I actually just added you to my list, then got back to Steemit and saw your comment here :)
There is one catch to using it though: I think they use (or at least reserve the right to) use one of your upvotes each day for their own purposes.
The advantages are that you can set an auto-vote and forget about it and it will come in consistently at the time you specified which helps with curation rewards.
Thanks. I'll check it out tomorrow.
I'm not sure if it's still as economically viable as when I joined up (prices changes, so did upvotes) but the basic gist of it is that they only accept people who post original content. They offer several things: automatic upvote once every 24 hours (you make your investment back after a short while), an honest upvote bot, and a chat channel where you can drop links once a day as long as you also read/upvote/comment on somebody else's post there - since it's original content you can usually find something thereI've got another tip for you by the way: @qurator
Thank you. I read a post or two there quickly. I have bookmarked it for now and may consider it later. At the moment I don't want to spread my vote too thin. I already belong to ShadowBot - partly as an experiment, partly to get votes. Though I've been there a few months already, I have yet to get a single cent out of them :) But I acknowledge that it's not designed to be a short-term plan, the longer you belong, the better your chances of votes/payouts. https://steemit.com/bots/@bitbrain/give-the-bots-a-chance
I am against bots in principle, but I do see the potential value in them. Honestly I wish that Steem would just ban them.
I hadn't heard of ShadowBot before. In any case, @qurator is not so automated. People still choose who they upvote, and it's not netting me much but the daily $0.05 or so upvote is nice. Back in december it was up to $0.35 a day, which meant I could recoup the buy-in cost pretty quick.
I don't like bots either but unfortunately in the beginning there is not much else you can do to get some visibility. It makes a world of difference if your post makes $0.03 or $1.00 even if you paid $0.97 of that yourself - at least the latter one will get some views and hopefully a follower or two.
Sad but true
