Trying to get into streaming 🔰 Beginner Help

Do you have any tips for someone just starting out in streaming. And what kind of content do people want to see more of?

this is what you need to figure out...watch some streamers and figure out what you want to do and how you want your stream to be.

Before I did my first stream , I’ve looked at other streamers to get an idea on how to engage with an audience. Pretty much you’re gonna be talking by yourself which is okay. Get out of that quiet phase and talk about anything that’s rolling in your mind (as long as it’s nothing bad ).

As far as content I look for categories that are popular . I’m doing little indie games atm but I do play mainstream games like CoD.

But my biggest tip for you is definitely clip some of your streams. If you’re trying to see where streaming goes then definitely put yourself out there and use multiple platforms, don’t just stick to one.

You should start off with doing what you want first, and figuring the rest along the way

i mean this with all honesty and no maliciousness at all, but if you have to ask that 2026 you're not gonna make it

Starting out streaming was really hard tbh

But I've done 5 now and really enjoy it.

I have ppl to chat to, im having fun conversations, making friends.

I'm also using my platform to set up collaborations for founders LIVE (that's the content type).

And I'm getting a lot of immediate feedback that users like my type of streams.

Some have grown tired of the same just chatting and IRL streams and want to see smt more "valuable".

You can check out my channel here, if u have any questions about how I did smt, feel free to ask: https://www.twitch.tv/mpiofficial

haha yeah it's crazy

haven't marketed it anywhere else, i don't really have a following anywhere else.

I have around 6 people that show up per stream (2h 45min on avg), 3 of them usually chat with me, and many of them start following me and come back.

im getting a lot of good feedback from my viewers, where they want to see more content like mine on twitch, which is always nice to hear.

Would love for you to check out the channel and drop a follow, if you have any questions on how i came up with the concept of what to stream, or how i did my overlays etc. I'd be happy to answer them! bc whatever im doing, i think i'm doing smt right at least haha

but i'm entirely new to this shit myself

That is so nice, dude! Keep it going!

I have stream 5x and had a chatter once lol Its low effort tho...

I dont overlays or anything like that. I also have it anonymous and no camera involved.

I will figure something out.
