By Reel Coverage Jul 07, 2025

How many times have you searched “how to make money online or websites that pays Nigerians daily” and been disappointed with the results?
We know how you feel, we've done the search and have found that many of the recommendations are either just not a viable means to earn extra income as a Nigerian or they are just too time consuming for a student.
To solve this problem, we decided to write this article to expose various Nigerian students (and all interested individuals) to websites they can leverage to make sustainable income, monthly.
From simple tasks like sharing links to demand tasks like writing articles, you can earn that extra income from the comfort of your home as a student in Nigeria using these websites:
INLEO
You've probably never heard this name before and that's to be expected. The reason is because INLEO is not popular but it's a platform that has enabled students across Nigeria and individuals across the world, earn extra income for doing what they already do daily: making social posts!
Yeah, that's right! The only skill you need is being able to post a thought, either as a short post, a comment to other people's posts, or maybe an article.
Whichever one it is you're best at, you can start monetizing your thoughts on INLEO.
INLEO is a social platform built on the Hive blockchain, that enables individuals to earn LEO and Hive crypto tokens for making social content. It takes 60secs to sign up and earn from day one!
But before you do that, here's what you need to expect:
Some things may sound complicated to you if you're not already knowledgeable in crypto and blockchain technology.
However, it doesn't have to be because there's a whole community that when you ask any questions at all, will come to your aid. You can trade your earned Leo and Hive tokens for USDT, which can be sold from Naira on P2P exchanges like Bybit.
But how much can you really earn?
You can earn anywhere from $50 - $100 using INLEO monthly!

Reddit
Do you have an active reddit account? If you do, you can potentially earn up to $300 monthly from any Hive-based project called “Reddit posh.”
Now don't go thinking that this is a get rich quick scheme because you need to provide value to get paid.
With reddit posh, you need to drive traffic to any website (commonly called a “frontend") of Hive-based social projects like INLEO.
Incredible right?
This means that you can earn $50-$100 making short posts or articles on INLEO and at the same time earn up to $300 promoting post or article links from INLEO. This could be your own articles or any other creators' articles links.
But why Reddit?
Reddit is one of the largest community-based social platforms, which makes it some of the best means of driving engagement. With reddit posh, you need to strategically share links from INLEO to appropriate reddit communities. When these shares earn likes, views, and comments on reddit, which typically means that reddit users click through to read those INLEO-based articles, you earn a vote from Reddit posh community accounts which earns you Hive tokens.
You can earn as much as $20 per share, depending on how well these shares perform on reddit, cool right?
Jump right in and create a hive account using INLEO, then read this post to learn more about reddit posh.
Why are these websites the best and power choices for you as a Nigerian student?
There are various reasons:
There are many Nigerians already actively using INLEO and other Hive-based social apps to earn extra income.
When you earn your tokens, nobody can take it away from you because Hive is a decentralized platform and you solely control your account.
Hive is also very welcoming, you get to experience people from around the world, so you're expected to bring positive energies, respecting everyone and the rules of the platform.
Why are the rules?
For creators:
No spam content
No AI-generated content (It's OK as a research tool, not as a content writer).
No plagiarism — you'll lose support if you do this.
And for everyone else:
Just be an honest contributor. Avoid attempting to exploit the community because that hurts Hive, as it is a decentralized economy and when you do this, Hive fights back as a community and you ruin your reputation.
