@wvm it's all depend.
Some high profiles, have been caught doing plagiarism.
Some are safe to upvote. I don't upvote those with too much monies already.
Mainly, look after the Newbies.
It's really hard to say that without accessibility to the metrics of our individual posts. All I can assume is that people who comment + around 30% of the voters might read it. This is again just a guesstimate. But for the daily trending authors it might be more or less.
I do most of my voting on AutoSteem so the majority of my views don't show up in Steemit.com. For the most part I curate art & photgraphy and target posts with a low amount of votes. I think about two thirds of my votes are automated (30 to 40 per day).
I'm gonna be 100% honest here, I also upvotes articles without reading. Most of the time if I do I've been following the author for quite a while already so it's also a kind of loyalty thing for me. Lets say 35%/50% of my feed gets upvoted with out reading properly. I know it sounds weird, but I think that a lot of people do this but won't admit it.
I actually read the article or post before I upvote. But usually I follow and upvote people that follow and upvote me.

Just compare the number of Views with the Votes for this post ;)
That was a real eye-opener, 102 votes, 50 reads and 24 replies (25 with this one...😀)!
Some people do read. Most don't it seems.
well said @justtryme90

I also have a fair number of automated votes :)
