RE: Why Most Bots are USELESS

in #steemit7 years ago

I have mixed feelings about upvote and resteem bots. The owner of steembottracker made me this account at the last #SteemitPhilly meet up. They can be used to reach more people who might follow you because they truly like your blog and wouldn't have known about it otherwise.If you choose a reputable verified bot, I see it as a form of advertising yourself. The more people who see your posts, the better. I paid 3 SBD to promote one of my original bideos on my @xsrian-cooking account via @null, and I only made like 15 cents from the post, but I gained a lot of organic followers.

Yeah okay. So why do you have two accounts? It's just a question, i know there's plenty of reasons to have legitimately two accounts. Yes having more eyes on your accounts is great. But how often do you navigate over to the account of one of those resteem bots so that you can find a cool new account to follow? I'd be willing to bet you don't. Most people visit accounts of actual people not resteem bot services. At least that's been my experience. Please let me know your view on this, as I am interested in hearing.

I made this account to represent me and my many interests. My older account represents a brand and the interest of cooking.

I've never used a bot, but upvote bots can get you in hot or possibly trending tags which is more exposure, and the resteem bots show up in all their followers default feed. It brings more awareness to your blog. I've considered using them, as well as minnow booster.

Okay that makes sense regarding your other account. Thanks for explaining and also for explaining why you would chose a bot service.
