How do Steemit BOTS work?

Bots are non-human but are artificially controlled which will respond automatically if there is a signal request wherein they will response back to actions that they are designed. Most of bots have been coded with scripts which will act as their behavior.

STEEM IT BOTS

Bots in Steemit do acts as a booster or power up created blogs by users. Most of those are Paid Bots, wherein you need to pay either STEEM or SBD to make your request, popular request are upvote services and resteem services.

RANDO WHALE - @randowhale

This kind of whale optimize your post by sending by sending 0.50 SBD with your post in the memo, a sample image below :

Note : Sorry for the image since i got less balance , but all you need to do is put your desired blog url to memo, so randowhale may know what blog to upvote.

Once you have successfully sent the money to randowhale, around less than a minute , your blog will get around 1%-2+% and if your lucky enough you will get much more than 3%.

The downside of randowhale is that it is not always active , wherein this kind of bot do sleep (inactive) and wake up (active) , you will need to send sbd to this but when he is active or else your sbd will sent back to you.

See error , if you sent him sbd during his sleep :

@randowhale is currently sleeping and your funds have been returned. Please download the RandoAwake Chrome browser extension at https://bit.ly/randoawake to receive automated notifications when @randowhale goes to sleep and wakes! [ID:943ef33fdf264aa97e202991d31a238fd49ccd57]

One way to know if he is awake is to use a chrome plugin in Chrome WebStore , see image :

Once this plugin is installed into your chrome browser it will automatically notifies you , you may here a whale sound if you turned on your sound system from either your laptop or your computer.

You may see image also indicating his sleep :

You may also check his voting power in this site : https://steemdb.com/@randowhale

Once this bot reaches to its 100%, he is now awake and good to do the upvoting. Sometimes randowhale does sleep again once he is overused by steemit users and will gain back , as i have observed rest time of randowhale is around 2-3 hours , so try to be quick since around 5-20 minutes for him to stay awake.

BUILD A WALE - @buildawhale

I have not yet used this whale but many did say that it will boost your post around $3 or over if lucky. This is only by sending an amount of 0.10 SBD to 0.50 SBD , the same process with sending money , you just make sure that you indicated the blog url to be boosted in the memo field.

The drawback of this it does not refund the member. They will not vote a blog on their last 13 hours before the set payout.
This kind of bot is bidding , so its a luck. Voting rounds last for 2 hours and 40 minutes.

Make sure to correctly input the amount or you will end up losing it , Just a reminder.

BOOSTER - @booster

This kind of bot has the up vote power wherein it will cast 100% of the vote divided to all members bidding. It has no particular amount of SBD , you just make your bid and that's it , wait for the voting rounds to end so the bot will analyze the percentage to be given to each member, so if you have the luck he will give you most of his voting power. But again this bot does not refund so be careful on your typo.

BELLY RUB - @bellyrub

This whale they call it the "Baby Whale" since it has less power than the other big whales. This whale is a good booster also giving around 50% voting power if your lucky. You just send him 0.10 SBD and surely this bot will happily up vote your blog.

BOOMERANG - @boomerang

Boomerang is a bidding bot where you will send a minimum of 0.05 SBD, percentage will be divided according to the biggest to lower amount. There might be a risk but surely it will give rewards if lucky enough.

MINNOW BOOSTER - @minnowbooster

This is a voting bot will give you around $3-$4 with the amount of $2

Special Note ::
Just make sure to use properly Bots since they do get Curation rewards also.

which one of these is your favorite?
and can u explain the minnow booster to me please

I have tried now and they have increased minnow booster to minimum of 2 SBD .

Just tried today and so this message appears "Sorry, you need to send at least 2.0 SBD!"

As of now my favorite is randowhale.. but minnow booster is also good in which when you send around 2 SBD it will return 5 times your paid amount , more like the return would be 10 SBD value.

People who purchase this kind of bot will fully explain.

Sorry for my first statement , i just tried and it appears that it will give around $3.10-$3.30 or more with the amount of $2 SBD , i think this is a fair trade... as for minnow booster is the best but it has a limit of $6 per day.

@minnowpond1 has voted on behalf of @minnowpond. If you would like to recieve upvotes from minnowpond on all your posts, simply FOLLOW @minnowpond. To be Resteemed to 4k+ followers and upvoted heavier send 0.25SBD to @minnowpond with your posts url as the memo
