There are a wide range of websites that will pay you small amounts of money in exchange for completing certain tasks. Most of the time these so-called “faucets” involve looking at ads in one way or other.

Basically, site owners get paid when people view and interact with ads. A few websites, such as bitcoin faucets, will share some of those earnings with their visitors. What you have to do to earn your bitcoins varies from website, to website. With some, you’ll kill aliens or feed animals, with others you’ll simply watch videos or click on ads.

Be warned, however, some websites will infect you with malware and viruses.
