Using Beempy to Improve my Curation Rewards
View this post on Hive: Using Beempy to Improve my Curation Rewards
I've moved to Hive, along with most other people, following Justin Sun's takeover of Steem in the Spring of 2020. I believe hive is a lot more decentralised than Steem!
I did a bit of fiddling over the weekend after our chat and it will be interesting to see. I agree with you the small votes voting early are benefiting and it doesn't work with a bigger vote. I did a test and was a fail lol. I am going to wait and see and just monitor. I think you are doing well if you recover your vote value back. It is all about supporting the others at the same time as maximizing your returns.
Yup well said.... I guess it would be nice to drop in at 15 mins on some of the posts in the interests of spreading value around a bit!
Interesting game to play thought, I could spend hours everyday investigating and tweaking things on steem, unfortunately there's also the day job!
I see chops isn't doing bad but could do better. Thanks for the info, I will adjust the timing a little.
Then adjust again when everyone else has adjusted theirs!
This is a real interesting analysis and I'd not seen that tool beempy.com. I'm definitely going to re-read this post when my brains are less addled to maximize my curation rewards on the autovotes I've set.
I use steemauto.com and have found it to be really good, especially as you can set it to only autovote any particular author once/day. You can more if you want but for me once a day is also the max I want to put outside of manual control. I know people who's long form content I really admire but they also use appics or one of the others to post single photos etc.
Nothing against that if it's someones thing, but if I have an auto set I at least don't end up spending massive bandwidth on to much content that doesn't float my boat.
I use steemvoter - I've seen a number of people saying they use steem auto but I just can't see the option to vote people, if I'm in the right place - the steemauto that lets you hop on curation trails? (A great way of depleting yr VP that!)
Beempy is great, it's another one of those things that's flown under my radar.
@crokkon has hacked a script that'll tell you your top ten (or presumably more) posts you voted on for curation rewards, but it's not publicly available.
I did actually just cut and paste my pending curation data from steem world into excel - it shouldn't be too difficult to clean it - that has voting weights.
One of my plans is to learn sql so I can set up queries for all this myself, the problem is my sociology blog and now my new teaching job (which are much more lucrative and FIAT -STEEM conversion is good ATM) take up so much time that the sqls gone on the back burner.
Excel it is.
I know what you mean about the multiple types of content. Steemauto might be a good option for me if i could figure out how to use it.
In steemauto it is the fanbase option m8. You basically go into the fanbase tab, search a user (without the @ sign before their username) add them as a fan and then click settings. A window will pop up where you can choose voting time, voting weight (%) and number of votes per day. Check it out. I think I went with steemauto originally because it's free.
I'm pretty sure it is the same application but ignore the curation trails section unless your doing no manual curation. As you said curation trails will kill your VP unless you got sht loads of SP. Fanbase is the way to go 😉
Also it has a neat scheduling option.

Thanks, I'll check that out after the next few mental days of work at least! On that note, better get to it!
Thank you for investigating this. You know from our earlier discussion that I've been watching curation rewards. I'm surprised sometimes by how high/low they are compared to overall post pay out. It will be interesting to see whether your rewards increase (and by how much).
It was hardly a systematic analysis.
There must be some tool where you can easily rank your best curation returns, which I wasn't trying to do here, other than cut and pasting into excel which is all I've got atm!
My method is more intuitive - I just keep a weather eye on them!
Thanks for the reminder to update my own auto-vote times. When I set my auto-vote for you, Asher wasn't regularly there before me. I guess I should move this a bit earlier ;)
But as you say, it's a dynamic system and the curation rewards have an upper bound. There's no setting where we all can win. Optimizing the own returns cuts those of all others. If everybody would adjust in the same way, we'd all lose.
I think that's something I meant to say at the end but forgot - the point about someone having to be kind enough to vote after everyone else.
I had so many other angles I wanted to focus on in this that I think I just missed that out with the changes I made.
Cheers!
P.S. is there a tool you know of that allows me to find out/ rank the curation rewards I earn on average for everyone I vote on in a certain period?

Excellent report. I’m going to check my strategy as well

Very interesting indeed and probably worthybof adjustments on my side as I have stuck with 15 minutes as a default for the few auto votes, I have. As I shift strategies in the future from buying in to earning, this will be a place I can look to improve. Beempy continues to do some great stuff!

You can set steem auto to vote only x posts every 24 hours. That way if people make multiple posts a day it will only vote 1 or wharver you make x equal to.
Thanks for sharing. When I get a chance to dig through all this I will have to start setting people up on autovote again to increase my curration rewards and still support great content consistently through autovotes.a

OK cheers, might have another look at steem auto!
Just gone through the website and checked for my account. Indeed its very nice portal and all the information nicely presented. Thanks @revisesociology for sharing.
