I have seen so many answers to questions that are brilliant, but due to a low number of views they don't have as many upvotes as they should (IMHO).

So, if a user has an answer that they believe deserves more upvotes, is it a good tactic to start a bounty on the question so they can attract more users and in the long-term more upvotes to their answer? 

Or it is considered bad behavior, and not a good use of the bounty feature?
