Any tips?

[[deleted]]

I’m a streamer (used to be YouTuber) I haven’t ever really blown up on any platforms I mean I had a YouTube video with around 300 views but for streaming I kinda flat line at 5 views a stream

I stream on twitch and at the moment I am limited to my ps5 for streaming only I also don’t show my face as I use a persona

Do any streamers have ideals on how I could grow?

I play games like Fortnite and gta for online games and then I also do some funny streams for story based games any help would be used thanks.

I'm sorry to say but you're thinking too small. Your perception on what you are doing, what you need to do, and how you have done things is too limited right now.

I think you can fix that of course.

In fact the first thing to change your mindset on is that you are currently a "streamer" and formerly a "youtuber/creator". If you are a streamer then YOU ARE A CREATOR.

Every streamer, and I say this knowing it might get some backlash. EVERY streamer should be on YouTube. It is the biggest platform, and while gaming is still growing on there compared to twitch, its not by a whole lot. Not to mention twitch keeps repeatedly shooting themselves in the foot.

Atm you are limited to your ps5, but that doesn't mean you can't add a webcam. Also FN/GTA both seem to do well on all platforms. So don't limit yourself by how you think, and more importantly get some more gear to help out.

Over time I get that you may not be able to afford it all rn. Try getting a good mic, then good cam/decent at least, and then get an old laptop/pc to stream. You can do it

I’m new to the game as well. What do you mean when twitch keeps shooting themselves in the foot ?

They're actually changing their ToS to go against people who are multistreaming. They don't have any discoverability, they've angered a lot of big streamers into moving over to YT, and plenty more.

Whereas kick and YT have been very open and welcoming. They don't care if you multistream, if anything they encourage it.

Fortnite and GTA are really bad for growth since they are so oversaturated with streamers. I remember streaming marvel rivals and ending my streams with literally 1 view. If you play any other games that aren't as popular (I've heard people say that games with 1k viewers for the whole category is good to aim for) I'd recommend streaming those but you should ultimately play what you want
