Currently bidbot market is underused as you can visualise on our stats page.
Since most promotion bots auction their votes, the less demand the higher the profits.
We estimated that curently the paid vote market earns on average 8% profits.
Don't be shy, put it out there.
We see it often, the wisest and most interesting opinions remain quiet.
You know what's good content and your voice is worth being shared, take a step forward, populate the trending.
Thanks to Steemium, its easy and cheaper than free.
The best way to counter bad quality posts is by having more people posting better ones. Forget about flagging for now, It's currently easier to dilute boring, stale posts in a sea of better content.
Chose your rank
Our trending simulator™ (Step 2) allows you to preview the position after promotion based on the budget/investment.
Be honest with the impact your post is worth. Are top 5 posts complete trash? Go ahead and pump your quality post to #1 without much thought.
Is the trending otherwise respectably filled with well written and solid content? Well then you decide the position is reasonable.
And remember, if you are to go top trending, do it responsibly, Steem's reputation is at stake.

Thank you for focusing on quality, positivity, and growth while so many are focusing on negativity and punishment.

No offense, but I hope the decreased demand is a telling indicator that people don't want these services, as they hurt the many more than help the few. Is 8% and your split really worth it when it's harmful to the economy and Steem's image?
Positioning this for people to spend to fix trending when bid-bots are the root of it is a head scratching proposition. This will be less and less important as people continue to network/build organic relationships with people/communities (and curation groups) that will upvote their content naturally -- where it has true value.
He is actually making a good point. With Demand the bots are not profitable combine that with flags and the bidbots become a tool for promotion and not a tool for scammers.
He is right demand fixes shitty posts on trending as scammers will not pay to promote.
In that alternate universe where bidding up your own stuff increases its quality, and bid bots are the solution to the problem of bid bots.
Do you believe bidding up increases quality? An odd conclusion as it mathematically seems to increase the value.

No, that was sarcasm. :-)
Oh Radical!
That's Amazing!
There’s great need to help bots, after all they are whales.
I wished my upvote was worth more.

Any time-tested and almost surefire ways to get into trending with good content without a bidbot or having to chunk out a good bit? Not saying I have anything trending worthy yet, but the future may prove otherwise.
How does one truly get noticed on here without the use of these? Asking for myself, ofc. lol
Manual curation is low, so even worthy posts most of the times don't get noticed.

I don't use bid bots. I grind it out and try to add value to my followers. I don't think anyone who is not interested in what I have to say or post would appreciate seeing them on the trending page. There are plenty of ways to make good returns on steemit without bidding up your own content in my opinion.
this community is infiltrated and here we can no longer speak of decentralized, because this seems already a fiduciary system where the owners and masters of the steem, are bot and trend markers, the effort for good content is worth nothing. They want to help limit those prepaid rewards systems and let the steemers make trends for the merit of their contents.

.I doubt that we expect lesser people rely on bidbot because of HF21. I also think to use in the past recent days but I will receive the payout after 7 days. In that day we never know what is the outcome of hf21 and I may never get my ROI.
Congratulations @steemium!

We have spent 250 SBD on promotion our post one week ago. Out of that, 42 SBD still have the status "pending", but the post has been paid out already. We have not been refunded yet.
Bid bots should be banned to see quality content in trending page

Kind of funny when bidbots have start to paying to advertise their own services eh? My how the times are changing...
I feel the Computer Voice is way too monotone- is there a way to have a human read it? I don't mind doing it..
Would you mind doing ~500 a day , for free , forever ? :P
yes, I guess I would mind- I wouldn't even listen to 500 of them for $500 a day :p
Seems like a waste of time for someone to create 500 monotonous article reads. Obviously, my opinion. Let the computer read on...
