You killed me on the part saying "And I don't mean literally narrating every single action you taken now I'm walking down the path, and now I'm opening the door! lmao 🤣🤣🤣
Thank you for the tips! I'm going to try these out! Just started streaming last week and so far 47/50 followers! Makes me hype everytime people come in!
Thank you so much for the tips brother I definitely took these tips under consideration under my notes for improvement thank you so much!! Happy streaming!
Good tips, great video! Helps as a beginner streamer that's for sure. Only thing is, I don't know about anyone else but I was drawn to your eyes and it was so hard to focus! I had to keep snapping myself out to focus back on those tips!
I feel like these tips only work for certain types of people with very specific personalities. I just don't have it though I've seen so many of these videos and have been on twitch for years and have maybe topped off at 2 people watching/actively chatting..
Art streams are so much fun! 😄 - When I stream 3D Art and Game Development, I usually just try to talk through my process as I'm working - because I don't know about your personal artistic process - but for me, I have an inner monologue with myself working through things - and I just try to vocalize that.
I am doing twitch live streams since 1 year but I don't talk in live intentionally. My dad loves to listen music in full high volume and he uses a speaker. The problem is we live in a rental house, the rooms are very small and we have just drawing room, kitchen, very small and narrow hall and bedroom so the music he listens to will get recorded in my live. My voice is naturally more louder than other people so, if I got excited and screamed or made noises when getting excited during gameplay, the neighbors would complain to the landlord about how much noise pollution I was making. I think I should stop streaming unless I move to a new house where I have solely have my own room, and not share room anymore. Or if anyone have some other ideas, please share
Always look into your microphone recording threshold. You can increase that threshold (in game settings or your recording software like OBS) to get rid of background noise that you don’t want in your stream. Just keep in mind the higher your increase it, the less your mic will pick up and your voice may not record at all levels (as in your voice will need to be a certain decibel to be heard consistently) just play around with the threshold and see if you can get a nice balance where the music won’t be heard. Hope this helps!
"Your viewers are there for you"... FALSE. They are there for content. Some people offer different content, but that does not mean it's the person they are there for. Unless you're a female.
@@moldorm30 thats weird, how people have 1000 vieweers when someone has 240p stream :) Its called supporting their streamers, you dont know what you are talking about so just sip it.
Don’t give up man. When I gave it all that I had I jumped 40 followers in a week. I just started man. Gotta be willing to put the time. Not every dollar in your bank but some. I try to play what’s new and hot to stream
I did this last night for the first time, cause most of my views are my vod streams so I decided to be more interactive for them, use my just chatting scenes to open and close my streams and it went really well, I got some people that stopped by probably cause they saw me talking and asked what game I should stream next for my next Let's Play series and overall had really fun and got more views. I highly recommend this tactic for newer streamers cause this works.
This is so awesome! I’m a very introverted person and don’t really know how to make conversation so I was worried about how it was going to go, but your tips really helped me loosen up! Thanks a lot ^^
A year of streaming and I'm still at 0 viewers. Got so bad, I stopped streaming for a couple months. I want to start over and do this right this time..
„Stop referring to your Viewers as Chat“ YES YES YES! Thank you! I always cringe when a streamer refers to their viewership just as „chat“ Very great video!
Just started streamin' for fun 'cause why not? Have like a lot of games I never played. ;_; Whenever i have no viewers i try talking about my nooby gameplay or other random stoofs. I'm usually quiet but if someone like talks in the chat thingy I respond to em :'D Actually got 1 legitimate follower. Idk how 'cause I have nothing on my twitch page but my cat pic :') Thanks for the class, Professor Stream :)
Im planning on streaming, but a helpful tip I've seen a lot of friends do is playing online games with a voice chat function. That way, you can talk to your fellow players instead of to just yourself if that scares you (though you don't have to forget to engage with chat if someone does talk there)
Sometimes I've found it helpful to talk about an unpopular opinion. Not on something politically or religiously charged, just something inconsequential like, I dunno, putting ketchup in your mac and cheese or liking the 8th Star Wars movie over the others. It's not a huge deal, but it's something that most people watching will have a different opinion on. It's a good tool to just get people engaged who might drop in for a short while.
Mental health makes it difficult to make friends, putting in the work, doing everything you say to do, I do, and yet Twitch is a dud. So what is your advice when people actually do these things and still get nothing?
I think it depends, what are you streaming or what is your "usual" content? How long do you stream for a day/week? Do you promote your twitch on other social media sites? Do you want to do it as a job or just for run? The reality is it can often take a long time to start properly growing, can be frustrating but it happens :(
I'm autistic and I'm scared of being heard by people or even make any sound. Surprisingly I wanted ti become a streamer and a content creator because I genuinely enjoy such things. Yet my stress is so high when I'm supposed ti start streaming as if my whole world will collapse. And yet here i am watching this video while trying to prove to myself that nothing will go wrong with my stream and there's no need for fear. I think i will watch this video back to back till I successfully calm down. Thank you for a great advice!
A lot of this makes sense - I definitely agree with having a friend join for chat I've recently been streaming Remnant II and have had my friend join on Discord and I have that coming through the stream. People seem to really enjoy listening to the dynamic. Be very careful though that you actually TRUST the person who you are having on stream, you are the one who is responsible for your stream and what is said. I also have other friends I trust, but wouldn't have them on stream because they can be rather thoughless with what they say 😅
You should talk as if you have an audience whether you have viewers or not. If someone stops in your stream and just sees someone with a blank expression on their face playing a game, they're probably going to click away pretty quickly without ever interacting. People want to be entertained - not just watch some person play video games.
