[Upvote Strategy] My latest strategy to grow my Steem and SBD

I have been considering using upvote bots again to try and find one that gives me a positive return on investment. The idea is to get my SBD and Steem work harder on Steemit. I like the idea of earning SBD with my current SBD. Feels like cloud mining. lol

I stopped using upvote bots a while back after seeing negative returns on my investment. That is even before the curation rewards subtracted. You know your rewards are split 75/25 after 7 days of post submission? Author gets 75% and curators 25%.

I have looked at many upvote bots and all have negative returns. Some even before the curation reward. :(

The only upvote bot that gives me a positive return is @minnowbooster. I use @minnowbooster by buying an upvote for $5 and then get an immediate upvote that is between $7.88 and $8.22 currently. My upvote today received $8.22 upvote and I used it on a post that it 6 days and 2 hours old. So, in 22 hours I will get about $6.165. That is a profit of $1.165 or ROI of 23.3%!

PS. To minimize the reduction in post value you need to post as close to 7 days, but before 6 days and 12 hours.

But there is a problem… scaling. I can only do these 3 times a week or every 2.33 days and at $5 max per day. I think this is because @minnowbooster and other bots all have a problem with scaling. I also think that is why Steemit allows it because it cannot be missed used or abused.

To use the other bots to increase income will not work. The only reason why I think you would like to use the other upvote bots is if you want to get your post to be listed in Hot or Trending categories. This will give you more exposure and have a positive long term effect on your Steemit account. It will also give you some authority when people see your posts getting $5 to $20 in upvotes.

So my latest upvote strategy is the following:

Use @minnowbooster upvote bot
Use on post age of 6 to 6.5 days
Use $5 per post
Use it every day for 3 days and then every 2.333 days so that I don't use upvote more than 3 per week. @minnowbooster will return your $5 if you post to soon.

This strategy should earn me about $3 per week more than I am currently earning and some post might trend in hot or trending category. :)

PS. @minnowbooster also has other income opportunities, like getting paid 24% APR for delegating your SP. More info here: http://www.minnowbooster.net/market

Below are more parameters for the @minnowbooster bot. This is current but does change from time to time. Always double check this latest parameters on the @minnowbooster blog before you buy an upvote.
