Buy a coin that peak your interest and hold on to it my favorite is solarcoin/litecoin.

Grab some coins from faucets -> trade altcoins or buy GHS on CEX.IO but at the beginning you must read read read

First of all you should completely read https://bitcoin.org/ and learn how Bitcoin protocol works. When you have knowledge, install Bitcoin Core to your pc and sign-up one of the BTC trade sites to buy some Bitcoin. Invest only what you can afford and believe in Bitcoin. Don't stop reading and learn new things.

Do some bitcoin faucets to earn a little bitcoin
then buy some or participate in signature campaigns to earn more

Bitcoin is a currency. Meaning it's exactly like money. And money is built on trust.

Earn the trust of the people and keep it together. Don't scam or even think about it.
With the trust and reputation you earn, you'll get a wider audience for what you can offer, and eventually
a bigger profit

Good luck!

Welcome.
The best start for learning about bitcoin IMO is the Coindesk's newbie guides http://www.coindesk.com/information/ which covers many different aspects.

Advice: There are so many scammer, and troller here on internet. Be careful, use escrow and don't believe everything you read on internet

Don't trust anyone in this forum with trades, always use escrow! Read the satoshi white paper about bitcoin and visit the sub reddit (/r/bitcoin) for some news updates. Enjoy the currency and spend it, don't just hold it!
