I just wonder if I should be doing it.
There is nothing wrong with using bots. Read more to know my detailed opinion.
So my question is, since I’m so new... should I be using the bots or focus more on interactions which is what I have been doing since I joined? Is it even possible for someone like me (a plankton) to become a minnow through only commenting and posting blogs?
Using bots:- I have used boughts very few times in my eight months here. Initial uses were just experiments. I started using MinnowBooster only recently to get some initial boost and it helped me gain the momentum.
Interaction:- For me, interaction has been the key! I cannot advise anyone to rely on bots. Also, I will never advise anyone to reduce interaction.
So, use bot promotion only on the posts which you think are your best work and deserve some recognition even if paid one. Do not use bots as ROI tools, never!
I am a live example of an absolute plankton becoming a sufficiently influential minnow without relying on bots. Interaction has been my strongest thing. You can see my comments to see that. See this very comment for example. So, it is very much possible.
Wishing you more success!
Thank you for the words of encouragement! I will definitely keep reading your posts to learn more!
