that it drives more traffic to your site as it gives people an incentive to share your site, but it does obviously cost more. It doesn't cost too much more, so is good to have it imo.

I'm unsure what you all mean by affiliate options. If you mean a referral option then I'm pretty sure every script on the list includes this.

thanks a lot for this detailed explanation. is there any reason why you left out the affiliate option? most faucets are using it

Yes, why no affiliate option? The program at JackpotFaucetNetwork comes with it...

I'm not sure, but I think that might come as part of the faucet software in Part 2.
