Pretty cool dad there indeed. Like the others said, don't worry about making money yet. Take what you have and learn how it works, that INCLUDES your website. Everybody is focusing on the tools here, I think you need to start the other way around personally. This is assuming you haven't already got the experience building websites and fooling with HTML. It seems like you have a couple websites up, but I'm not sure if you built them, or if you just bought them. Make sure you learn basic HTML (if you haven't already in school), how to install scripts, get comfortable with your hosting's control panel, learn how to analyze your traffic with basic web analytics (this is a biggy you shouldn't skip out on, give Piwik a try). Then spend some time with Wordpress and learn your way around the admin panel for it. Get comfortable with different themes and plugins. there's so much you can do with Wordpress. It's an ongoing learning experience and can be used as a CMS for just about any project you have in mind.
That's all stuff you should get a good grasp on before you go focusing all your energy into learning the tools in my opinion. ESPECIALLY learning to analyze your traffic. Understand where your traffic is coming from and how you canimprove that is key. It's probably a lot more fun to play around with SE NUuke and Scrapebox, but don't skip out on the core skills.
that being said, you can get into some of the good stuff at the same time. Learn your way around Scrapebox with tutorials you'll find here and on Youtube. It's a pretty simple little program and you should be good to go with it soon enough. Learn how to scrape, filter, and test your lists. Just scrape like crazy to start with.
SENuke is a little more complex, but play with it too, don't just slap together random stuff in the wizard though. Again, follow the tutorials here on how people manage their linking strategies, and most importantly try to understand why they structure their links the way they do.
Be willing to accept that you probably aren't going to make much money for a couple, maybe even a few months, but don't give up. Keep learning all that you can about how to build your sites, andhow to build a good diverse network of backlinks to your site.
Good luck, and enjoy your new toys!
