    Definitely think the worst thing I do is doubt myself. It's disheartening when you're not growing or gaining viewers, but there's always the enjoyment of whatever you're doing now and the hope of tomorrow. :p

      DaleDystopiq This is exactly what I'm doing on my new Twitch channel. I'm doing it for the entertainment. I figured, hey, I'm going to be playing this game anyways, might as well stream to *possibly* get a viewer or two!

    • @HeyyItsDalee
      @HeyyItsDalee 9 років тому

      TheNaway18 Absolutely. That's was the entire point to me first wanting to stream. I've slowly been raising a community and it's great that we're just all having laughs over what I'm doing. One of the most rewarding and greatest feelings in the world. What types of games are you going through? Wouldn't mind hopping on someday.

      I've been playing a lot of Ark: Survival Evolved. It's fairly new but you've probably heard of it. It's been pretty fun to do. Also, my Twitch is under the name Synocity which is my new self on the internet. What's yours, and what do you play? I can probably pop on over as well!

    • @HeyyItsDalee
      @HeyyItsDalee 9 років тому

      TheNaway18 I..actually haven't heard of it. I'll check it out ahah. My Twitch is under HeyyItsDale, and I've been doing a lot of Dark Souls recently, though I just started a bllind Fallout: New Vegas playthrough. No idea what I'm doing or where I'm going lol. Used to do some Legend of Mana speedruns too, which I try to fit in on the weekends when I have time!

    Thank god, someone who FINALLY talks straight about this subject & stays on topic. I'm an older guy (50+) who's been looking into doing streaming & it's been VERY difficult to get straight & complete answers on what you need to know. Well done sir. Kudos to you & your folks, who I am sure had a bunch to do with your good attitude & non-bs approach. Impressive. My thanks.

    Let me tell you the story of Da7acoMAN. He was a younglad with a dream. To become a full time streamer. This young lad was also a college student. He also decided to leave his console brothers during the cripto mining wars. Due to his horrible timing he overpaid for a computer. He decided to not drop out of college because he got financial aid that could be used to support his streaming career. He did this and now is about to become a nutritionist without even knowing because all his focus was on his stream. So what we learned was be like Da7acoMAN, follow your dreams and you can become a nutritionist. Or go watch him on twitch, he doesn't want to become a nutritionist.

      @seansmith3222 10 років тому +2

      yeah man show your day to day when you get up what you eat i think it would be great you got an act for it :) been on youtube for a while i would suggest making another video if you watch like christianguzman a bodybuilder but his day in the life vlogs hes taken us with him and weve seen him grow and you really get a personal connection without actually connecting and he shows us his house his mum what hes eating his girlfreind his new gym the gym hes moving into hes prepared to meet people and train irl etc it just bring fan closer and i think youd be good for it

    I can see the logic behind what you say with "don't go into it for money." However, I disagree with this concept, but perhaps it is just my case or my mentality. I'm looking more to make a career out of this. Making bank isn't my mindset, but rather using videos and streaming to have fun and to live a happy life, and then to continually give back to others to help them reach that happiness as well. The money aspect is going to be the means just to survive so I can continue to help others and continue to be happy. Other than that, money is of no value to me. The content ideas I have and wish to start are for the sake of entertaining others and doing things I feel are original and would be fun to make on a daily basis. Sure, making stuff that people want to see is undoubtedly going to go into that, because for the last 7 years I've made stuff purely for me and a middle finger to the public, and they didn't do much. There's no impact, no feedback, nothing. I think it's a matter of sitting down, digging deep in your thoughts, and finding out ideas that you would want to do that you also think others would want to see. And perhaps that's the silver line I want to ride as far as going into it "for the money."
    Sorry for a winded response, but this constantly comes up as something foolish to do, and I feel that it is incorrect if given the right mindset. I suppose I'll have to try it and see if my thoughts orient more towards money or towards what I see that my audience and myself want to do.

    Although you say you don't NEED all of this fancy equipment I'd certainly recommend getting a good mic. Always helps. And making sure your stream doesn't lag.

    Thank you for the video man! I got really discouraged after I built up about 20 consistent viewers and 100 followers who all enjoyed watching me play Rocket League, when I switched to WoW everyone left. I haven't gotten a new follower in over month (I stream everyday). This video made me want to get back at it at 110%, I also decided to try to upload twitch highlights and use my twitter :D

    I assume you have a schedule. But was just wondering how you came up with your schedule. Did you pick specific days because they suited you and worked around you. Or did you pick specific days because of how many people where watching / streaming a certain game. Thank you for you advice so far!

    Great tips! I'm starting out on both Twitch and UA-cam. However, I am putting Twitch as my priority because I've been uncomfortable with myself on camera and my voice on microphone, but now my confidence has shot up in the last couple of years I plan to get used to Twitch, I'd like 20+ dedicated followers who talk to me on chat, money doesn't matter for me.. One day I'll get into making videos on youtube for gaming.

This was really uplifting and informational. It seems so easy but it discouraging at first to try to get views and followers when you have no base. This helped me out. After implementing these for just a couple of days I already have almost 100 views and a handful of followers. You're the man.

    how do you get people to initially check out your stream? I can stream for an hour and never get anyone to stop by so I have no one to interact with lol
