Streamline Your Time

  If you read lesson 1 a week ago or so, then hopefully you have set up your document and perhaps a spreadsheet of links for faucets. So now the goal is to hit as many faucets as you can in your time allowed. Here are a few things to consider when making your list.

List Faucets Wisely

List faucets that would gain you the most in the time allowed. If a faucet pays you 250 satoshi every 5 minutes. Considering the time it takes for you to go back to the tab and fill in the wallet address and caption. You can visit that site 5 times in a 30-minute run. For 1250 satoshi. Nice site, and it should be at the top. But if I have a site that pays me 1300 satoshi every 8 hours. That site would be first on my list. Not visited again for a while. I would make sure to grab that 1300 guaranteed rather than 250 of a possible 1250 satoshi.

Remember in lesson one, we talked about distractions and how they can kill your goal quickly. If you miss 5 minutes, you miss 250 satoshi.

Go Back to Faucets Often.

Remember, you will have faucets that pay every 15, 10, and  5 minutes. Keep those tabs open and go back to them often. In a 30-minute run, you have to hit a faucet within the first minutes of its counter; a 5-minute faucet has to be used in your first 5 minutes of your run, or you lose a chance to use it. With a 10-minute faucet, you have 10 minutes from the start to use it. 15-minute one, well, you get the point.

Balance.

Okay, so you have your list. If it’s a 30-minute run, list it as short. 6 maybe 7 faucets you hit constantly, and some long timer ones. Let’s balance it. First, go for long-term guaranteed faucets. 1 in the first round. Then hit your short timers like the 5-minute ones. Once you hit 2 or 3 five-minute timers, you need to go for 1 or 2 of the mid timers, like a 10 or 15-minute one. By the time you are done there, you should be ready for round two. Hitting the 5-minute timers again. If they are not ready, go for a long timer like 1 hour or more that pays high. Then go back.
Fit in the long timers between the 5-minute timers and the mid timers when you are waiting.

Don’t Fall in Love With a Faucet.

Faucets change. They add more time or reduce them. They change their payout. Some often run out of funds. I have faucets I like to use, but when they just don’t hold up to new faucets I find. I let them go. You need to, too.

One of my favorite faucets paid 300 satoshi every 15 minutes and was fun. Now they are at 750 satoshi a day. Still fun, but I don’t use them. I check on them once a week to see if they have improved. If a faucet is less valuable than others on your list, let it go. Your time is your investment and is valuable.

Make goals and beat records.

With practice, you will have 5 to 7 tabs open constantly, and others you will open, use, and close. You will get into a flow and have fun. So now push yourself. Set a goal and reach it. If you don’t do it in the time you set, try to keep going till you reach it. If you pass your goal, go for your personal best.

In one sample run I did for writing this, I earned 14,990 satoshi in 30 minutes on faucets. Of course, I was inputting data for this article as well, so that slowed me down. But later, I went and beat that because I knew I could.

I will be giving a step-by-step on my site of what sites and in what order I visited them on 10/28/15, if you would like details on how this works. I set up a 30-minute run. Easy to maintain and stay focused. But I can also show you how a 1-hour run looks. Just more of the long timers fit in between the short timers and mid timers.
