Promoting content on steemit, buying upvotes

If you're reading this post then likely you're a proud steemit member! You're reading/posting/commenting/upvoting and most likely trying to make some money here. Don't be shy, everyone wants to make money here ;)
I like writing and reading good posts and learning something new, but it's also glad to get some profit out of it. That's why after writing my first couple of posts I started to look for some ways to maximize my profit. The first step was promoting my posts for free, and there were some good tools which I've shared in my previous post. Today I'll share some tips on how to get promoted on steemit with the help of small investments which may be shortly paid off.
So if you have some SBD bought or already earned you'll probably like this post :)

Buying upvotes

This may sound bad at first, but vote-selling is highly circulated here. The idea is that some "whale" member want to "cash out" their STEEM POWER, by selling their votes. So they offer x2-x3 upvotes for your posts, that's mean that you'll pay them 1 SBD they will upvote your post for 3 SBD, so after a week you'll get 1.5 SBD and some steem power back. Good deal, isn't it?

Оn practice calculation will be a little bit other, you should consider 25% curation reward, so the real result will be 1.125 SDB for x3 upvote (and some steem power). So the vote seller must offer minimum ~x2.65 upvote to cover your investment or you should buy upvotes in the first minutes after the post has been published, to minimize curation reward.

Some good vote-selling bots (upvote-bots) I'm using:

@minnowbooster - the best project, just send any amount of SBD and you'll get a guaranteed profitable upvote. Saying any amount I mean amount they may afford, you can check available vote value on their website: https://www.minnowbooster.net/

@upvotewhale - send 0.01 to 1.50 SBD with a post URL as memo and your post will receive an x2.1 upvote. Only x2.1 so should buy the vote as soon as you can after publishing.

@randowhale - send 1 SDB and get random upvote, sometimes it may not profitable but sometimes it may surprise you with a big upvote ;)

smartsteem - the largest vote-market. Not sure their upvotes are always profitable, but they may offer the highest amount.

You can find more bot here: https://www.steembottracker.com/ (scroll down the page).
Attention: Don't use bid-bots, they are highly overbid and you'll just lose money.

Always do some math before buying an upvote, make sure you'll get at least 200% in return so that you'll cover your investment and get some STEEM POWER as a result. Try to buy upvotes as soon as you can after publishing the post, to maximize author's payout.
