There hasn't been as much talk about resteem services lately, or at least not as much as the bidbots, so kudos for including them in your post.
I've never used either one, so I can't say from personal experience. The buyer beware is probably the safest way to put it, but from what I've read from those who have used or at least experimented with the bidbots, it sounds like they had mixed results at best.
Since whales don't look at the trending page other than in disgust, or to find a flag target, it's the newbies who are looking at it. And it's some other large SP buying their way up there in hope of what? Dust votes? It's all very peculiar to me.
I've wondered about the caliber of the resteem services, just because you can't hand pick your followers. If you could, then at least 90%, if not higher of mine would ever make it because they're scammers, bots or alt accounts. The remaining 10% are in varying degrees of following, with probably half of that being truly engaged with me or anyone else on the platform.
I think resteemig bots actually do work quite well. i've tried about 20 bots (ive spent maybe 10 sbd) on my latest posts and i received comments from around 30 new people. that's a lot
If it works that's great . But I think you are better equipped than most here to understand the workings
Okay, so 20 bots for 10 SBD for 30 new people over how many posts? And was that 30 each post or all together?
"Send 0.700 SBD or 1 STEEM To hugewhale URL as Memo , Resteem to 10.500+ Followers , Min 30+ Account Upvotes , Hugewhale upvote."I've been using small bots like @hugewhale
so I've spent around 10 sbd and received over 30 comments in one promoted post from people I never knew before. within one post.
I wish there was a way to clean the following list . I don't pay much attention to it for a reliable indicator .
Yes thats what I get also mixed feelings . For now I will stay away :)
