Hey Notification Squand and #Earlygang! I've had a massive influx of new streamers asking me how I STARTED and how they can reach those first 50 Followers to get affiliate, I realised it's been years since I explained a bit about my start, and wanted to cover it AND make sure it was up to date! 🕘Timestamps: 0:00 Getting Your FIRST 50 Followers On Twitch! 0:45 Why Twitch Followers DON'T Matter! 2:10 Own3d Pro Sponsored Segment! 2:50 How I Grew My First 50 Followers Without RUclips! 4:55 How I Kept My Viewers When Changing Games! 6:45 How To Grow On Twitch With RUclips 10:05 The Secret To Growing Your Stream 11:50 How To Convert Views To Followers! 13:50 How To Be A Successful Streamer!
Dude! I actually just hit 50 followers tonight after 3 weeks. Thank you so much for all of your content! Oddly, it was more difficult for me to hit 50 followers than it was to get 3 average viewers and the 5 concurrent chatters, though I had been told it's usually the other way around. I'm still learning, and your tip from another video about watching your own VODs back to see what can be improved is what's really keeping me motivated and wanting to create more.
What kind of content do you do if you don't mind me asking? I managed to hit Affiliate in 8-9 months but I'm struggling to keep the retention and the people continuing watching my streams, it's really demoralising. I can't find a game that is both lucrative for viewers and enjoyable to play.
Heeey! I'm sorry to hear about the struggle with retention. I'm worried I'll also hit a roadblock soon, as many others have said is normal around this point. I hope things start to turn around, my friend. I exclusively do shiny hunts on Pokemon Scarlet/Violet, specifically targeting fans of the franchise that prefer more of a relaxed community. I'm still trying to figure out my brand actually, but I feel like the value most of my viewers get is the relaxed environment but also having a good laugh at my reactions to finding shinies.
I watched a few of your videos and put things into action, with the support of community members I’ve met on twitch and the help from your videos I broke through the affiliate accomplishments 🎉
People hate to hear it, but RUclips is definitely the place to be if you're looking to grow. Having videos, shorts, and live streams all in the same place is just so much easier than trying to build a following across three completely separate platforms.
I was starting to invest in youtube growth when I started seeing comments saying. Literally "violence and harrassment against women is just natural selection" and thats, apparently, not against youtubes T&C's but a creator saying "f**k" in their vod is a big deal. And I, very quickly, decided if something as super plain anf easy to chuck in the trash as THAT was okay here then clearly I'm not okay here
Awesome video! I feel like a lot of people struggle with motivation these days and making that further step to stand out. And it’s honestly crazy how greatly shorts can influence a community. Also I feel that finding what content to make can be a little bit tricky too and how to shift your presence on screen with your REAL personality, and not a fake one to please others. Great video, always learn so much from these!
I just wanna say that even though I might not have 50 followers yet I think you have done an amazing job at just giving good advice in all of your videos because I just found your channel a week ago and already you helped me make my stream look a whole lot better so all im trying to say is thank you.
I love the fresh spins on this take. What may have worked a few years ago during the pandemic might not be as successful today, but content creators aren’t hearing up-to-date tips as often as they should. Thanks for the great insight and actionable steps!
I’ve been watching your stuff a lot even before I started streaming. Coming from YT long form videos and building an audience with that. Your videos have helped me more with understanding OBS and actually going “live” properly. Thank you for all your work and tips 😊
I'm almost at 50 followers! I have used some of your tips and wanted to say thank you!!! But I find it very difficult to raise the average number of views. It was at 3.5 and now at 2.5 T_T Love u!
I really gotta say your videos helped me a ton and i couldn't be more thankful for it i hope more people see your videos and take your advice to heart love from Germany !
I’ve been streaming for a couple months but only can really do it in the weekend. I’m at 28 followers, I don’t get but hurt or anything when only 1-2 people are watching and one being me lmao. I just stream and play the game and talk as if there was an audience.
Hey Eljay, Was getting some sad vibe when I realized you were no longer streaming but I understand. Fixed my mood by binge watching a few more videos x) PS : you never cleared your stream schedule on twitch
@a_potato_guy networking bro. Being active in streams of the games I've been playing. And joining different discords. Drop your @ I'll give you a follow and follow me back
hey, thanks a lot for your videos, it really helps. After your video I wanted to start editing mine, so can you tell me what is the application you use for editing?
Hey bro, I’ve watched a LOT of your vids, and I’ve been trying to get myself to “go live” but I have a weird issue…….. You always say to make content that I’d enjoy watching, and to watch VODs back to see where I could improve, but…. I’m not a fan of streaming/streamers. I usually get bored after awhile and click away. I’m I’m just a fan of shorter form content/entertainment (say
I don't know if I imagined it, but is there a video you did about setting up Twitch channel panels? I saw it yesterday, but now I can't find it, can you please comment the video link for me?
am i allowed to stream to youtube and twitch at the same time? i spent a lot of time setting up twitch already but it seems youtube is better / more accessible and engaging when offline
Hey just found your videos and they've been helping to set up my channel. But I'm gaming with my little sis at a duo thing and I would like to see a video on how to properly add and record party chat. We are on Xbox.
These are great tips. The only thing is, I’ve uploaded a couple videos on RUclips and I’ve gotten literally 0 views. I feel like RUclips’s algorithm just isn’t as good as, let’s say, TikTok, or even Twitter.
Hello uhm can you stream from Xbox to RUclips and if so is there a chance you do a stream to tell how if possible please I’m not able to afford a streaming computer and the one I have is a Mac which is the best but not for streaming 😢
i play MSFS (Microsoft Flight Simulator) i dont plan on changing my game. but i could do afterdarks with different games. i love aviation and its super hard to grow in that community lol
Heyy I was wondering how possible it is to stream from a laptop? I have a surface 7 and I want to stream from my ps4 pro, I just want to be sure it'll work if I hat a capture card. Thanks for all the vids, very helpful if you or anyone can answer.
I've gotten 55 followers anymore, but I'm not getting as much views as I expected. Could you make a video for what to do when you hit your first followers afterwards?
Personally I wouldn't bother trying to make it big, just make what you love, and enjoy, if it happens awesome. I don't make the content that gets the most views here, I got stuck doing that for a while, so these days I just make what I feel like, views are lower, but I'm earning a decent living, and not in a rat race.
I’ve got 3 loyal followers (idk who they are) I stream everyday and 2 of them watch my stream everyday like a stalker. But I’m not getting more views no matter what games I play and how funny I try to be
Is it possible to recover the chat history on twitch? I had someone who messaged me while I was offline and when I entered OBS and opened the chat, their message was there but I was like I start the stream as planned and will get to the person later but now I can't find it because they only show the messages from the stream. I also can't remember the person's name so I can't do a /username search. Could someone help me please, I tried to download chatty but it's just not connecting with my twitch..
HA! Joke on you. I've been sucessfully streaming to no one for 7 years now and almost hit 60 followers. WHO NEEDS 50 WHEN YOU ALMOST HAVE 60 IN JUST UNDER 8 YEARS!?!?!?!
Using RUclips to promote Twitch is backwards. The money is on RUclips. It makes money when you’re sleeping. Twitch only makes you money while you’re streaming. Use Twitch to promote your RUclips channel!
Building an audience on youtube is definitly the easiest way in my opinion. I had my forst stream on twitch last night and I hit 58 followers because my RUclips audience came over to check me out.

