Congratulations!!! :))

I have managed to get more than 3.2 with upvoting bots. I paid 1.3 SBD for that, so without curation, I will get 1,3 SBD and 1,3 steem power (free steem power here). You just need to be careful which bot to pay.

I got 17 upvotes form higher ranking users (bots) and that raised my ranking level from 33.3 to 35.5

And what is more important, something is happening ! :))

It's not much, but can be scaled up. I just didn't have more SBD on the account. With some clever and moderate investment, you can get even on trending page and pick up some additional votes and follows from there.

Good luck!
