Exactly! I can get positive comments and all, but even if bots didn't give me a full return in SBD and SP, it would be worth it if, by getting into the trending lists, the posts got seen by curators and voters that return the SBD investment and a little more.
This is what I've been trying to achieve, but since it's going a bit slow, I take care to use only the bots that will let me continue circulating the money in 7-day cycles.
Now that you mention it, I'll try and check some curation lists and see where my content is different. Maybe I can fix some stuff to make my posts more attractive.
Seeing that you're the owner of one of such curation lists, may I ask a favor from you? If you have the time, I'd like you to take a superficial look at my latest posts and see if you notice a pattern of something I can improve. I'm sure you have a trained eye that is more accustomed to seeing good-quality posts. I'm sorry if this feels a little out of place.
