If you are interested in knowing more about it read on, we give you the definitive guide so that by adopting these small recommendations you can achieve the success you want on this new platform. Take note and let your imagination fly to attract more followers:
Offer quality content
The first thing you have to do is to offer quality content. It seems obvious, but it is not, because every day new channels and content open, but sometimes the creators of these forget that they are working for an audience or public, therefore, the material must be impeccable. That is to say, clean of errors. And how to achieve this, some will ask, it is simple, make a list of topics you want to discuss and if you need it, make a script and review it, it is not necessary that you feel read or anything like that, remember that closeness is one of the keys, however, if you are one of those who lose the thread or find it hard to concentrate, a script is always a good alternative. Take care with the image, first with your image, look natural and pleasant, sure is attractive to those who enter your channel and also denotes respect for those people who see you, take care of the camera (that it looks good, not with pixels or blur, for example), take care of the sound, that what you say is heard and that there is no interference. In principle, these are basic recommendations that you should not skip for anything in the world.
Interacting with viewers
It’s not about doing a monologue, remember that you create content for someone, so ask questions, get them to comment, give their opinion, listen, read, in short, keep them in mind, especially for your future creations. Viewers can suggest topics and ideas for twitch that are worth incorporating.
Maintain a consistent schedule
Discipline and constancy, maintaining a consistent programming, so that people know what to find and when to see you, is something that viewers value a lot. Whoever sees you is interested in something, so giving continuity and defining schedules, dates, days or programming is always important and helps to create loyalty for your channel.
Promote your channel

This does not mean that you can not be absent for a while, but it must be clear, the viewer will know why you do it and for how long. Be consistent in your content, schedules or scheduled dates. Moreover, if you can, create a day that identifies you with some special content, for example, the ‘Juernes’ when we talk about Thursdays, with some cooler content and closer to the weekend. In short, make your viewers begin to identify you, that is achieved with perseverance and trial and error.
Conduct contests or sweepstakes
Undoubtedly this attracts a lot of attention in any social network, contests or sweepstakes that are easy to develop, with which people feel identified and that call for participation, are an excellent option to position yourself and also to check what viewers respond better, so you can reach more and do activities that generate more interest and therefore more interaction and therefore more views.
Collaborate with other streamers
For example, if you have a fashion or sports channel and you invite someone who specializes in a specific topic, but who also has several followers, it is likely that many of them will join your account. Doing collaborative transmissions where you touch on topics of interest, especially knowing how to choose those collaborators so that they really add up, is a clear strategy that can increase your visibility and audience on your channel. So start keeping an eye to determine who could be your next collaborators, or even who you would like to collaborate with, if you have identified them, contact them, you don’t lose anything!

If necessary, study, see how you can enhance your content, check who your followers are and how you can create strategies to enhance your channel, do not be afraid to innovate and try new content or topics, from trial and error you also learn, the important thing is to keep learning and be aware of what works and what does not.
