I have roughly 9% of your voting power (about 17,000SP compared to about 186,000) and I've made over twice the amount of profits on my curating over the last week compared to you.
You're right, "[you're] actually a crappy voter."
I know that I took that out of context, but my point still stands, from the perspective of auto-voting to make profits, that is.
If you're serious about making money by curating, I have a few tips that I can throw your way and an excel spreadsheet that I made, which makes it easy to quickly determine what content creators on your voting list are paying out well (compared to the rest on your list), both on a day-by-day basis and average payout per post basis.
the authors I choose to upvote are not necessarily the ones who make a lot on Steemit. I chose each one for a particular reason, but I would be interested in learning more about this. send me a pm if you could....
Thank you. Make a little money on this if you want, but it should be used (just as good manual curation is) to choose worthy authors who are not necessarily good moneymakers. Knowing you, I don't even have to say this, since I know that helping good people is one of your main reasons for being here.
yeah, that's why it took me so long to get a bot. I was very strict about them, but I see their benefits now....
the week before I think I made around 150 sp in curation rewards...
If you're after profits, you could do much better with the amount of SP that you have.
I think I could almost achieve that amount in a week if I spent enough time picking my content creators and voting at 100% voting power.
can you send me the excel sheet? can you pm in steemit chat?
I'll probably make a post soonish (in the next week or so) that will allow anyone to safely download it (through Microsoft's "share" service for Excel 2013).
As far as the pm goes, I've never used steemit chat, nor know how to even access it (never looked into it) and I'm going to sleep in less than an hour.
Maybe we can chat, in private, some other time?
ok, send me a comment on one of my posts with a link to your post when you write about it. Thanks!
@stellabelle
Will do. My pleasure.
I look forward to seeing your post when you write it, soonish. :-) I am a manual curator but I'm interested in who others choose to vote for. Thanks in advance, followed!
