Twitch is hard, but these habits were the real reason I wasn't growing. Once I changed these I hit partner in about a month.

I'd like to thank that little section of hair for being the star of this video. What things have you changed since you started?
valuable sub btw
Promoting on several different platforms would have to be one of the main things I changed. That and actually putting effort in thumbnails and creating video topics and goals on what you do for games
I started looking into the camera when I respond to chat.
I started thinking more about what be beneficial to the viewer than what I want when it comes to upgrades. I invested in some proper lighting since starting to watch your videos instead of using my ceiling light. I’ve put more effort into growing on other platforms and been more critical of streaming groups offering the chance to grow with them and have since left the communities that I realized were not going to actually help me at all.
Thank you for posting. Very Educational, & helpful video's. I hope you have an awesome Thanksgiving..
UPVOTE TO SAVE TIMES & LIVES
1. Your stream won't grow insanely quick or fast while you're live. Make UA-cam content instead.
2. Networking doesn't work like you think it will. You can't network your way to stardom.
3. Quit chasing brands and sponsorships and ads.
4. Looking for shortcuts in growing your channel can backfire and hurt you.
5. Don't be afraid to put down the games and Just Chat!
Thank you dude!
we save time but also reduce the amount of view time this channel recieves
@@luisgllardo that's a logic mistake. The truth is that we ve added view time to this channel until we saw this comment :,)
Thank you
thank you
"Don't neglect just chatting"
*Me having 0 viewer during a 12-hour stream*
Well, mistakes were made.
me having 0 viewers playing minecraft but 24 viewers just talking 😃👍
@@stranger1885 me having 3 viewers but no one's chatting.
@@JustFrank27 broo same
I saw a video where the guy said even if you have 0 viewers it’s still important to talk. Talk to yourself, that way you get good at it. Then the next time someone pops into your stream, they’ll hear you talking and it’ll make them more likely to stick around.
Because the content streamers give isn’t necessarily the gameplay itself, but the interaction with the audience and the interesting commentary they add
@@RyandBurtson I never even thought of that. It makes me feel better about just rambling in my newest livestream I did today. 😂
Me: I'm just streaming to have fun, I don't care much about getting tons of followers
Also me: ooooohhh a growth tips video 👁👄👁
Wots ur twitch?
A fellow hetalian, okay, thats enough for me, you have a new follower m8
same lol
Me 2 :)
lmaooo
How people stream:
Step 1: stream everyday
Step 2: quit after a month because they're not famous
yeah, it's same with relationship or getting a job or losing weight. At one point you have to stop and commit to the thing you doing and break through
@@XelaShade honestly it's kind of sad
@@aydensutton yeah, life is not fair
True
ive met quite a few people recently on twitch who streamed for 6 months to a year before having any regular viewers and even longer than that without having affil. ive met a couple that got affil in like 2 or 3 weeks. both of those things really put it into perspective that it can be a chance thing. it may not happen for a lot longer than the year even. but eventually youll have at least one person come in and say hi that you can start to build a bond with and more will follow after that.
"So STOP SPAMMING YOUR LINKS IN MY DISCORD"
LOL. that got me good.
Self promotion is like d2d sales--dead and flat out obnoxious
Did anyone else tug their collar when he said that or just me?
"you don't grow while you are live"
*streams 24h*
THERE WAS A REASON WHY
i didnt get the joke
@@sahilbhosale5754 dumm
@@ccarpyxfish1536tell me
The likes are 666 nobody else like now
Meaning you need to have a channel for a wider audience isn't it ? It isn't sounding like a joke I guess. Plz explain
Timestamps for those people who want to skip to the point
1:58 You don't grow while you are live
4:07 Networking is not as important as you think
5:24 Companies talk (don't beg for sponsor ships too early)
6:08 Shortcuts hurt you more than you think
8:26 Don't neglect Just Chatting
You're welcome. Have a nice day!
thx

Thank you!
When he said “except jake Paul” 😂 like and subbed instantly
"Idk anybody but Jake Paul" had me laughing out loud.
Was about to type the same thing 🤣🤣
im crying hahahah
I'm crying too but I didnt
Jacob Randolph timestamp?
Hahaha
"i did all of those 5 things wrong"
*gets blacklisted for lurk botting*
Haha I feel like I should clarify. I never joined Royale or did lurk4lurk. I just remember looking for quick numbers early on.
