Summary of January 2018 Results!
The most successful ad on Facebook can be seen at https://www.facebook.com/jbanfield/videos/1517754641578040/ which features a video intended to help Facebook users discover the value of Steem!
Our newest ad with the most impressions focused on helping ignite excitement about Steem in the cryptocurrency world as seen at https://www.facebook.com/jbanfield/videos/1661161520570684/. I decided to pause this ad and will try again with different ad text because the costs have been too high so far per share and page like.
Ads for https://utopian.io/ reached 61,388 github users on Facebook.
I focused about $100 this month specifically to South Korea where exchanges like https://upbit.com/ have helped cryptocurrency prices rise especially Steem!
My goal with the ads is to get the best results for the lowest price which has consistently happened since starting the ads in June 2017.
Plans for February 2018!
In February I will be submitting 25 posts from other users to Google for ads along with a matching video on Facebook from https://steemit.com/budget/@jerrybanfield/the-top-25-steem-posts. I will also be including the video from @tomasgeorge in the ads along with testing more ads of my own.
We have over $5,000 remaining on payments already sent from @budgets to cover the ads for February and my hope is to hold off on sending more payments until Steem is $10+!
Funding!
We funded this through payments from @budgets which earns through bids and delegations to my account's voting bot. Every day the bids from the voting bot pay out as follows: 45% of the bids received each day to @budgets to fund more projects, 45% back automatically to delegators in daily payments equal to about 1/1000 of the Steem power delegated, 5% to the bot operator @steembottracker, and 5% to @jerrybanfieldroi for my 104,000+ Steem power contributed effectively giving me a fractional percentage of what the rest of the delegators receive that I mostly use to upvote posts with my bot. While other bots may pay a higher percentage to the delegator, the ideal scenario for an investor is to both receive a return AND have the price of Steem go up. All the projects @budgets funds are intended to raise the value of Steem and therefore the price of Steem. Anyone can add the tag #budget to a post on a project intended to grow Steem and have a chance to receive funding! I like funding lower cost projects with clear goals like meetups, ad campaigns, and new apps.
If you have not voted for me yet as a witness, will you please join now over 4,000 of us placing a vote for me at https://steemit.com/~witnesses because every witness vote helps increase the funding indefinitely along with helping me represent the future of Steem as a witness? If you think you have voted already, will you double check that the green checkmark is active next to my name because many of us have tried to vote multiple times and ended up removing the vote the second time?
If you would like to convert some or all of your Steem power to passive income payments each day and help fund all growth projects for Steem including these ads, will you please use the tutorial I uploaded yesterday to delegate Steem power to me at https://steemit.com/steem/@jerrybanfield/65wju0wr because the delegations help increase the voting power of my account which is used exclusively as a voting bot?
If you want me to upvote your post, will you please send a transfer to me of at least 1 SBD or 1 Steem with the link to your post in the URL because these are how the bids work on the bot? I recommend timing it with https://steembottracker.com/ for the best return.
Thank You!
