Tip 9: How to get upvotes? Bot or not?

How do you get your votes?

1. You can self-vote but if you just start your vote is worth less or 0.
2. You get upvotes from people who like your contest or like you.
3. You won a contest you joined.
4. A bot gives you upvotes.
5. @partiko upvotes (because you use partiko or because you change your partiko points into an upvote = steem).

Lets talk about bots.

There are all kinds of. Some upvote your posts and are sent by a community. Some sweep your dust like @dustsweeper or @dustbunny.
There are bots used to send a tip to someone or you can pay to get an upvote or win one for lifetime.

If it comes to bots I am not an expert. I followed some people's steps to see what happens. To be honest it still is abracadabra to me.

If you need to be 'feed' (could need some upvotes) visit @oleg326756.

1. Follow @oleg326756

2. Read his latest post:
   Upvotes Giveaway and a Chance to Win a LIFETIME OF UPVOTES from @feedyourminnows bot – Episode 61 (or a later version).

There are two options given but you can do both:

1. Upvotes for a week

2. Upvotes for a lifetime
   For each option you need to follow some steps.

3. Resteem and upvote

In short

Register for a week-long automatic upvotes (limited to twice a day at 10%) by sending registration fee 0.050 STEEM/SBD with the word feedme in the memo to @oleg326756 (and don’t forget to resteem this post)
Leave a comment with #feedme (don’t forget to upvote the two posts!) to enter the raffle for a chance to win a lifetime membership for the FeedYourMinnows BOT.
Note The 2 posts are @oleg326756 and @scrooger his. They work together to run feed your minnows

4.  visit @scrooger

1. follow @scrooger
2. Read his latest post

   (or higher number)

Here you read who won a lifetime membership, see a list of all Steemians who the bot is upvoting (payed for or won memberships) and more info about how the bot works, you can donate/upvote so it keeps doing its job.

There is also a weekly contest which you can join. Called this week's gif.

If you want an UPVOTE

• Follow the rules
• Wallet - transfer - @feedyourminnows - amount - memo: feedme.

And this is exactly what I did today.

Steem is about earning. You need to earn to power up/stake. Without Steem Power (SP) you are not able to post, comment and upvote. Make yourself visible. Use your SP in the most efficient way.
