Delegate And Receive Daily Passive Earnings!!
Get Upvotes or Earn Passively.. Your Choice!
After weeks of pondering and debating, I finally decided to pull the plug and create an upvote bot for my account. I was hesitant to do this because quite frankly it seemed daunting. It’s been a few years.. okay maybe 5 or 6… since I took my last programming and Linux courses. And even back then I wasn’t very good at it.
But with the help of a programmer that I’ve worked with in the past, and some help from @yabapmatt (owner of www.SteemBotTracker.com and @potspromoter), I got the script uploaded to my server, tweaked it, and it's working perfectly. Speaking of, the code I used for my upvote bot comes directly from @yabapmatt and @postpromoter. I felt good about this decision because @postpromoter has always been one of my favorite upvote bots to use. Plus, Matt is constantly updating the code with new features.
How Does The Bot Work?
So I guess you want all the juicy details, huh? The @brandonfrye upvote bot will have the following parameters which I carefully considered before launching…
Minimum Post Age: 20 Minutes
Max Post Age: 3.5 Days
Upvote Comments: Yes
Bot Leaves Comment: Yes
Minimum Bid: 0.05 Steem or SBD
Maximum Bid: 999 Steem or SBD
ROI Limit: -10%
Refund Bids: Yes (for unaccepted bids)
Anti Spam: Yes (sharing data with Cheetah, SteemCleaners, etc.)
Note: These settings will be adjusted over time as needed. I know that as we get more and more Steem Power delegated to the bot, we'll need to increase the minimum bid.
How Do I Get An Upvote?
That’s easy. Just send your bid (currently minimum of 0.05 SBP or Steem) to @brandonfrye with your post link in the memo field. Each bidding round lasts approx. 2 hours and 24 minutes. Your percentage of the upvote will be determined on how well you bid against others. And you will receive your upvote once the bidding round is over.
Be sure to check www.SteemBotTracker.com for current bids and voting times. I will be providing them access to my bot's API for accuracy.
How Can I Earn Passively From Your Bot?
This is the fun part and really one of the biggest reasons why I wanted to take on this project. Not only can we share the love to others through gratitude on their posts with upvotes, but those who have some Steem Power to spare can earn passively by delegating to the @brandonfrye bot.
Here’s how it works…
Delegate a minimum of 50 Steem Power to the bot and earn Steem and SBD directly to your wallet every single day. Doesn’t get much more passive than that!
I will leave some links below to those of you who want to delegate to the bot but don’t know exactly how to do it. All you have to do is click on one of the links below, insert your username on the next screen, then confirm your delegation through SteemConnect.
Delegate 50 SP to the Bot
Delegate 75 SP to the Bot
Delegate 100 SP to the Bot
Delegate 200 SP to the Bot
Delegate 500 SP to the Bot
Delegate 1,000 SP to the Bot
Delegate 2,000 SP to the Bot
Delegate 5,000 SP to the Bot
You can also change the delegation amount to anything you like after you click one of the links above. The more you delegate, the more you’ll earn. Just keep in mind that anything less than 50 SP is not recommended as it will bring you such small returns. Also, you should keep (at a minimum) 20 SP in your account so you have enough bandwidth.
How Much Will I Earn From Delegating to Your Bot
The short answer is that you will earn significantly more than you would if you simply used your Steem Power for curation. There's also zero risk with delegating to the bot because we never have access to your money and you can take it back at anytime. This means that everything you earn is pure profit!
Obviously, the actual amounts on returns are not yet available as we've just launched. But I can tell you that the bot is paying out 80% of it's bids to investors/delegators (that's huge!). We will also be tracking all earnings and making this information available at a later date. This way we will know an estimate of what to expect if you delegate say.. 100 SP over the course of a month... or... 1,000 SP over the period of a year. I love data so you can count on me bringing that to you soon. :)
So Whats Next?
I really want to do so much more with this bid bot than just provide upvotes and pay investors. My plan is to find a Steem project (or community) to raise funds for. There are so many great things that I would like to contribute to.. and now we will all be able to help. Not only will we be providing a service to help minnows build their Steemit accounts, we'll also be helping investors, all while supporting great causes within the Steem ecosystem.
The next step is to get in contact with @yabapmatt to let him know that the bot is ready to be added to www.SteemBotTracker.com. Right now is a great time to bid as this bot is currently unkown and you will have little competition. Plus, the minimum bid is super low! As we gain more Steem Power from delegators we'll need to increase the minimum bid amount accordingly.
UPDATE: The bot has now been added to https://steembottracker.com and is connected to my API for accurate pricing. I've also created a video letting you know (in more detail) why I decided to create an upvote bot and how I went about it. This video is super helpful if you're considering creating a bot for yourself. See that video here

What people like you are doing is DESTROYING curation. Damn profiteers. When will yall learn that what you all are doing is killing the platform.
Get back to manual curation and stop encouraging people to disregard it. You, sir, are setting a BAD example. If y'all keep it up, one day this gravy train is going to end.
