RE: Steem from your bot?
Thanks Harley, upvoted and followed. 👍
I got that same message about his "sister",
probably another resteemer milking people's steem 👎

Nope. Sister is @joanaltres. Funny how you are ragging on it but you used it to boost this post. Lol. And from what I see, you've gained about $5 - more upvotes and comments from the @carlobelgado resteem.
Not ragging on it Jorge, just kinda odd that we received the same message. I used them to resteem this post in order to receive feedback from others who've also used their service to see what their experiences have been, and if people had any suggestions or recommendations. The post is titled "Steem from your bot" for a reason.
As for additional upvote value and comments, they were a combined total from @Booster, @randowhale and @minnowbooster upvotes and not from any of the resteems I made, they only added a few additional cents, and I used several resteeming services on this one, not just the two you mentioned. As a matter of fact, you can see the many negative responses I received from others who have used these resteeming services, and people don't seem to feel they're worth it.
So considering the overall value, I would recommend upvoting bots over resteeming bots, given my returns on this post regarding the subject.
I appreciate that there are steemians willing to provide this service, however, I also feel that it is my responsibility as a new member of the community to review and publicly post my assessment of these services, for other users who may be looking for tools to increase their traffic, and allow a forum like this for them to provide feedback and share their experiences.
I also understand that there are jurisdictions where the value of steem is significantly higher in relation to their local currency, which makes resteeming posts for 1 or 2 SBD, a very lucrative passive income for those individuals.
In the end this is not about making money from steem, but how to boost your presence on the platform, get more views, initiate conversation, and increase followers. If that garners more upvotes and steem, great. But if people are spending 1 or 2 SBD, only to get a return of only 0.30 or 0.40, I don't feel it's really worth their time and effort, and I wanted to start a conversation on the subject to see what others had experienced, and as you can see, most of the feedback was negative.
I was right though, "Sister" is another resteemer, just as I suspected. I respect their right to try and make a passive income on Steem, but like any other business model, they need to expect constructive criticism on their modus operandi, and not take it so personally as you did.
