RE: A minnows guide to start using Steemvoter.com | And how to setup rules to automate some of your posts!
Thanks for putting this guide together – I have upvoted and followed you. :-)
A couple questions:
- What are the benefits of automating votes? Does it increase your reputation, etc?
- Does steemit have any penalties for using tools like this? (or other services?)
hey @ajillie, automating votes will mostly help for curating when you are not online,aswell as maximizing your curation...And there are no penalties(i think so) there are alot of pay-for-vote systems in place,aswell as other dedicated vote automation sites like streemian.com ....Everyone is using these services for support on their content :D
It would be very interesting to run a poll and have steemit users vote on whether they are using a "pay-for-vote" or automated services of some kind. I would love to increase my followers or reputation, but so far I'm committed to doing thing manually to make sure I have real growth.
Yes the pay for vote systems are everywhere now, some like them, some hate them. If you use them right they can give you some good profits. Use them wrong and you are losing money. It does however give a false perception of success on the platform. Making your posts look so much better than it actually is.
Using them early on could give you a nice boost for your rep and that in turn will make you more noticeable by other users. All up to personal preferences.
@ajlillie we all start manually first to get to know the platform...later on give the automation systems a try,to see which one fits you :D
Thank you @gingerninja and @sdicuration for the input, good to know!
I am new and getting a little overwhelmed with the bots and additional websites to use. I am not big with computer talk or tech language so it gets to be a little to much. can you refer me to some of the non paid voting people that seem to work like I see @minnowpond seems to provide my posts with attention. Do you know of any others that are not spam or scams? @sdicuration
