    Question Getting Automatic Retweets For Certain Hashtags

    Hi guys,

    I've noticed that if I use the hashtag #growthhacking that I get a tweet automatically "liked" and "retweeted" by a number of accounts that seem to be bots with high follower counts. I've been playing with this and came up with #startups as getting some of the same kind of attention. I've searched to see if anyone had been talking about this sort of thing and what could be done to leverage it in one way or another. I figure at the least that it's some sort of increased social signal for your tweets to be engaged by more people.

    Any thoughts, suggestions or experience with this?

    Why do you think that getting liked / retweeted by bots for hashtags not relevant to your site helps you at all ?

    These can't be the only accounts doing this, and the accounts I've seen doing it have a ton of followers. If accounts like this for topics even tangentially related to gambling could be found, then hopefully you see where I'm going with this.

    Any luck with finding anything relevant to betting?

    Same is happening to me on Instagram. Seems that hashtags are magnets for spammers..

    Not seen this before, so doing my research now

    if there spammers are doing this, then it usually has a good benefit.

    if I find anything will update you.
