RE: RESTEEMING BOTS - Are those bots better or worse than upvoting bots? (Attached: full list of resteeming bots on Steemit).

in #steemit6 years ago

I personally consider resteem bots a waste of money. Very few valuable accounts actually follow a resteem bot. I know that I wouldn't want a resteem bots resteems in my feed.

Most of the accounts that follow resteem services are either too new to Steemit to know better, dead accounts that were once new and never stuck around to realise that following a bot is absurd, or the accounts are bots themselves. There's also a tonne of fake accounts out there that are quite likely to follow these services to bolster numbers.

You won't find good quality people through resteem services. I'd advise against sending money to them.

Hi @mazzle

I appreciate your amazing comment. Thx for sharing your view on this particular issue.

My personal expecience is a bit more positive.

Whenever I would spent 15-20 SBD on resteeming bots I would get 5-10 valuable new contacts (comments from people I didnt know who are blogging about crypto). So I would say that it was worth it so far. But it really depends on resources and expectations.

But who knows. Maybe soon I will also change my mind. Perhaps Im just to over optimistic :) Thx again for sharing your view. I appreciate it a lot! :)

I think in this case you're attributing the contacts you've found to resteem bots while, in reality, those people found your post as a result of the tags you used or your position on the trending or hot page.

Tags are far more effective than resteem bots. If you want to spend that SBD then I would suggest putting it into voting bots to get your post ranking more highly on the trending page. That will get you in front of a lot more people in comparison to resteem services.

Like I said, no one follows a resteem service. There's absolutely no reason to follow one of these bots if you ever want to look at your feed again.

I love to see how responsive you are @mazzle. Always so supportive! :)
Thank you again for taking time to reply.

Yours, Piotr