Dude - this was a good list! I agree with all of them! I did them wrong too!
yep
Literally just streaming for fun is the best!!! And the fact that people come and actually support you is mind boggling to me! I was streaming for fun and gained 3 new followers and like bros! So so awesome!!
this. i started streaming on twitch to use it as basically a screen share for my brother and sister who live away from me and in different areas from eachother. that was in like 2016... i just hit affil a couple days ago because i decided to keep doing it for fun and now there are probably 15ish people that i would say are friends that i met all through twitch that i regularly talk to and a fair bit more that i at least recognize the names of. its really cool. and if i never grow past where i am im honestly fine with that. it was all just for fun/friends to begin with anyway
@@mistermfmike You should add your twitch link to ur videos and to your channel bio!
Makes me so sad when I see twitch streamers putting in tons of hours a day on twitch, just to stream with 1 viewer. It's so unnecessary, thanks for making these videos you really helped me out a ton.
Makes me sad too *cough* glad I made it to this video
LoL that's so not me cough cough. My current record 7 Hour stream with like 2 viewers.
It’s sad and as a business move makes sense, but I wish twitch would guide you more into it letting you know that using your whole day only on twitch won’t work at the beginning. A bit more moral/human rather than so Corp based.
How? Not everyone on Twitch is streaming to make it ”fulltime”
Value is key
You're the guy that made me start my "career" by working smart. Now, a year later, I do 1-3 videos a week on UA-cam(recently started with my UA-cam channel), stream 4-5 days a week (scheduled) & I think I'm growing pretty fast at the moment. I would like to thank you for making these videos brother, they are appriciated! Keep up the good work man^^
MrTeeHee do you have any tips for me
Damn. Do you work a day job? I commend you for this. I'm trying! Busting my ass 24/7
Your channel definitely looks professional. Good luck!
Update folks, I worked way to hard with the whole twitch thing so I burned myself out. Protip, dont do that haha.. I learned a LOT from it though. Even though this year has been rough with all the stress and recovery that I had to do, I learned a whole lot from it.
1. Listen to your body. If you feel stressed OVER a longer period of time, take a step back and think again. Is it really worth it to work this hard?
2. If it’s not ”fun” anymore, and its just a thing that you feel like ”you have to do”. Think again, do you really have yo push yourself right now, or can you rethink it all?
3. Idk, just take care dammit. I love you all. Thanks flr the support😍
soaphope Thank you so much, now it’s all tiktok😂✌🏻 (mrteehee1) LUL
i watched this
K
no you didn't
Same
Ok
@@ComikazieTV every one does
Thanks for these! I feel like the chatting part is the best part. That's really the reason to stream, is to have folks to share some moments with and just chat. Though of course, the gaming and creating music or whatever is going to be an important part as well.
Again, thanks for the tips!
This is actually all around great advice. In relationships, in business, and in fulfillment. Give first, then ask. It's always about the value you put out into the world.
The best trick is to have those one on one conversations with your audience. So effective guys don't neglect just chatting 😉
How to get people chatting tho? I've engaged as much as I can bringing up open ended topics and stuff and trying to get to know them and have a good time but nobody replies or leaves as soon as I start talking.
@@iliketrains263 You have to be patient. Just keep posting (be consistent) & ppl will want to talk eventually or create interesting content that can't be ignored imo
This video was awesome and excattly what i needed! I've just really stumbled into streaming so these are some really good pointers to keep in mind. Thank you sooo much!!
Nice lights - and even better tips man. Thank you, this is great content to watch as someone thinking of making the jump into streaming!
the part where you talked about just chatting and saying the viewers name when talking couldnt be more true! it just happened the other night while you were just chatting and you said bye to me. little things like that mean the most and makes me want to come back for everystream! thank you harris for the amazing content and as always happy streaming.
robbietabobby why you actin like he’s a god bruh he’s a regular ass human who is irrelevant to this world
Great tips, thanks for uploading! Literally just getting started this week, trying to soak up all the info I can!
Since watching this, I'm definitely changing my stream up a little bit!
Thank you for this! It was much needed :D
1:58 skip the intro and go straight to the point
nearly 2 minutes... not that bad
i've seen worse
talking about net vpn or something like that for 5 minutes xD
NuggetnChill His commentary is great though 💯
AUTO BABY yeah true not like other annoying UA-cam’s
It sounds like he's talking alot about the same thing though. That kinda tricks your brain to make you think it all makes sense.
WHY tf doesn't he put *TIMESTAMPS*
"anybody but Jake Paul"
*instantly subscribes*
It felt amazing when my first subs on youtube called me theyr favorit youtuber.. even if ur very small.. to see how glad they are to spend there time in ur stream or on ur channel! Have to start again with streaming and making yt videos!