I'm not just watching these videos to learn, but to enjoy as well. Eljay really makes these videos interesting and funny tbh

Does it also hurt the channel if someone was live streaming a game but the person is very quiet?

I got 55 followers

Hey that edit plat from shut down. Do you have any other platforms to edit shorts on.

@12:25 that's funny cuz I tried watching your stream on twitch but never got into it like I have with your youtube channel
That's exactly what I said :) People are here for one thing and not the other.
Not first but Im still here
i’ve been streaming for about 2 months now and i don’t know how to make content people will like. i’ve just hit 40 followers. any tips?
I'm at 31 and can barely get any more I play open world story games like far cry primal how do I get more?
Who’s the man sat behind you?
How to grow your twitch channel: start a RUclips channel.
Pretty much :)
@@StreamSchememan that’s depressing. Hopefully they fix their discovery, it’s a cool platform besides that.
It’s been five years since I started
And it has changed in the sense that you can now also do TikTok instead hahaha
I can't have an OBS couse I'm on an ChromeOS and when I try downloading it it says This file is allowed for PC only.
Who dh is in the back
Bro, who is that old man behind you???
You want underrated games? Try spiderman 1 and 2 as well as God of war and God of war Ragnarok
Sup bro, the discord link in the description takes me to an expired invite. Just giving you a heads up :)
Just checked, still works :)
@@StreamScheme yup worked now. I guess it just wanted you to talk to me lol. Thanks bud :)
I feel like the industry of RUclips and content creation on twitch and streaming was much easier 6 years ago
It absolutely was, creators like us starting now are a new era which is far more difficult.
@@StreamScheme this industry now it's so congested it's hard to make it to the elite group
Personally I wouldn't bother trying to make it big, just make what you love, and enjoy, if it happens awesome.

It’s not about the game, it’s about the content
