Quotes
-
Start streaming immediately, and as much as possible. Make sure that you’re consistent and that you are active on all social media sites. You can’t just stream for eight hours a day. You also need to promote yourself on Twitter. Make memes and get yourself known. If people find your clips and memes funny, then they will click through to your Twitch channel. It’s also important to collaborate with YouTubers and to comment on other streamers posts.
