Alright I'm excited I'm gonna do
something today that's never been done
on this YouTube channel or on YouTube in
general I'm gonna show you tips that are
gonna help you get discovered and grow
on Twitch
let's wait wait no wait how many people
have done that video well not on YouTube
right hold on oh crap there's like
everybody's done this video how come
nobody told me I would have found out
about this alright we're gonna do a
video on streamers giving advice to
streamers well let's go!
Hey it's me it's wild coming at you from my stream support playlist where I bring you the
best tips and tricks and if this is your
first time here and you want to learn
how to grow and improve your stream make
sure you hit that big red subscribe
button and tick that bell so you know
when my videos go live for you and hey
any point this video if you like the
products or the services that I'm
talking about did you all favor I put
links in the show notes below so make
sure ya check them out so a few weeks
ago I put a tweet out on my account
and I also posted on the YouTube
community board of this channel to
submit your best idea tip or advice you
would give to other streamers and oh my
gosh was I surprised at the response I
got thank you it kind of warmed my heart
but I was surprised how much reading I
had to go through so this video is
dedicated all to the people that gave me
suggestions now just a little bit of a
warning I could only go through so many
and I picked what I think were the best
ones that are gonna help everybody grow
from different aspects from beginner to
veteran and if I mispronounce your name
don't be hurt about it that's just the
character I am and the charisma have and
the lackluster education I've got so
let's roll right into our list of all of
our tips from other streamers our first
tip comes from the streamer qualities
who wrote try to remember what viewers
and regulars say within your past
streams for instance if they had an exam
coming up and your future streams you
should ask them how it went and I think
this is a unique piece of advice and it
gets looked over a lot when you're a
beginning streamer
you're small yeah you should be
referring in referencing every question
and every comment that's written in your
channel but remembering those for future
broadcasts that are coming up is gonna
show a personal connection and those
people will continue to show up because
it shows that you're striving to be
better than just one of the normal
masses out there on the channel and to
be honest this is one of the best ways
that I actually got to grow I know a
little bit about all of my streamers now
I know up to a point you can't remember
everybody but as you're starting out and
you're reaching from affiliate
affiliates a partner you'll be surprised
at how much a little bit of information
you ask about somebody's day and you
remember something how far it will take
you our next tip comes from the streamer
chip chap 12 who wrote in he tries his
best to apply the 60/40 rule essentially
60% of your time should be used to
engage on your channel in chat and 40%
should be used to focus on the game and
I essentially use the same rule of thumb
I try to put most of my attention most
of my focus most of my engagement into
my channel and in to my community and
yeah my gameplay and my game might
suffer a little bit but trust me the
engagement factor is a must-have because
that is what's gonna separate you out on
the platform let's be honest here if
you're just showing up for gameplay
you're no different than everybody else
on the platform they're all providing
the same type of content within the
channel what makes you different what
makes you unique boom it's you and if
you can offer more of you to your
channel trust me you're gonna have
growth and you're gonna have a big
growth our next tip comes from streamer
cza caesar who wrote a really awesome
comment but the first part that he wrote
is the part that resonates most with me
and he wrote take a lot of advice and
criticism from other streamers and
viewers but don't take it all to heart
and don't take it all in and this is
great advice you should be open to
criticisms and you should be open to
ideas but you should only focus on the
ones that will resonate with you your
personality your charisma and the
community that you're trying to build
and that goes with me I give a lot of
great advice but my advice not might not
work for everyone out there there's a
lot of YouTube personalities and a lot
of twitch people they give awesome
advice but that doesn't mean it will
always work for you
but it's awesome to have an open mind
and those certain elements and aspects
there might be small pieces there that
you can use it's all about how creative
you can be but don't shut out everything
twitch essentially is a brainstorming of
ideas and you can nitpick which ones you
want and grab and refine on what you
want to use to grow so this is a cool
little tip our next tip is from Monkey
God ten who gives us one of the most
basic pieces of information but you know
it doesn't get stated enough on live
streaming platforms everybody needs to
do this pay attention let people know
when you go live and this is a common
mistake for brand new streamers there
are a plethora of ways to let your
community and your audience know when
you're going live you got a snapchat
snap it out you got an Instagram do an
Instagram story or do a little video
feed or a picture Twitter tweet it out
discord put it in your feed there there
are so many places that you can notify
people on not just on Twitter's platform
itself with the notifications and things
like that but there's these all these
