How to earn my first bitcoin online

[jessica23]

Hello everyone I have just got into this bitcoin world and I like the idea about a digital currency. I have been surfing around the internet to gather more information about how to get started earning bitcoins online. My first goal is that I want to earn my first bitcoin just to see that it is actually possible with my own eyes.

So far I've used a couple of online services to earn and my income so far is: 0.02608
I would like suggestions on how to make more so I can reach my goal. The amount i've earned so far is strictly from online services. I've read a bit about mining but I haven't found a software and got it to work yet. If you know of any simple mining softwares I would also appreciate your help.

Thank you for taking the time to read this post.

There is a tournament every hour around the clock at sealswithclubs.eu that costs nothing and gives the winner .05BTC. Fair warning though, the minimum withdrawal is .1BTC so you'll need to win twice or run it up at a different game.

Write a (good) blog and ask readers for paying it.

Ok, I post one more idea to get unbanned;-)

Just buy a small capital and start trading the coins you bought.

This one causes some controversy, but one way is by using http://btc4free.com/ . It is a website where you can get bitcoins by completing surveys, trial offers, purchase offers and referring people. There is some debate over weather this can be called "free", but you get the point. Surveys pay varying amounts but I am in the UK and all the ones I can see pay 62 mBTC, there are no trial offers which are available to me but there are a couple purchase ones paying around 200 mBTC. The surveys usually add mBTC to your account quite quickly, but occasionally they don't. The easiest way to get Bitcoins using this site is referring people as each time someone you have refereed completes a survey, you get 25 mBTC. You also get a bonus 100 mBTC for signing up, but there is a catch in the fact that you need to earn 1 Bitcoin before you can cash out.

I am in the process of providing one more solution to this problem - it is pre-alpha at this moment but is rapidly progressing.

If you have professional experience (or are considered highly skilled) in any of the following I would be willing to pay you in bitcoins (at reasonable UK freelancer rates) for your work:

* writing marketing copy
* developing marketing strategies for driving traffic to a site
* writing blog articles on technical subjects
* software development in Java or Ruby
* creating Balsamiq mockups based on solid UX principles

The workflow would be: I give you a task, you discuss and complete it, I review it and once accepted I pay you for your time. The tasks will be tightly scoped and clear and requiring a few hours effort.

a quick google search turned up "bitcoin jobs" had a bunch of freelance work that paid in bitcoins. Might be worth it. mostly webdev stuff tho.

You could trade on BTC-e.com and sell high buy low. That's how I make my money.

The other option is to improve or borrow the hardware used to mine the coins.  Maybe start up a circle of friends that want to try as well and set up an agreement sharing hardware to build each other up.

best bet is to invest some money and trade

You will be disappointed to find out that collecting a lot of small transaction makes them difficult to spend, at least at the current value.
It's like collecting tons of cents and wanting to buy something for $100 in a shop with them.
You may still collect them and hope for an high value increase ^^

I've read a bit about mining but I haven't found a software and got it to work yet. If you know of any simple mining softwares I would also appreciate your help.

Forget mining. You need special hardware for that.

I have never earned bitcoin but I buy it and earn some profits when it goes up.
