I engage regularly in collecting cryptocurrencies from faucets, especially bitcoin faucets. I consume the shortlinks there a lot but now, I want to be a shortlinks provider. When I mean shortlinks, I don’t mean PTC ads but the shortlinks from faucets where you need to click several pages before the final destination because that is what most URL shorteners like shrinkme.io and ctr.sh provide.
I want to ask:
1. Is it a profitable business? I see that most URL shorteners give a $3 minimum for 1000 views while faucets charge $1 for 1000 views except for some high-end faucets. But I don’t know much about other aspects of the business. So, if anyone can advise me on whether it is profitable, I would be happy to know.
2. Which faucets accept applications from people like me to provide them with shortlinks? On most faucets I am a part of, they only provide that one gives them PTC ads but they have shortlinks sections. I have written to those faucets on how I can provide them with shortlinks but there is no reply from their end. I am beginning to believe this is not a transparent business or what? If anyone can give me the link to a faucet that accepts shortlinks applications I would be happy. I will check the rates out and decide if I can participate.
That is all for now. I don’t know much about the business so if anyone can advise me I would be happy to start it immediately.
