Video gaming is a multi billion dollar industry. When we add streaming with it, It becomes a reality in the modern day world. Hundreds of streamers around the world have made a living by streaming on platform Twitch, you may be asking yourself, how? Becoming a famous twitch streamer doesn’t just happen overnight. Popular streamer such as Ninja has been streaming video games for many years. His monthly income is 100k-500k just from streaming video games.. Streaming Twitch requires a whole lot of time, dedication, equipment and effort. Most streamers have a set schedule and stream from a range of 2 hours to 8 hours. Sounds a bit crazy? Well, that’s dedication and time.
In order to to have a good quality stream it requires good quality equipment. The most important piece of equipment that you should focus on is your computer. And no, I am not talking about a cheap laptop from Bestbuy. Streaming requires good hardware, and the best computers for the job are gaming computers. Just because it has “gaming” in the name doesn’t mean it’s just for gaming. Most gaming computers that are new come with a fairly decent graphics card and CPU. It all just depends of how much you spend. Another option is to consider building your own gaming computer. If you take the time and do a little bit of research you can find potential parts and a few guides on how to build a computer.
A lot of streamers on Twitch will spend thousands of dollars for their streaming setup. Now for gaming peripherals it’s all a personal preference depending on what type of keyboard and mouse you would like. Other accessories including a decent microphone and webcam are entirely optional but please keep in mind that most streamers use them. Great internet = a great stream quality. Internet is something that a lot of people think about last. If you don’t have good internet your stream is going to end up pixely and blurry. In order to find out if your internet is good enough to stream just search up an internet speed test. If your internet exceeds an upload of 5-10 your all set. If it doesn’t, maybe consider getting new internet.
You may be asking yourself “How much money can you make from streaming? Well, when you first start off, you actually will not be making much. Definitely not enough to make you anywhere near financially stable. The first stages of streaming will just be about growing your community and developing your brand. One you have put enough time into streaming and have grown a supportive community you will reach Twitch Affiliate. Being a twitch affiliate means you can make money from people who subscribe. Viewers can subscribe for $4.99, $9.99 and $24.99 a month. Viewers can also donate to you using bits. Bits is a currency on twitch that allows viewers to support using money, 1 bit = 1 cent. Another way you can make money on Twitch is by getting donations from viewers.
