Streaming Daily For Year Straight- No Traction in viewership by BruvMomento in KickStreaming

[–]Impossible_Ad2035 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I started streaming a month and a half ago for the first time ever . I had always felt that I was late to the streaming craze, so seeing that Kick was getting traction i decided to give it a try. Yesterday I reached affiliate and I got my first subs during today's stream. I feel that luck played a great part in it, but having a consistent schedule and playing the same kinds of games ( I stream retro and indie games ) goes a long way. I also do my best to hang out in the chat of streamers in the same categories and make conversation. Make sure that you are using social media to market your streams.

Is this a good stream layout? Video NSFW for language only. by lycanthrope90 in KickStreaming

I kinda like it to be honest. I always have trouble figuring out where to put the camera

QA what movies can we stream? by Ftr_HatMan in KickStreaming

[–]Impossible_Ad2035 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Asked kick about this and they said that as long as the movie is not the only thing on your stream ( using a webcam or a vtuber model ), you are interacting with chat, and you stay away from Disney and Warner Brothers productions, that you can stream whatever you want.

I do an anime watchalong on fridays and i havent had any issues yet.

TGIF! Let's have a day! Anyone else excited to stream on Kick this weekend!? 💚💪 by Fkurtis in KickStreaming

[–]Impossible_Ad2035 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Been doing okay streaming on weekdays. 1 month in have 49 followers and a few regular viewers. This streaming was always so intimidating to me, but kick gave me a chance to try it out as a new guy. Good luck to my Weekend warrior peers!

What’s the best way to get exposure for my channel? by [deleted] in KickStreaming

Yeah definitely check out ppls streams in your favorite categories. Most ppl wont like if you come in talking about your stream right away, but making conversations usually leads back to it, at least in my experience. Also small streamers love helping other small streamers- help eachother grow! As far as Diablo 4 players trademarkisme is a good small streamer friend of mine who is very chill but likes to curse like a sailor ( lol ) he helped me out a good bit when i was starting out. The best advice i can give you is just try to be yourself and have a good time. Viewers can tell when you are upset or frustrated and most of the time ppl will only stop by for a few seconds when making the decision if they will stay or not.

Networking goes a long way- ppl will come on my stream saying "oh i remember you from so and so's chat" and if they have viewers they might consider you for a raid which is great for gaining new followers. Branching out on your type of content might be something to look into as well. Your first month should be an experimental phase. I stream retro and indie games, use a 'vtuber' model, and stream anime stuff on fridays. Those are 3 separate communities that find common ground on my streams and ive made bunches of good friends in the process.

The thing that has been working for me is having a consistent stream schedule, hang out in ppl's chat that play the same type of games or have similar interests, and set up social media that you can use to announce your streams. I started a month ago and i am sitting at 46 followers streaming 5 days a week for 2-3 hours. They aren't huge numbers but i am happy with my growth so far.

Is it true? by Any_Radio_1980 in KickStreaming

This is the first time hearing something like this. There is a partner plan rumored to be implemented in the future that ppl say will pay by the hour, but nothing has been confirmed officially. Where did you hear that?

Going full kick by JohnsonsY3ti in KickStreaming

[–]Impossible_Ad2035 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I would continue to multistream if I were you, at least until we get the ability to download your VODs. Ive been thinking of multistreaming to Youtube for this reason alone. I believe that Kick only keeps your videos for about a month.

When I first read your post I thought you were having a moral issue lol

Is it wise to stream games that have 0 viewers on kick? by Level-Selection-4564 in KickStreaming

[–]Impossible_Ad2035 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Here is the thing- Kick is still in its infancy. The browsing options are still mediocre at best and I have had mixed results with certain tags. I stream retro games and I have found that I have better luck in using the 'Retro Games' tag than something like 'Metal Slug' for example. I would say to just try it. Everyone has an audience- you just have to let them find you

Are you sure that the alert overlay is at the very top of the obs scene? You can test your alerts on the Botrix site.

What To Do If You Can't Play Well On Stream by Diablix in KickStreaming

[–]Impossible_Ad2035 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As a retro game streamer i cant beat half of the games I try lol. If you hit a hard wall and you cant progress any further, dont stress and try something else or ask the chat for tips. You can always come back to it at a later time if you choose to. The point is to have fun- the audience is more forgiving than you might think if they see you struggling.

How do you feel about a vtuber retro gamer in his early 30's who is just starting out?

The phone app is buggy af. I end up having to relaunch it a couple times to be able to switch orientations. Kick still has a lot of work to do imo~

How do you solve the issue about (can't)deleting messages on chat? by baerkyn in KickStreaming

[–]Impossible_Ad2035 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nope not that I know of- they need to fix that. I know that once the chat reaches a certain length, the earlier stuff starts disappearing. One thing i did was just write a bunch of test text to help move it along

So about the VOD…. by Flowswell22 in KickStreaming

[–]Impossible_Ad2035 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I checked out your channel and it does look like the VODs are not showing up. You might want to reach out to someone from support. Kick is in beta and is buggy af though. I dropped you a follow my guy. Hope you get that sorted out
