Steem linkback bot v0.5: the Reddit awareness release
![](http://i.imgur.com/dwIN1cI.jpg)

# Linkback bot updates

* Linkback bot now monitors reddit for Steemit links
* Some authors generating a lot of noisy links were excluded to increase signal/noise ratio.

# Reddit linkback detection example

# Community response

# Why build a linkback bot for Steem?

* To increase follower counts of related authors by providing additional discovery mechanism
* To increase payouts for authors of high quality collections and authors whose posts are included in collections
* To increase of number of posts linking out by providing incentives to do so
* To increase number of views per visit and time spent interacting with Steem
* To increase steemit.com traffic from search engines
* For fun and profit

At this moment linkback bot is still in alpha and runs with limited capacity.

# Roadmap

Linkback bot is under development.

* Post language detection and bot i18n
* Author analytics
* Personal analytics
* Tag analytics
* Mention and linkbacks notifications by twitter, etc
* Possible link weighting by rewards
* Spam prevention features

@merej99 · 
Very cool @ontofractal - I actually find it very helpful because it allows me to follow back or leave a comment of appreciation to the people who cared to share my post. 

I don't know if you're are following each other, but you may want to see what @ausbitbank is up to, especially in Reddit and IFTTT

@smysullivan · 
So just to clarify it sounds like the link back is in a way supposed to help on our post if it is there? I'm new and working hard and trying to improve my work which seems hard.
