LOL! I know :3 I do take SP into consideration, and it's the reason why I'm not shy when picking bots. My only concern is that I don't really have any SBD income, so if I throw money at post-curation posts for a 2.1 multiplier, I will get my investment back in SP, but if I want to keep promoting, I'll have to power down and use that as funds to keep the ball rolling.
That seems a bit counter productive, which is the reason why I look for bots that return the SBD I put in. Things like @minnowbooster or even @smartmarket (which does lose me some SBD but it's not like @postpromoter or other bots that give me a 1.x multiplier).
I know I'm asking for too much, but since there's a market for it, I shamelessly take it.
I know exactly what you mean and it is difficult. The secret is making AMAZING content that gets organic votes. Then you really come out ahead.
Bots will give you a profit, but not always in liquid SBD. Which makes it hard to "churn" the bots.
If at all possible, consider buying SBD or even Steem and invest in the platform you use.
Exactly! I can get positive comments and all, but even if bots didn't give me a full return in SBD and SP, it would be worth it if, by getting into the trending lists, the posts got seen by curators and voters that return the SBD investment and a little more.
This is what I've been trying to achieve, but since it's going a bit slow, I take care to use only the bots that will let me continue circulating the money in 7-day cycles.
Now that you mention it, I'll try and check some curation lists and see where my content is different. Maybe I can fix some stuff to make my posts more attractive.
Seeing that you're the owner of one of such curation lists, may I ask a favor from you? If you have the time, I'd like you to take a superficial look at my latest posts and see if you notice a pattern of something I can improve. I'm sure you have a trained eye that is more accustomed to seeing good-quality posts. I'm sorry if this feels a little out of place.
