@brandonfrye I just delegated 100SP to you. Wish it could be more!!
You're today's comment winner!! 😎🥂
Each day I pick a random comment on my post to upvote and today was your lucky day 🙌🏻
Perfect! Congratulations @altportal!! I look forward to sending you those daily payouts :)
Me too! lol
Thanks @brandonfrye . 33 to 37% is a very good APR . Keep it up . Thumbs up from me.
I agree, thanks @doctalk! 🙌🏻
Nice update.
Awesome updates brother, really appreciate your hard work! You are by far the most profitable delegation I have right now. Like we discussed, I was considering starting my own bot, but with your returns I think I might just ramp up with a full delegation moving forward your way. Really happy to be Involved as an investor moving forward with you. Excited for the journey!
That's so nice to hear, @abrockman. Thanks for the feedback and your continued support for the upvote service. I look forward to what the future holds and the things we'll accomplish with this project. I will continue to add to the bot and look for ways to bring even more profit to all the investors in the future. This is just the beginning. 😊
@brandonfrye Awesome video, great work, and great information. I try to watch every single videos and post, as I love your content, which are very helpful to me and others. Keep up the good work, and definitely people will appreciate your hard work. I gave you a up vote for your great content. Thank you and Cheers!
Hello steemit thank you all the bandura on my behalf and thank you everyone please upvote me and follow
LOL, was just watching this on youtube when i see it on the top page of Steemit... LOL...
Lol, awesome. Maximum exposure!! :)
LOL!!!
(Anyone Guess who made this line popular?)
How will that bot boost look like, you will boost that persons post?
Great question! It will boost their comment on my post here. 👌
Ok thanks for explanation.
Thanks for the update i have been following your Youtube channel but never commented. I appreciate what you are doing for the steemit community. I would love to particapate with the brandonfrye bot. I have only been on the platform since January and still have steem deligated to me by steemit. Being a minnow is hard but we all had to start somewhere. When i get to 50 steem it will be a joyous day, then i can play. Keep sharing all that great info.
Thanks for the follow, @firecajun9262. And yes, we all start somewhere. You must be doing pretty good though to have already reached a 44 Rep. Keep up the great work and let me know if there are any topics you would like me to discuss on my channel.
Thank you @brandonfrye, I think many people will like to invest with this APR. I also start thinking about it. But next week I'm starting my new job, so it might still take some time.
Thanks @explorer79 and when the time is right I would love to have you invested in the bot as well. Let me know! (And congrats on the new job!)
Thank you, Brandon :) I'll think about it.
Actually this reward change is a really good idea! I think it's better because you can help people to be seen! :)
Anyways I have a question, can you do a video (or tell me) about the profitability of the steem bots? I mean when I have small account is it good to boost my posts even with small amounts? like 0.1 bids? For example I did bid 0.1 SBD and get $0.20 upvote so does it good for me or not? Or maybe could you tell me how do use bots better way for small accounts like mine? (sorry if my question looks a little chaotic)
True, the added exposure helps as well. And as far as profitability goes, it really depends on the bot in question. Some bots (like mine) set a minimum ROI %. I've got mine set to a minimum ROI of -10% and those who bid on my bot typically see between 10-100% ROI from what I've seen. I've even seen as high as 300% but that's pretty rare. So I would personally recommend only using bots that have this set and you can see this on https://steembottracker.com.
As far as exposure goes, you're basically competing with other posts out there. If you want to hit the Hot or Trending sections via upvote bot, then you'll need to use several smaller bots or a couple of bigger bots (with more money). I've noticed that the bigger bots tend to not set an ROI limit and therefore are less profitable. As my bot grows though, it will remain at a high ROI due to the limit.
Anyways, these are some great questions. And perhaps this is something I could cover in a video in the future. Thanks for the questions and the idea.
Yeah no problem I would love to see that video :)
So I guess I need to look for some bots with ROI limit right? But still is it worth it to do really small bids? How do you think?
Yes I think so. It's still profitable (as long as you use bots with the ROI limit) and it will boost your post some.. even if it's not at the top 5 of the Hot page.
Ok thank you :D there is another question: I uploaded a video on dtube and I want to get upvotes so can I use bot on Dtube link? Or should I better use it on steemit post of this video?
Yep you sure can and it will upvote the post on both Steemit and Dtube. Technically it’s upvoting the one post but shows in both places. 👍🏻
Oh ok, thank you :D
@brandonfrye sorry for all this questions but I just uploaded a video that I think is really good and I think it deserves to be seen by more people. Actually today I won a photography contest so I have 2SBD to spent on bots and I just wanted to do it right way :D
You got a 30.77% upvote from @brandonfrye courtesy of @brandonfryeroi!
Want to promote your posts too? Send a minimum of .10 SBD or Steem to @brandonfrye with link in the memo for an upvote on your post. You can also delegate to the bot for daily passive earnings. Learn more here
Thanks for your delegation, @faraicelebr8! I'm glad to offer this investment opportunity for us all and look forward to working together to make this the best Steem project ever!! I also appreciate your feedback about everything. You're the best!
