Yeah probably so, lol.

I actually am paying the bots because when the post reaches $10 in value my website links become "dofollow" which is valuable for seo.

And steemit has really high domain authority which can help my website rank.

So now that bots are pretty much demonized on steem, I'm not sure how things will go.

I don't even know how to tell if my post has been down voted or not!

Any suggestions?
