Sanctuary owners,
During the last week I developed a faucet to help introduce new users to biblepay. It is accessible at http://biblepayfaucet.com (http://biblepayfaucet.com)
I am seeking funding for the work I have done, the backend costs, and to ensure funding for the faucet balance
Faucet features
- Rewards BBP multiple times per day
- Rewards a random amount each time
Faucet benefits
- Promotes & introduces biblepay to users who are unable to mine or purchase through exchanges
Budget breakdown
$ figures are in CAD (Canadian Dollar)
C$0.01 / BBP calculated on January 15th 2018
Domain name: 2500 BBP this covers 1 year of expenses
Server: 21600 BBP this covers 3 months of expenses (I use vultr with backup and ddos protection)
Time to build faucet: 50000 BBP (20 hours * $25 = $500) I made the faucet from scratch not with open source script
Funding to keep the faucet full: 35900 BBP this should keep the faucet balance at close to 1000 BBP for around 3 months
Total budget requested: 110000 BBP

Thank you for your consideration and support. I have more planned in future to promote and get new biblepay users through the faucet. Please post any questions you may have.

I'm really impressed that you built that faucet from scratch! I'm not a programmer, but I can imagine that a lot of time went into coding that.
I'm pro funding this, because it looks professional and encourages users to come back again and again (because of the randomness factor in payout).

I am also working on implementing a SEO (Search Engine Optimization) strategy to capture many new users for biblepay. I will be working on this in my spare time over the next month. The plan is to target google searches similar to "how to get free bitcoins", "how to get crypto currencies", "bitcoin faucet", "where can i get free bitcoins", etc.
These are searched over 100,000 times per month https://i.imgur.com/IRewRS1.png (https://i.imgur.com/IRewRS1.png) and are highly targeted to users who want to get some crypto currency but are new to the space.
I currently have not implemented any SEO tactics on the faucet I was more focused on releasing a working product.
Why I think this will work?
I make my living from SEO and have good results currently and in the past. (millions of users from search engine results)
I think it is realistic goal to be getting 100+ unique and new users to biblepayfaucet.com through SEO daily with a high conversion ratio (10%+) to downloading the wallet and collecting from the faucet (it is giving away free money) by end of April.
I can track unique ip clicks out to "get a biblepay wallet" and compare to the ip collecting from the faucet which should be fairly accurate at determining a new biblepay user.
I will maybe create another thread in general discussion to track the progress of this.

I have tried some basic SEO things in the past, and I know how difficult it is to get your page anywhere near the top-10 on google, so it's very nice to hear you're doing this for a living. Maybe you could also help with the development of the new biblepay.org site?

I messaged SEO_Account on Bitcointalk a few days ago, no response so far,
the faucet website is saying the balance is zero
"Faucet balance is too low please try again later"
UPDATE: Just got message from SEO_Account!

Hello, is the faucet script and web site able to be revived? I think there is interest in managing in hosting it ourselves. Thanks,