I love the input you have on growth and can't wait to apply them to my own streams and vids.
*goes to just chatting section*
*sees girls doing yoga not reading chat*
Theres a market for that!
Shibby120 yea not on a gaming platform.
@@TruIyDead TO be fair, twitch isn't only a gaming platform though
Truly Dead yea I don’t even stream games. Just my podcast and the occasional music stream
@@chynnam4868 why lectures , teaching courses, etc don't come to twitch ? Twitch is better than UA-cam for live classes And in India so less UA-camrs make in twitch . Not even top UA-camrs
I REALLY like your perspective. I've been making UA-cam videos and I'm now getting into twitch and I started approaching it as the more I stream the more I will succeed. But I really like your idea of making dedicated content another platform and then bringing people over to Twitch. Thank you for your great explanation!
Thank you for this! I agree 100% and I’ve learned so much
So I absolutely just started but it's incredibly intimidating to balance everything and I think you have some pretty sound advice. Happy to know I'm at least doing 1 of the things right :D now to improve the others!!
Just getting started streaming and I REALLY appreciate this information!
Hey dude really enjoyed this. Great insight on something I’m trying to delve into , Thank you
I've started youtube and I'm about to start streaming as well. By far, out of all the videos I've watched, your guidelines and tips are so genuine and well thought out. I subbed just so I can learn more
thank you for this, especially the just chatting one, when i do start streaming ill include a just chatting section at the begginning or end, or maybe both and maybe do a just chatting stream every once and a while
"Imaging your favorite youtuber...... Anybody but Jake Paul"
You made my day
Alpha Gaming's videos helped me grow from literally nothing to having 6k+ subscribers and almost 1million views this mans a wizzard. Listen up everyone!!!
He is legendary
What was your time frame?
@@HypaXLink Started in March of 2019 took me about 7-8 months to get to 6k subscribers but i literally started with ZERO
@@Reapingofsouls Oh Nice. I'm trying to get consistent with streaming on Mixer and Facebook gaming now, but since I mostly play Apex I wanna make those funny weekly edit videos that seem to get the UA-cam editor guys lots of views. I never thought about using that to also advertise for my stream channel as well.
I am about to start so this info is really helpful! I will definitely use this advice ❤️
You’re one of the greats man. Severely underrated. Hope to catch one of your streams sometime!
Wow, I came into this video expecting a bunch of shit I already knew, or at best some slightly redundant info, but all of these are really insightful and also genuine. Respect!
My plan for now is to grow a audience on youtube then start streaming.
Name Here streaming’s way easier to build a community then UA-cam just an opinion I thought I’d say good luck
XtraZest I think you get more people to see your content on UA-cam but you build a real community on twitch
@@TRead04 Thanks!
@@dane6569 Yeah I agree
That's what I did, I gain 100 subs on UA-cam then started streaming on UA-cam, gain 500 subs switch over to twitch n now have a small following
Well I already enjoying playing video games and a lot of my own reaction in games just crack myself up, so I say why not put it on twitch so ppl can enjoy my personality on top of the gameplay lol also it helps me to get out of my comfort zone, cuz I’m very shy
I’m not looking to get famous or become rich, just a way for me to help and influence others the best way I can, I started making youtube videos first before twitch and I found it helps me out a lot to get comfortable talking in front of the camera lol
I started streaming mostly because I wanted to get myself to keep 'working' on videos, without worrying about recording and editing, and more spontaneous stuff.
And while I do want to earn some money by streaming, I don't want to make a ton. Just 'some'. If possible, about 100€ or a little above that would be great. A 'goal', if you will. Just so I can have a bit of money coming in while I'm unemployed, maybe help me get new/great games more easily so I can share them on stream again.
Happy for you but know there’s thousands of other ppl who think the same thing
I find myself in the same situation, way to shy but i wanted to do streaming from long ago, and never got the courage to go for it until recently, a rlly good way to go out of your comfort zone though, but it's also very hard and maybe i will get discouraged in the meanwhile ~.~
Well said :)
Me too tho 😂 😂 😂
Love this content! Adding this stuff to my excel of do's and don'ts!
Hey! Thanks for the tips man. I've literally had to do just this (former Mixer partner), start over on Twitch and rebuild. Good to know I'm doing the right things. Appreciate the help!