Keep up the great work! Its great to get value from your content and now also from the delegation. The change is also great as it incorporates more of the Steem ecosystem into the process and will be more engaging to the community that participates. Look forward to the future!
Thanks @newageinv, I'm glad you're a part of this growing community!! 😊
That's A Good APR Mate! It Seems Like You're Bot Is Working Very Well!! Also, I Was Wondering What This Means.

Those are Steem Backed Dollars. You can use those to move around to other users or purchase upvotes. Or.. you can power that up into Steem Power. :)
I Ment The "Currently Collecting 0% APR".. Lol I Know What A Steem Dollar Is...
Oh lol. I believe they used to earn interest.
Ok.. Thanks!
your upvote bot is rising .
Yes it is! Up.. up.. and away! 😁
Delegated most of my SP.
Mainly because I will be busy with other areas in my life and thought it may be a better use for my SP, rather than let it be unused.
Excellent! Thanks for the support and I agree that was a smart move. May as well let it earn you some money! 😁🥂
Hi Brandon, I would like to ask a question: I am a new user at Steemit and they are delegating SP, but I have already won my SP on my own. I would like to know, if in my case I could delegate SP?
Thanks for your videos.
Hey @samycfc, that's a great question. First I would make sure that you have more than 20 SP in your account before you begin delegating. You really need to maintain 20 SP in your account for bandwidth, otherwise you could run into issues. I would also wait until Steemit Inc.' delegation has been removed from your account. If you want to speed up that process, you can purchase Steem Power for your account from http://blocktrades.us. Otherwise, just wait until you have some more SP available for delegation.
Excellent, then I'll do that and wait. Thank you very much friend, I really appreciate that you take the time to answer us.
Done following you sir . I just check your video on YouTube ,some tips you've given there .nice to know you and continue to give an idea on steemit earnings .keep it up!
Thanks for your comments, @labgo. I appreciate you checking out my content! :)
Yeah man! I have dreams bro....Dreams of living off the delegation payments each and every day. Of course, to reach my goals I'll need another 100-200k Steem Power but still....One can dream :)
Yessir, you and me both. Or, if 2018 turns out to be an amazing year for crypto then we may not need but a 10th of that. I'm ready for this bull run that everyone is talking about!! 🚀 👨🚀
I've found you on steembottracker and I see there -10% in ROI Limit, tell me please what does it mean ?
Hey @clixmoney, that's a great question. The ROI limit is something bot owners can set to prevent people from overbidding too much. Unfortunately, not all bot owners make use of this feature. I have mine set at negative 10% so that when people get an upvote from me they can expect no less than -10% ROI. I would have set it to zero but that tends to keep people from placing bids when a round fills up. So -10% seems to be the sweet spot and I've only seen a couple of rounds go into the negative.
Thank you @brandonfrye , you are truly helping my with your constant updates so keep them coming.
Another great video! Thanks for the update on the bot and your plans. Definitely considering giving back. I found you on YouTube because you and a few others were the only ones talking about STEEMIT. What i noticed with you is that you are transparent and when you find something out, you share it even if you do not know all the inner workings. Your not in it for the $$, you in it to share your content and make this world a better place, staring with STEEMIT! Thanks again!
Thanks @daywalker1775, I try to be as open as possible and share as much as I can with others. I appreciate your feedback. :)
yeeeehawwwww!!!!!! thanks for the shout outs...and the numbers. WE LOVE the brandonfrye bot! can't wait to see how this evolves over the next year. we are in it for the long haul! the steem blockchain...and the brandonfrye bot! we appreciate all you do for us brandon!
oh and I LOVE the idea of taking the daily commenter reward...and shifting that to the bot to payout!!!! building the bot and the brand!
Thanks @rawutah, the feedback I've been getting is overwhelmingly positive. I'm so glad that I took the leap and decided to created the upvote service. We're going to help so many people in the long run. I appreciate your support!!
Hey @brandonfrye I have another question today. It's a little complicated but I'll try to explain in the easiest way. Let's say that I have some SBD on my account (to be realistic I had 2SBD) and now which option is better to grow my account (the main purpose is to grow my SP and following) :
I mean the 1st option can be good if I would upvote myself or if I upvote someone and try to get portion of someone's post curation, so I am wondering which scenario would give best effects, how do you think?
Trying to figure out how to deligate SP to you, right now... hope to have it figured out soon... Looking Like CLEAR SKYS AHEAD...
Hey @sunrisela, that sounds great! You can go to https://steembottracker.com/delegation.html, enter your username, and choose how much you would like to delegate. Just be sure to leave yourself about 20 SP in your account for yourself.
Just used your link and deligated 66 SP to you, Hope your Bot and the payouts work out for everyone. Love your videos and your help... If your ever in town, I have a LUXURY VACATION RENTAL you might want to stay at. All the pictures I post are the views from the back yard. -Thanks for your help.
I'm trying to grow in this community, I was wrong. But I am trying to learn, and good information is highly valued. Thank you. regards
Thank you for your post, I liked what you said, Very useful information.
