What advice can you give to someone who wants to earn bitcoins online ,however not through faucets
If you don't in some faucets website because it give you small amount of bitcoin then why don't you try to join in some signature campaign where you can earn more than in faucets where you can get up x10 in your daily when you are in faucet then hold it until you reach your minimum then make some trade so that you can grow your money 
that is the same advice that im giving to those who wants to earn more bitcoin. i usually suggest them to do trading but they need first to do some research and study regarding trading and the coins they will buy because there are lots of shit coins nowadays.
