RE: 10 little idiots: trying to answer | if everyone delegates to bidbots?
Thank you, Taraz, for yet another illuminating post on this whole discussion. I've never used bidbots before, but after reading some of your previous posts, as well as @m31's recent post about this, I've decided to stop buying votes from the @smartsteem service.
I would still like to know, though, if you believe buying votes from real people, who are selling their vote, is just as bad (or, bad but not as bad) as bidbots.
It is just a manual bidbot in my opinion. I could make more doing that than writing 10 hours a day but why would I care about the community?
Gotcha. Well, I can't say I won't miss the $6+ votes on my posts, but I know I'll certainly feel better about things when I get such upvotes organically! =)
When you were starting out, what were some of the ways you used to get yourself out there? I'm a somewhat introverted person, and any attempt to get people looking at my work often makes me feel awkward.
how many views are you getting on your posts?
Oh my gosh, was this you?? I just got a vote from @anomadsoul on my latest post, and then suddenly got a flood of votes from others ..! Not complaining, hehe, just curious. If so, thank you!
No but @anomadsoul is a manual curator and generally doesn't vote on the bidbot voted posts. take away the bidbots, do the work and you will find that in time, you will likely do much better without having to pay for it.
I just read it:
Another manual curator. ;)
I just saw that! And indeed, I will maintain the quality of my posts. (I'm glad to say I have never been lazy in my posting habits thinking I can just buy votes for them.)
Also, thank you for your own upvote =)
An average of around 20 views, though some of them get as high as 40-50.
