This is an excellent post. I completely agree that we should use the Steem promote feature in combination with bots to only help visibility. Improvements are needed to the Steem promote feature, such as being able to select a larger amount of Steem dollars to make the post visible on different levels. Maybe add a feature that, a certain amount invested in promotion, will make a post visible to all the steemit witnesses and to higher ranked steemit community members. Also a feature that donates a portion of the steemit promote funds to new steemit community members. Thank You for sharing this information on Steemit! Have a great weekend!
