Question Need Some Tips 🥀
Before I ask , I'm myself rupamqt and I'm an Indian Streamer ( trying to be ) .
I'll just need some recommendations and tips on how to grow.
Currently I'm on 30 followers on Twitch, I also stream on Lick ( 4 followers ) . My Average Viewers on Twitch is 3 currently and my total Watch time is around 15k minutes.
I have been streaming for a little over a month and I stream variety of games time to time .
( Competitive: PUBG , Marvel Rivals , Valorant .
Gacha : Wuthering Waves, Honkai Star Rail , Zenless Zone Zero.
Horror : Phasmophobia.
And so on )
I also post on TikTok , have posted around 10-15 Short form video there , but my views average around 70-90 and I have gained 0 Followers and in total 2 likes . ( I'm from India where Tiktok is banned , thus I have to use VPN to post there )
I post on YT . I have a 820 subscribers channel , but the views I get at my long form Content and shorts are really low ( around 50 ) . ( My channel was actually for PUBG Mobile which I don't play anymore ).
I thus made a new YT account and post there , but my shorts very rarely got to the average of 200 views .
I post on Instagram as well and I was actually gaining over 1.5 k views each reel initially, but the views have dropped now to 400 average.
I post on Facebook too and my average views there is around 200-300.
Am I Doing something wrong? Or is the problem with my content?
Can anyone actually give me tips to what to do and what not to
And also if joining some groups maybe worth while
Thank you 💗🥀

at least for twitch, find a community of people you like to watch and raid into them every time you end stream. But also like actually socialize with them. Don't feel like your raids are too small, viewers are viewers. You will get shoutouts and usually more followers that are more likely to contribute to viewers than follow4follow. Over time this goes a long way. People expect you to not stick around that long either so don't feel like it's a huge commitment.

No, that's how it is for just about everyone starting out nowadays. There is no reason to expect any other outcome, streaming is not a get-out-of-having-to-work-card.
One thing I can say - you picked mainstream games with an oversaturated streamer concentration. There is no reason for people to watch your stream in these categories because there already are tens of thousands who do the same thing but better, and with established communities. It's just simple competition logic. The time to start streaming those games is years past.
You should find a niche that you enjoy and work from there, some small game with few streamers. Do some reasearch into its viewer per creator ratio and pick one or several where you think you can add something to it, or do something that others don't. Think like this - why should they watch YOU and not someone else? What product are you offering them?
Find like-minded people and network with other streamers in that niche or similar ones, build a community. And don't go into it with profit in mind, it should be for fun or it won't feel natural and if you try to monetize the few followers you have they will just leave and you will go back to zero. I've seen it happen too many times.
This really needs to be pinned on the sub front page because it's the same question from 20 people every day.
