RE: STEEMIT: The "SECRET" to properly summoning randowhale and Whaleshares to MAXIMIZE your ROI!

in #steemit7 years ago

Thanks for taking the time to put this together @alexpmorris! I see the various "upvote comments" on people's posts and always wonder whether it's worthwhile... this post was insightful.

There's something slightly ironic (self-regulating?) about it, because it's the posts I spent three hours on and end up with $5 for I really want to boost... and the ones that are already past $100 already feel "fairly rewarded."

As for the ethics of it all, I'm out to lunch on that; I guess as long as it isn't damaging the platform I have no objections, regardless of whether I choose to use one of these services.

Thanks for the comment and kind words! That's what I was saying at the end of the article:

The irony is that it's not always the one you worked on the hardest either. Sometimes it's just that short and very inspired post at just the right time that does the trick.

While there is something a bit "counter-intuitive" about it, reward-wise the goal is really to maximize your average payout per post. So, instead of thinking in terms of a single post being "fairly rewarded", perhaps it's better to think in terms of the best way to fairly reward all your posts, overall!

That helps to put it more in perspective and why it is worth doing.

A lot of people are buying upvotes atm. And more so during these down times. It is not a totally useless strategy, but should it be done right now when the SP is so low and the reward pools are so drained?

There is a huge discussion on this thread. Come and give your point of view :)