You’ve helped me stream on youtube and learning to grow
"You don't grow while your live" I agree so muuuuuuch, bro! I feel as if youtube video creation/content has a longer lasting appeal.
Dang dude, thank you so much for this insight! This is something I REALLY needed to hear! *subscribed*
Trying to begin streaming and finding your vids so helpful brother. Thanks for the great content!
I was confused why I started feeling like a real man when watching this and then I looked at ur channel name
I'm doing music on twitch since September. I found out that having a song request system like the songlistbot really improved retaining my viewers because they wait for their songs to be played during my stream. Raiding other people (under your advice) really started to have an impact on having other people joining my stream for the mere fact that they are intrigued. Laslty, recently changing my name from lechence to LechenceMusic really had an impact on new people discovering me on the platform. Adding music to my name gave me some more discoverability I guess. I grew about 500 followers this month by streaming 3 to 4 times a week with a schedule. That's it. Thanks again for the great advices!
Very good points! Thanks for posting, and definitely you are right with all of them 👌🏻
Thank you for this thoughtful and entertaining video. I'm just starting out and I found this incredibly helpful to set my expectations and context. All the best to you.
You know today while I was at work... I was search the net for something like this... You're absolutely right... Keep up the great work
Good tip for you all, especially for someone who starting to stream. Know what your getting yourself into. It cost most to stream but not record(not much) . And even if you have the money to stream , it takes allot time, and commitment. Not trying to discourage anyone to give it up or not stream but warning those who are deciding. People want to see personality. If you want people to watch you play games, make entertain them. Show them excitement ,a show, play games and talk or play good , something interesting, be creative. Remember it’s a part of label you and valuing . If your doing it for money (it takes time and commitment) don’t rush into it , it doesn’t happen over night. Hope this help anyone of you all
ProdiJ start with whatever u have man . You have to be consistent because the people who follow your stream and stuff they want you be like alright this guy stream is cool ,all the sudden your gone and you didn’t come back they look for another streamer to follow because they could be like you looking for followers too and they want to build up their stream. Be consistent. It depends on you and everyone else who streams, is it a job or a hobby?
ProdiJ I see, if it’s a hobby you won’t make much unless u get from donations and tips. If it’s for hobby then haha just do it 💪
I work quite a bit and was going to stream for fun. I'm not into it to make money but rather something extra to do when I play.
Just wanted to say thank you bud! you have helped and inspired me allot to push forward with my streaming! I have already begun to make these mistakes and this video has guided me. Happy streaming :P
Hey Harris, started watching your videos yesterday and am really enjoying the content. As a new content creator I really appreciate your knowledge and time, thanks for sharing!
atm You & Weest.
"So stop spamming your links in my discord" *nearly spit out my food
Just starting out with UA-cam and twitch and I find your videos so helpful! Thanks for the helpful content 😇
I'm so glad I watched this video. It's going to help me so much on this journey. I was thinking that these steps were better than what I have been seeing. And this video brought light to it! Love it and thank you!
Just earned a sub when he said “anybody but jake Paul” lmaoo
“Everybody but Jake Paul”
I felt that 😂
Thanks heaps! I have in a lucky way started with UA-cam before streaming and didn't know if it was right. Your videos was my clarification! Just found your channel ✌️
I've been thinking of starting a stream for a little bit and this was super helpful!
You literally stopped me from doing the first four things. Thank you so much.
Honestly, I think this helps out a lot with some mental barriers. I began streaming a couple weeks ago, and it’s just a drag when no one shows. I got down and out because daily I didn’t see growth, but when I think over these 3 weeks I’ve actually grown to where I’m at 30 followers and steadily growing. I really appreciate the time put into the video! It’s immensely helpful.
Thanks for the helpful info, this will help me out alot! Good luck to you!
this was incredibly helpful! thank you so much for this video
I didn't know that Tom Felton had a career on UA-cam
I "like" how people say 'network' and then don't tell people how to properly network, like how to get in touch, who to get in touch with, how to format/word emails/DMs, ect.
Thanks man, certainly sound advice. I've made a few mistakes. But watching this was refreshing and good for me. Brings you back and makes you realise what you can improve on.
Thanks for the tips!! Excited to start my twitch channel!
This is the kind of video I’ve been waiting for!!! Thank you Harris! 🤘
the Wayne Gretzky quote!!! Had me dying lmaooo
DNPThree 😳😳 it’s really you. The man the myth the legend 🤘🏼🤘🏼
Even the big bois need tips.👀
Dude, the 5th is super important, well done for calling it out, regardless whether your big or small that's the key to engaging. Awesome video dude 👏👏👏
I'm just getting into streaming and this video has helped so much!! Thank you 👍
I love that last point a lot. Upon reflection, I see where I'm modeling the behavior of "just get to the game because that's what people are here for" based on the toxicity of viewers in other channels that I watched get banned.
