Used this also, you've got my love!

http://www.bestfreebitcoin.com

The most popular listing of free bitcoin websites for new bitcoin users. It contains several affiliate links, and generates a bit of revenue each month. Not hard to maintain, but I'm occupied with other things, so wouldn't mind selling for a bit of cash to free up some personal time.

Last month: ~33k visits, 100% organic search traffic

Email "adam at cameralends" if you're interested in it.

Which library/plugin you are using to take screenshot of urls ?

I am working on a similar app based on Ruby on Rails and these days searching for a proper solution for taking screenshot of an url .

Chain Reaction iOS/Android game: https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/chain-reaction-connect-dots/...

Makes ~$1500+ in revenue on a monthly basis. Pretty low maintenance, just add levels every other week to keep engagement (~2 hours a month of work). 2600+ reviews, average 4.5 stars.

Box It: https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/box-it!-dodge-the-dots-free/...

Another game, jezzball clone. 200+ 4.5 stars. ~$300 per month revenue. Can be much bigger than it is.

Started Instamotor.com with my partners and we're selling b/c we'd rather take the money now and put it into Instamotor than wait every month to get incremental value.

email in profile.