other social media platforms and I'm
always surprised at how many people
don't announce that they're going live
or keep people in the loop of when
they'll be going live or even yet
letting them know if they're gonna be
delayed so this is of course an
important piece of information so make
sure you do your best to keep your
community informed our next tip comes
from the streamer X reload Z who gives
an awesome piece of information don't be
worried about the equipment you have at
the beginning as you grew as a streamer
you can make upgrades so many streamers
I see are afraid to start because they
don't think they have sufficient amount
of equipment to get going you don't need
a high quality camera
you don't need an awesome mic you don't
need over-elaborate overlays you just
need you you're gonna be the most
piercing part of content that you have
that's gonna reach out to all these
other people your charisma is gonna be
the thing that draws people in yeah you
know certain equipment will help you get
discovered but don't let that stop you
from starting your adventure and the
nice thing about this is you could be
saving money you know not a lot of
people talk
Streaming may not be for you I think you
should give it a shot but you may not
you may not enjoy it a lot of people
don't some people just like watching and
some people like playing and some people
like streaming and I don't want you to
waste all this money for something that
you're not really going to enjoy so
start with what you got and build up if
you have to heck myself I started
streaming on an Xbox 360 through the
twitch app with a Kinect camera and the
janky little headset that came with the
Xbox and that's how I started never be
ashamed of what you got at the start
next tip comes in from Gucci man 5 who
comes in super-strong with a piece of
information that is gonna help all
streamers even if they're small - super
large big streamers and it doesn't get
said enough don't over stream find a
schedule that works for your charisma
your personality and your fun factor
burnout is a real thing especially for
starting out as a brand new streamer you
need to find something that works within
your life works within your schedule
that resonates with what you can manage
and what you can handle don't burn out
we don't want that for you don't be
afraid to play around your schedule and
find something that works but when you
find something that works make sure you
let people know by adding it to your
panels and tweeting it out so that way
everybody knows when you will be going
live and stick to that time that you
pick next tip comes from a streamer
called
the paradox who gives a tip I have never
thought about this is a dope one thank
you for sharing if you're gonna stream a
game that's even oversaturated most
streamers do not pay attention to the
amount of streamers that are currently
streaming that game better in a foreign
market if most of the streamers are a
foreign market you can still find your
niche by standing out in there if you're
the only person for your country or
region or language that would be
streaming in that category and to be
honest I never thought about that if
there's a lot of like let's just say
French streamers playing a certain
particular type of game and you're the
only english-speaking streamer in there
you will get noticed by your title and
by the way that you talk in all of your
charisma that's shining through and you
will find people that are filtering in
and now that twitch actually has a
filter at the top they can sort by
English and they will find you there
this is this is actually a tip I've
never even heard
anyone ever really talk about so thank
you paradox this is a new one for me so
thank you next tip comes from one of my
favorite names that submitted a tip and
it's beaver hands dope name I love it
and he states make sure you brush them
teeth and it goes beyond that but I
understand the mantra that he has and
I'm the same way
you should really clean up your presence
on line you're creating a visual impact
in yes you are part of your visual
impact regardless if you're male or
female you should put your best foot
forward it's like dating you don't go on
a date with shabby old shirt and ripped
jeans and your hairs all matted down and
you smell no you want to make a good
first impression and that's how it is on
live streaming platforms regardless if
you're on YouTube twitch mixer or
Facebook gaming you have one first
impression and you want to make it a
good one so in addition to brushing your
teeth you know clean up your appearance
a little bit and this has a side note as
well if you can clean up your appearance
trust me you're gonna have less trouble
with trolls coming in if you can
eliminate factors of people making fun
of you which I know it's not a good
thing but trust me it's the internet bad
people are out there and I can't stop
them but if you can take away things
that you know they're not gonna have any
power over this is gonna be an awesome
way so just clean up your appearance and
nobody's gonna make fun of you on a lot
of these aspects so just you know keep
it clean hopefully you all like this
type of video and this is just part one
of this video so hold on to your butt's
because part two will be coming out in a
couple of days I'll make sure to put it
in the top right corner for all of you
to click on and in the show notes below
but thank you all to the people that's
submitted and if you'd like to continue
to grow and improve your stream don't
forget to hit that big red subscribe
button and follow my channel and stay
tuned to see if you're the tip that was
chosen in our next video coming up for
real soon take care all and peace
