Piotr, I am a purist. For me from beginning to end, if Steemit is a content site, if there should be a bot on the site, it should be a bot to sift between good and bad content, and automatically dish out rewards according to the quality level of content from the best content down to the worst in a gliding scale. As interpretation of content could be subjective, there is a clear objective distinction between crappyand good content, that is possible.
To me it should always be about good content. As I am very new, only on Steemit for a week and a half, I have 140 followers, and did 73 posts, mostly very good comments, and got paid more for the comments than the blogs, which has been noticed here and there, but not enough.
I have seen someone writing on the same topic as myself, not the quality of content I put down, earning over $700 for the post. I have noticed, the people earning high rewards, are all using bots. I have earned a small amount, but I think I will take my chances first and continue writing good content, and build my followers.
Will I one day use a bot to promote? The temptation is lurking at my front door, I don't know.
Bots to promote content is everywhere. On FB you have to promote your pages to get seen. FB have been very good to me in the sense that I have never had to promote content on my page, because they have been promoting my excellent content for free. Thus I have built a following with very little effort, to almost 700 in less than a year for my page, not following the promotion route, only by being consistently posting once a week.
I can see these bots are a huge thing on Steemit, maybe I will be able to beat the system with bots on Steemit, I don't know, time will tell.
Thanks for your amazing and rich reply.
well. you just got yourself new, loyal and very active follower.
Just checked your profile just to realize that we seem to share a number of interests :)
In particular that we both share a similar passion towards cryptocurrencies and blockchain technology :)
To tell you the truth. It isnt possible to use bots to earn 700$ and actually have some profit. It would be very costly to achieve it. So those who have such a huge paycheck are pretty much always losing some funds. But receiving more exposure. At least thats my experience so far. Making any $ on bots is super difficult. Breaking even is usually my target.
Obviously followed! :)
Thanks, I have also followed you!!
lovely! :D
Would you mind sending me short email to [email protected]? I would love to be able to keep in touch and support each other on Steemit.
I wish there would be more advanced notification system developed by steemit.
No pressure of course :)
Cheers, Piotr
