The process of creating a crane
Consider a step-by-step mechanism for creating and connecting a crane.
Until the creation of a faucet, which, in fact, is a regular site, you should take care of where it will be located, that is, purchase a place on the server with the necessary software, in the official terminology - hosting. Since after creating a Bitcoin faucet, this will allow customers to visit your resource at any time convenient for them, without experiencing any restrictions. Renting a good hosting monthly can be about 120-150 rubles. Some resources, such as Mchost, offer to use a promotional code for a certain period of time (usually 2-3 months) and test hosting for free.
Next, you should assign an address to the future crane. The free address will look like this: faucet name service name.ru. The paid address looks more interesting, which is also easier to remember: the name of the faucet.ru. Its cost will be approximately 200 rubles per year. Before you start creating your Bitcoin faucet, you need to decide on the address option.
The work on creating a site can be carried out using the FaucetBox resource, which is considered a well-deserved leader in the micropayments segment. It gives you the opportunity to use a special script for free to create your own faucet without an initial investment. It should be noted that in addition to FaucetBox, such applications offer customers resources such as Micro Wallet and Paytoshi.
Using the file manager, we load the script that was downloaded from the site. The dispatcher is located in the personal account on the hosting server. Before you create your Bitcoin faucet for free and start downloading the script, it is advisable to make sure that you become the owner of the latest version so that in the future there will be no problems with the creation and operation of the site. In addition, new versions provide more features and have an improved interface.
Unpack the downloaded archive and upload the files to the hosting. It should be noted that individual hosting file managers cannot upload folders. Then the downloaded archive will have to be uploaded directly to the hosting and unpacked there, since such a function is necessarily present on every hosting site. Uploading files is best done in the public_html root archive.
Before you can continue building your Bitcoin faucet, you will need to set up a database. This process is not difficult, however, it is performed in different ways on each resource. The option responsible for creating such a database is usually located on the control panel or in the user menu. When creating a database, you must specify its name and password, as well as a user login. You will need this information later, so keep it in a safe place.
After all the above operations are completed, we can assume that the first stage of work is completed. But since the site has not yet started working and generating income, the creation of a Bitcoin faucet cannot be considered complete. You need to make the appropriate settings. Therefore, we move on to the next stage of work.