Whereas now, a lot of the streamers that are growing and doing well are taking that time to Just Chat with their audience and it's building that interactive relationship.
Also - Thank you for saying networking doesn't help as much as you'd think.
Also - RIP Jake Paulers lol
"dont stream in public bathrooms" LMAO
You the chatter interaction thing is so spot on. I mostly frequent the streams of people I can get an interaction out of.
thank you for this video, I just started this whole streaming thing and this really helps me out 👍
Dropping the best content on streaming
Hey dxtr
What’s your take on podcasting as “off twitch” content? Discoverability seems hard there too, and it would have to relate to your stream content yeah?
I really enjoyed the first tip most. Good video, you gained my follow and sub haha
loved this. your content is so refreshing and educating. thank you for sharing 🙏
"Stop spamming your links on my discord" ..... Also, everywhere else. Spamming is a dead art .... you're really only pissing people off when you spam .... like anywhere
i feel like their is a certain time to do just chatting, like when you have regular followers viewers? great tips though
This is very helpful, Harris! Thank you! 😊 subscribed
Im a bigtime lurker when it comes to UA-cam, I may like but I never comment but I just want to say that some of your videos have been incredibly insightful and I want to thank you for that. Keep up the good work.
“Don’t Neglect Just Chatting”
I will watch a whole video on this!
I only am able to do short streams, 1hr 30min - 2 hours at most, maybe still cut a short bit of time out at the start or finish? I kinda already do it a little bit.
Malcolm Millan hey there, it’s www.twitch.tv/IAmAllstin 😄
My biggest viewership is when I do Just Chatting. Made me ask myself: "Am I interesting?" Definitely a great way to build a community, relationships, and loyalty - it also strengthens a consistency in your chat.
I've been streaming for a few years and never done a just chatting stream. I think I'll try it out. Thank you!
Adam Klase There's a lot of weirdos browsing through Just Chatting lol
Yo thank you for making beats I’ve really appreciated them and ran into you beacause I’ve started streaming but your beats r insane for background music chill or nail bitting moments I really appreciate it from the bottom of my heart THANKS 🙏🏼
this was great! thanks for sharing helpful information. i'll be sure to follow your twitch channel.
Started clapping when you mentioned how bad Royale is.

This was so, so helpful. Thank you for the advice 💕
I’ve just started uploading on UA-cam again, I missed the editing. I’ve been posting edited twitch videos. So Far so good!
I'm scared that I will sit in Just Chatting awkwardly talking to myself and running out of things to say after 10 minutes. I usually just play a game, so that I have *something* to talk about then monkaS But maybe i should start adding some just chatting segments in the end or so
Young Lauri I feel the same lol.
Same, I'll talk for about a minute or so to myself and then run out of things to say. Then I try to talk about things about the game or what I'm doing and just kinda stop since I know no one is watching. I'd like to post my streams on youtube, but I know there's a limit to what people are willing to watch I just don't know that limit lol.
@@cilirhammersteel5515 You really should try and talk the whole time! I hate it when i browse other small streamers and they don't talk or just look at their phone the entire time.
I talk soooo much nonsense like how long this loading screen is etc. and also I repeat myself very much haha since no one was listening to it before, no one will notice that i already talked about it...
Hm i'm not sure about uploading whole streams to youtube. I think it's better to limit yourself to your "highlights" on stream.
It might take a while to fill a 10 minute video, but imo it's much more worth than uploading all the awkward pauses inbetween.
Something that just came to my mind (not sure if its a good idea haha), what if you send your funny segments or insane gameplay to a "Twitch highlights" Channel here on youtube. Your name still gets out there without having to stream for 6 months until you finally have enough material.
Sorry for my long answer, I kinda got carried away
Same here. I started streaming 2 weeks ago on Facebook. I asked 4 of my friends to comment as i stream just to get me going - it worked.
I tend to talk about things that I myself consume. Like fave movies and television shows. Or video games and gaming news, pop culture and UA-camrs and their vids. You can even bait conversation with strong opinions 😉
Thank you Harris. Honestly was thinking doing the royal in discord . Great advice .
Just started streaming very recently, and this was super helpful. Thank you so much for sharing!
