I'm 12 days into it, and gaining a ton of traffic. I would disclose adsense earnings, but that's a serious ToS violation, but lets just say the adsense earnings makes it worth it.

I'm going to guess you're new with Adsense, and don't know that before you hit the payout threshold, an AdSense reviewer will manually look at your site and suspend your account with all earnings wiped (program violation).

Sites that offer compensation programs ("pay-to" sites)

What's the policy?

The term "pay-to" refers to sites that promise payment or incentives to users who click on ads, surf the web, read emails, or perform other similar tasks. Placing Google ads on such pages may result in invalid impressions or clicks and is therefore prohibited. Similarly, sites which primarily drive traffic to or discuss pay-to services are not permitted to show ads.

Yes, faucets get suspended for this. Do you really think you're so clever, and are the first faucet that has discovered AdSense? Smiley

You're also violating multiple other adsense policies, but I won't bother listing them.


Let's look at the largest faucets who have, and still use adsense, and why they also don't get shut down.

Moonbitcoin, freebitco.in, and bitcoinzebra.

They all are violating the same rules, but they don't get banned for two reasons. They have legitimate traffic, (no bot, purchased, or network traffic), and they don't click their own ads. I have been using adsense off and on for three years now. I understand the risks, and even if I do lose adsense, this faucet is an experiment to see how they work, what works and what doesn't. I'm trying to move away from content based affiliate marketing and learning something new and showing other's what I'm doing so they can learn too.

P.S. are you planning any other online wallets, and what the hell happened over at coinchat, there's a bunch of little assholes running it now.
