Unless you've been living under a rock then I'm sure at some point you've heard of it Twitch.tv. Twitch is the world’s leading social video platform and community for gamers.
.
It has 1.7+ million unique broadcasters and 100+ million unique viewers per month! Because of Twitch's massive audience, creating a huge channel is something people dream about. For many starting it can be quite daunting. 
.
Rather than taking a shotgun approach and flat out creating a channel without any knowledge of the platform, we gathered the knowledge of 12 popular streamers and got some just incredible answers. We asked them this simple question:

"The biggest advice I can offer is to find your own voice.

In a sea of streamers it is imperative to get creative and differentiate yourself in some way.

Also, remember that things take time. Growing a community is not going to happen overnight so you need to work hard, learn from your mistakes, and, most importantly, have fun!"

Vinny created VineSauce a video game streaming website which features hosts commentating on a wide variety of games, including corrupted versions of games on the NES/SNES/N64 etc. played on an emulator.    

HIS ADVICE

The best thing to do is Don't overreact for the audience.

If you're a quite person, don't force yourself to be loud.

Always try to be charismatic, but not at the cost of your own personality. Also during the starting phases of streaming, don't get discouraged if you don't see growth.

Find fun things to stream, keep streaming and maybe even edit some highlight videos. Keep at it and with a lot of work and some luck, you can hopefully see results.

                      ____________________________________________'s Streambadge

tripleWRECK is one of the top Destiny streamers out there. For the past couple of years he’s been running a successfully channel where he’s done his best to interact with viewers consistently and provide quality gameplay within a chill, positive atmosphere.

HIS ADVICE

A lot of it comes down to being analytical wanting to self-improve.

I would suggest watching your own stream replay and making changes until you'd say that you'd be happy watching as a viewer. Because if you don't enjoy your own stream, the chances are other people won't either!

                          ____________________________________________'s Streambadge

Datto is a Youtube gamer who started out in 2013 and is known for primarily specializing in the FPS Destiny. 

HIS ADVICE 

 I actually get this question a lot from fans and unfortunately, I don't think I could answer it very well, unless you want me to talk out of my ass.

I did not start as a Twitch streamer, but rather started as a Youtuber.

As my Youtube channel was able to grow, so did my Twitch presence, simply because I could tell my YT audience to come over and watch me.

HIS ADVICE

 

Number 1 Streaming Tip: Treat it like a hobby - Have fun while you're doing it and don't start with big expectations!

Number 2: Never look at your numbers viewers/followers etc.. they will grow and come . But don't look at them it will only influence your behavior.

Number 3: HAVE FUN IN COMPUTER GAMES!!!!

That's what streaming is all about having fun! If people don't feel it then they won't enjoy it!

That would be about it

Mychal Jefferson better known under the screen name Trihex, is an American professional gamer and speedrunner. Active at the biannual Games Done Quick events, Trihex is best known for his runs of Jet Set Radio and Yoshi's Island.

HIS ADVICE

 

Number 1 tip when starting is to keep in mind streaming in 2016, or present day isn't the same environment as those who started when twitch was younger (2012):

Make sure you enjoy streaming because you enjoy streaming and not THE IDEA of being a successful streamer. They aren't the same.

I advise, in the beginning, while in the single-digit viewer slump (TM), play games as you'd normally do, and be "coincidentally" streaming. You'll find your flow and comfort while being seen way better than putting on act.

In time, being exceptional, a bit of luck, and determination can get you way further than you may have ever thought possible! (I had less than 100 viewers average for over a full year, for example—but obviously, average concurrent viewership isn't the vital stat to judge success of off, I'd say enjoyment is!)

GuardianOutpost is a Streamer, Podcaster and Creator of .

HIS ADVICE

My advice is learn to have confidence in yourself. Streaming is fun but it comes with a lot of doubt.

Am I interesting? Am I funny? Will people like me? Why is nobody watching me?

These questions creep up a lot especially when your viewer count is low. So just be patient, be confident in your ability and stay consistent. Streaming success is not 100% guaranteed, but these tips are good to start building from.

eposvox - Epic Voice, Epic Content. Channels feature gameplays and commentaries from Halo 5: Guardians, Call of Duty: Black Ops 3, Star Wars: Battlefront, etc. as well as various let's plays and other gameplay-related videos.

HIS ADVICE

My #1 tip is to make sure you're having fun above all else.

Too many people insist on maintaining all-day streaming schedules and the like when they have no energy or motivation, and it's not fun to watch.

Stream when you're having fun and want to share. Just like with normal, on-demand video, let your best moments shine through.
