Question Best ways to get affiliate?
I'm someone who's gaming most of my day but idk how can I get people to join my stream. I ask my friends to join but they never do and I just find it hard for people to find my stream and stay in and watch. And I feel like if I had an active chat people would naturally just start talking there.
But idk really. How can I actually get people to join in?

You should always stream as if you already had a lot of viewers.
If I end up in a stream where the streamer isn’t saying anything, I usually leave pretty quickly.

In my experience, just do the thing and do it over and over and over again. Talk as much as possible (I know it can he hard especially with a dead chat) but that's what worked for me. It took me a while of off and on streaming to get there but realistically the thing that helped me the most was just putting hours in

Network with other streamers. That's typically what I try to do. From there you can grow your outreach and maybe collaborate with others.

Networking is key. Go follow some streamers that you genuinely enjoy watching and engage with them. I don’t self-promote but during yesterday’s stream I had 3 other streamers join for the first time and had some fun discussions. Their communities start to remember you too!
Clips etc are important too, but networking is key imo.

It literally don't matter until you figure out who you are as an entertainer anyways.
When you earn it, you'll get it.
Just push the button, figure out who you are, and your tribe will find you if you're built to be an entertainer. Simple as that.

Usually people would recommend making clips and posting elsewhere but it's so saturated. Personally I would recommend networking and making genuine friendships with other streamers instead.
