RE: You Don't Need Upvotes to Earn Money From Your Steem Blog

in #steem6 years ago

That's exactly why I started adding affiliate links to my posts, to attempt to generate income to be used solely for 2 things: 1) buying more Steem and powering it up to increase my voting power and reward amounts, 2) paying upvote and resteem bots so that my posts are seen by more than one person.
The other day I almost spent all of my remaining SBD on a few bots trying desperately to get a couple of posts out there in front of people. The results were not at all encouraging.
This got me to thinking, I shouldn't be PAYING to post, so maybe with an affiliate link or two in most, but not every, post I could make a few cents to help with this unfortunate expenditure.
In time, as my followers increase in number and SP, the bot-use will decrease. Hopefully it works that way, we will see.
Thanks for the help!
