Hi Everyone... I am a super noobie in anything related to Bitcoins. My Son is currently unemployed for 8 months. {I helped him for most of this period, but he wants to do something on his own} Our whole family tried to get him work, but things are very hard, and he is still very inexperienced. Is there a way for him to get about $1 a day from these "FREE" bitcoin sites? {I told him, I would match everything he get, from doing this} He does all his work I give him during the day, but he needs to do something to keep him going in idle times, when he is not looking for work. I see most people says, mining Bitcoins as a individual is not worth it, because of power cost {And we life in a country, with the highest cost of electricity in the world} Please do not post "negative" comments, like...."Tell him to get a real job...etc. etc" {Believe me, we tried} Any positive and constructive advice, would be very much appreciated. Ps... I pay for his internet bandwidth and electricity

If you go to absolutely every site, you maybe can average $1/week. If you're really lucky.
One question, does he own a minecraft account? I may know a way he can average $2/week, depending on how much time he spends.
But "Free" bitcoin sites don't pay out very highly, so I wouldn't expect $1/day.
BUT
(I know the following may belong in the altcoin section) some other crypto currencies are easier and more profitable to mine, and you can exchange those coins into LTC, BTC and others. I have a friend who said he mined with a few $20 usb miners from eBay, and got the full return on investment, trading from the coin to LTC, since the rates are better.
Look around and alive but small crypto currencies, and then research on the internet and eBay. I'm sure that you could make SOME money, but no guarantees, like everything.
And keep the air moving around the miners! They get HOT.
I hope this helps!

Thanks Yakamoto for such quick reply.
Would it help, if he use this with sites, that pay him for clicking on Ads? {Some of these sites pay fairly well}
Thanks again for your reply.

I doubt you'll get very much at all from faucet or pay per click sites. A few cents maybe. If he's at a computer all day there's plenty of jobs available that people pay in bitcoins. Check on other at the services section. Maybe he could help out with a customer service role. What experience does he have? There are other sites where you can advertise your skills.

I am from a country in Africa. {Not a lot of jobs here}
He does some odd jobs {pizza delivery etc...} Not enough to stand on his own legs tho.. And not a constant income source. {Only when he is needed}
He needs something to reward him for his efforts..
Thanks for replies everyone.

This is the best explanation of faucets I've heard. So does he play minecraft? If so, pm me or whatever it is. I'm quite new. Not a lot of faucets pay out really well though. Get him to make an account on here, work his posts up to minimum full member, and he can get about 0.008 BTC-ish for 50 posts per month, using signature advertisements. As he increases his member status, he can get up to 0.13 BTC with some offers I've seen. That way he can become engaged in the community AND get paid quite good amounts. And don't trust every site. Some of them are malicious. This website called MacObserver has a list of clean (Non-malicious) and working faucets, and many of them work, as I have tried them out myself. Good luck!

There are many things you can do to earn money/bitcoins.
I read about some people looking for reports to blog/twitter/facebook bitcoin related news. So, ask your son to gather tons of news about bitcoins, post them on his own blog and then approach those people for work paid in bitcoins.
If you have a digital camera, even simple ones, take photos of people/buildings/senery around your area in Africa and sell them online. They don't even have to look beautiful. The photos just need to be real.
If your son can draw on a computer, he can design logos/posters/flyers in your local area. With some experience and a portfolio, he can start grabbing jobs here for bitcoins.
Actually, why are you asking for him? He should be the one who should take the initiative to post here asking for ways to earn bitcoin.

Honestly, my advise would be to try and get him further education if anyhow possible. Maybe see if he qualifies for scholarships in Europe.
As far as I see it the only ways out of such struggles are being good at sports or having a very good education.
As far as bitcoins go: Making a dollar a day from just clicking ads and using faucets and stuff is not possible.
What can earn you several dollars a day is using sites that pay for solving tasks like tasks4dollars.com or dollarrewards.com (talking about the Crowdflower stuff they offer). Those two in particular also payout in other ways than bitcoin. I've been using them as I had time for over a year now. They are administrated by the same guy and he's been very reliable with payments so far. But it can be tedious and tiresome work that can take some hours until you cross the dollar line. The most effective tasks take you about 5 minutes to solve and pay 5 cent on average.
Better than any of the other stuff, even better than mining nowadays if you don't have thousands of dollars for initial investment.
Combine that with some of the signature campaigns in this forum.
But it is all no real substitute for real work. So I am back at suggesting looking to find better education for your son.

Forget about the faucets. Sell goods or provide services (writing, translation, etc.) to others for bitcoin. Join a sig program when you reach member status.

Stop that. How can he ever learn to take care of himself if he gets everything done for him? The best you can do is: let him figure it out, take a step back and be there if he asks(!) for help. It shouldnt be you asking for ways here, but him. Because he needs a job/money not you. And face it, you wont be around forever, so he gotta learn to take care of himself anyway.

How old is he? I think It's really easy to get $1 a day around the internet but you need to be nimble thought. There many ways. Firstly Is he is good at doing anything? If yes mentioned It here what he does good so It would be easier to give suggestions to you. Easiest thing is to do what you are good at and have experience In. Everything can be profitable around the internet from for example playing online games, selling virtual stuff that needs time to get, giving some kind of service to other people that you know well and able to do. Check the service section on this forum you'll see some examples there.

Is there a way for him to get about $1 a day from these "FREE" bitcoin sites? {I told him, I would match everything he get, from doing this} Ok say you use a faucet that pays 0.00000460 per hour. It would mean 0.0001104 per day. 0.003312 per month. This is about 1.43$ per month. If you become member on forum, write posts, and put signature you can get anywhere from 0.0001 (0.04 USD) to 2.4 BTC. (1030.35 USD) He can offer services on this forum for money. Like 1000 twitter follower, or logos

Or this.

He is sitting next to me, while i am chatting on this forum. Involved in everything. He left school a couple of years ago, so he is noobie in most things. He is also in a wheelchair, so most of the things he does, is exceptional anyways. {I want to see most people deliver pizzas in a wheelchair, as fast as him.} Would just be better, if we can get something for him to do from home. He is also not fast at typing.. so that route is not viable. Thanks for the rest of the comments everyone.

Pitty that this site below is a "scam" site. Would have been a viable option, if they paid, what they claimed. https://paidtoclick.ca/

A lot of sites are giving free Bitcoins or will pay for simple tasks like liking their web pages. There are also some ways to earn online, owning a computer and having an internet connection could help you or your son earn some bucks.