Look at post quality. It's shit for a reason. Bid bot abuse is on the rise and your kind are the enablers.
I'm glad I found you on YouTube. Delegating looks like a great way for passive income. I currently have 6 delegation leases out on Minnowbooster, but once those finish up in about 3 weeks, I'm going to move my funds to your delegating bot. Thanks for the informative vids. Keep up the good work. I'll be following along to check on the progress of the payout percentages and to watch your other vids and steemit posts.
Hey @pbgreenpoint, thanks so much for the support! I will have a video up very soon with the payout percentages/amounts so far. But what I've seen so far are much higher returns than those you get from MB. I'll have some hard numbers up very soon though!
I'm SO in on this!!!!!!! Just clicked the link and delegated 500!!! Thank you Brandon!!!!!!
You're awesome, @rawutah!! Was wondering who that came from. Appreciate the love man and look forward to sending you the daily earnings!!
YOU ROCK brother!!!!! waiting to see if steem drops lower tonight. if it drops to around a dollar, i'll scoop more. then...i'll delegate some more to you! you're doing great things brandon. please keep it coming!!! we appreciate you! let's earn some steem..and spread the love! it's gonna be a GREAT year for steemit and the steem blockchain!!!!
No doubt!! Major flash sale going on right now lol. Time to grab it up while we can. I got another $1,200 worth last night but maybe I should've waited until tonight.
cheer to that! ok, so i just delegated another 1000!!! so excited to support this! weird thing this...i'm only seeing 1000 delegated in my wallet. hmmmmm? i was seeing 500 delegated before. shouldn't it be 1500 total now?
yah weird. i just checked steemworld.org also...to see delegations out. its only showing -1000. i'll wait through the day....and send delegate another 500. for a total of 1500. thanks brandon!!!!
You’re the best, @rawutah! So did you edit your first delegation using the delegation tool on the steembottracker website? I think you just have to edit the previous delegation and change the amount. I just checked on www.steemreports.com and it appears that you’re currently delegating 1,000 SP.
perfect! thank you....that worked well. clicked update/edit...as you said. super easy. let the good times roll! 1500 total now.
@rawutah, You Rock! Just saw that you increased your SP Delegation to 2,500!! 🤑🙌
FYI - You're going to love tomorrow's update! 😉
yeeeeeehawwww my friend!!!!!!! long live the brandonfrye bot! i can't wait for the update! you are SO appreciated!
Congratulations to @stevelivingston for delegating 200 SP to support the upvote bot. Your daily payouts will begin after the next withdrawal cycle. 🥂
Looking forward to helping out!
Great news! Congrats on the big step! I will look into this as I have only recently started to test the waters of delegating SP and using an upvote bot. I am finally over 500 SP so delegating more than 50 seems like a tradeoff at this point. My first (and only) use of an upvote bot was for a slight gain so not bad. I would love to help you though as I appreciate the help you put out to the community in your posts.
Thanks @newageinv, I have literally been going at this all day long.. tweaking the code, etc. It's been a busy day to say the last lol. And yeah, if you'd like to delegate that would be awesome! Just use one of the links above or go over to www.steembottracker.com and use their delegation tool which is very simple. Thanks for the support!
Done! Hoping to be one of the first! Just delegated 50 SP! Not much but I know you will do great things for the platform and community with it. Look forward to continue watching the journey!
Awesome! You're the best. I will have Matt at the bot to the bottacker website by tomorrow so we can get lots of bids coming in.. and payouts coming to you!! :)
I followed you recently for youtube, I did not know you because I speak spanish, but your videos are really great In fact I sent you SBD to vote for my post. Thank you and keep doing such a good job.
Excellent, @samycfc! Thanks for your support. And I saw your bid come in but it was too high for the current bidding round. Check your wallet because it's been refunded to you. You can bid again with a smaller amount though. I would try for about 0.05-0.25 SBD
Ok bro, I sent it again. You are very kind thank you.
Okay perfect, glad you got the bid in. Btw, this round will be a little longer than normal due to somebody (me) upvoting my own post here by accident. But it will be delivered. Just wanted to give you a heads up! :)
Ready, received the upvote. Thanks friend, I'll use it again soon. You doing an amazing job.
I have contributed my bit because it seems a great project, I have delegated 50 SP, very much luck
Thanks @luisitonews, I totally appreciate your support! I look forward to sending you daily earnings!! :)
Just delegated 300, love the project. Will keep an eye out for more to come!
@envi.sage
Thank you so much for your support, @envi.sage! You rock!!! 🤗
ReSteemed as well.
Thanks for helping me spread the word too!
Congratulations to @arslanhyder for delegating 50 SP to the @brandonfrye upvote service. You will begin to receive daily earnings after the next withdrawal cycle!!
I think its a good idea to delegate if thr account holder has a large amount of STEEM. Since I have very little, I will hold off on dping my share.
Yes, great point! I meant to write in there that you should save a minimum of 20 SP in your account just for bandwidth. Thanks for reminding me. I'll add that now!
