What is a fair rate for this kind of work?

    A client of mine recently told me that he would like to hire me to type in certain keywords and click on certain Google ads every day for him. This would be a long-term job and would only take between 15 minutes a day. However, he and I have no idea as to what a fair rate would be to do this for him every day long-term. Can anyone give me any suggestions as to what he should pay me for this?

    Thanks.

    You mean he wants you to steal money from honest advertisers? What is your integrity worth?

    I'd say 1-3 dollars a day.

    That is called Click Fraud and you shouldn't do it. I stopped liking PPC for this reason.

    No,don't work for it coz its illegal and adsense will ban your friend account anytime when they found out.
    Its not working this way coz go0gle is smart enough to catch you in red handed.

    why would you try to steal from honest advertisers?

    it's so so much easier to just create some quality content and let it run on autopilot....

    Don't even re-consider. Just discard the thought, if you will take our opinions. I was literally going to launch what would be termed as the World's Biggest Underground AdSense Click Fraud System, but somewhere I realised the truth and scrapped the idea. It was one hell of a fool-proof master plan that would take Google ages to crack . Just to give you some numbers, it would make me around $150/day everyday (and the same to 29 other people). What you're talking about will get the AdSense account banned in a day, which means the idea doesn't even stand a chance.

    I'd suggest you to focus on something else which can make you a lot of money and you can sleep at night, free of guilt.
