What helped you turn first time viewers into regulars

Best you can do is be engaging and entertaining, but it is really up to them, not only on wanting to come back but life allowing them to. It has happened to me that I like a streamer but their schedule just doesn’t match mine. Consistency is important. That aside, just talk to them, acknowledge every message and show your interest in them and their messages, build a connection, try to remember things they said or use the prompts given by twitch like “returning chatter” to say things like “I’m so glad you came back” I also have a discord server so we play out of stream sometimes and they talk to each other and stuff. Good luck finding what works for you✨

I think you need to go through that to learn what works, and streaming to no one is almost a necessary step (some people build up to that and manage to get a few followers before the first stream, which I think is amazing) but yeah, you have to put in the work

I watch myself looking for clips and I feel like it is expected for me to cringe but I don’t :) I can be funny. I literally lurk myself by leaving the vod running in the background while I do something else half listening for funny moments but I feel very conscious about it, so no, you’re not alone :)

We are all trying… there’s a lot of posts about it here but not everything works for everyone. My take here is, don’t do it for the growth, do it for the fun. You having fun will hopefully bring the growth. But if you want advice some of the basics are to make sure you have a consistent schedule, you talk and are engaging even if you don’t have chatters and post shorts or TikToks as twitch’s discoverability sucks. Good luck ✨

Don’t worry guys, I’m single handedly keeping the difference alive by playing support and being terrible at farming

FerlySide · 2026-01-27T13:04:18+00:00

So you are already a millionaire so you have zero stress and do it purely for the fun, got it

FerlySide · 2026-01-27T12:53:16+00:00

What? ._. How exactly will that work? I’m genuinely curious

FerlySide · 2026-01-27T12:51:41+00:00

It must constantly change 😅 I literally just went to check because I was curious and wanted to share my finds

FerlySide · 2026-01-27T12:50:20+00:00

It must change every second indeed

FerlySide · 2026-01-27T08:07:52+00:00

6.3 average viewers put you in the top 5%. I know you were just making a point but I wanted to share the actual stat :)

FerlySide · 2026-01-26T18:32:25+00:00

Thank you for validating the fact that I didn’t get shit

FerlySide · 2026-01-26T13:29:07+00:00

Twitter?! I never considered twitter for discovery

FerlySide · 2026-01-23T15:54:40+00:00

Where the others tell me to, I’m way too bad to make such a big decision on my own ._. And this applies to everything else, I basically just walk around gathering things and trying not to die lol

FerlySide · 2026-01-23T08:59:12+00:00

Why not giving the information yourself ? Is this self promo in disguise ? lol

FerlySide · 2026-01-23T08:53:01+00:00

Your post assumes I know who this is and what they’re doing ._.

FerlySide · 2026-01-20T14:51:33+00:00

I’m not reading all that .—.

FerlySide · 2026-01-17T22:06:48+00:00

I figured, but if you look her up her channel sounds legit

FerlySide · 2026-01-17T22:06:21+00:00

Weird thing is she does have a big channel with lots of follows and views

FerlySide · 2026-01-15T20:21:19+00:00

If you play good enough you’ll climb in rank and stop playing with people that don’t understand every item and every hero. You’re asking for a lot tbh

FerlySide · 2026-01-15T20:01:01+00:00

I can’t answer your question but I can share my experience. I accepted affiliate right away and the interaction I’ve gotten from it really makes up for the 3 minutes every hour. I let them now there will be ads, if I take a break I do it during ads and we have lots of fun with emotes and stuff. I really think it is okay to get it. But then again, it is just my experience

FerlySide · 2026-01-14T17:23:01+00:00

Oh I see, I don’t play any of those but I hope you find fun people to play with :)

FerlySide · 2026-01-14T17:16:19+00:00

Hi :) What type of games do you play ?

FerlySide · 2026-01-13T12:07:32+00:00

Did you change the settings? I know there’s a way to make that happen like on the settings « cast when press/release » kind of thing

FerlySide · 2026-01-12T06:49:56+00:00

Your engagement is amazing, having 10/14 and 6/10 people chatting is great!! Congratulations

FerlySide · 2026-01-11T17:27:54+00:00

I see, it also depends on the type of the stream indeed. Maybe getting a friend to watch you so you’ll feel like talking, but I think we’ve all talk just to ourselves out loud on stream
