You said it very right here. But the one thing I do not understand is the why self-voting is considered a bad habit here. Actually if you post a good comment here and if after that a lot of people post their comment on the post which are meaningless and have no values but your comment moves down due to it. So we have to upvote our own comment in that situation to bring our comment on the top. What do you say about it?

I don't self vote comments but I think it is 'ok' for minnows on good comments. I don't like seeing big accounts self voting themselves up to the top as it detracts from a lot of the smaller accounts. The worst I saw (not value-wise) was for a competition run by @kpine for accounts under 40 rep where two dolphins hijacked the top positions. It is very low class.
I do think bumping up a bit might be okay but again, that takes cents to get above spam, not dollars or hundreds of dollars.
Yes cents will do the trick.
