Need Advice for twitch
7 months ago
General
It's very often that I like to ask for help. But I suppose I might as well ask here.
I need help on trying to do better for Twitch. I engage with my audience, I let people know when I stream on all my social media platforms and chats. But I still haven't broken any grounds. I can't exactly afford the fancy setups like most people have. I don't really have a team or crew to make the channel bigger. I'm sitting at 95 followers, but that doesn't really amount to the people that actually show up to my stream which is less than 10 people at a time. Despite the fact that I donate, give bits and subs to other channels...NO ONE really reciprocates the favor.
Most of my friends don't even tune in when I go live on Sunday nights. However, that's really the only night I can stream due to the fact that I work every other day of the week. I switch up my games every so often to prevent complacency or be boring. However I am still not breaking ground.
Like I said, I don't have the funds to really give myself a good and fancy set up. I only have a couple of PNGtubes to really utilize and I'm not sure what else I need to do to get people to come. I feel like I'm chasing waterfalls and just hitting headfirst into the bottom of the pond only to float lifelessly.
So I ask you people, what do I need to do to help increase traffic to my streams??

Get comfortable with talking to yourself, as well. It's an important skill to have, both when you're starting out and when you're getting popular.
Also, just be aware that evenings are a very competitive time frame for streaming, as that's when most streamers are going to be... well... streaming, so people are going to be split on who to watch.
But most importantly... don't worry about channel growth. So long as you stick to a consistent schedule, you will see growth, but it'll happen at a very slow pace, especially if you're only streaming one day a week. Just stick to playing the game and interacting with chat when possible.
