Launched roughly 11 years ago, Twitch<\/a> is among the most popular websites on the internet, not just in terms of gaming, but simply in general. Even by 2015 the site was the fourth largest source of peak internet traffic in the United States, and had at least 100 million viewers each month. In 2018 the site had almost 30 thousand partner channels, and recently Twitch boasted 3 million broadcasters and 15 million daily users, with an average of 1.4 million average concurrent users. This meteoric rise has secured Twitch as the #1 website for live video game streaming, and the broadcast of esports.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For all intents and purposes, if you want to be a successful game streamer, you need to be a successful Twitch affiliate. This is because in order to earn revenue from subscribers, ads, and bits, you must first become an affiliate. Naturally, how to become a Twitch affiliate will of course be a main concern of game streamers just starting out, because it is an imperative step on the path of growing your Twitch channel. The following advice will help you understand what you need to do to become a Twitch affiliate<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

First, there are some prerequisites to consider. Within a 30 day period you must have at least 500 total minutes broadcast, at least 7 unique broadcasts, a minimum average of 3 concurrent viewers, and you must have at least 50 followers. Most of these requirements are not that difficult to meet. To start, you would need to just broadcast for roughly 60-90 minutes about twice per week and you have already met the first two requirements. The next two prerequisites are a bit trickier, but having an average of 3 concurrent viewers won\u2019t be too difficult to do so long as you are regularly streaming. It could take a little time to get 50 followers, but again, that\u2019s somewhat of an eventuality so long as you are streaming regularly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

There are a couple strategies you can use to speed things along. For one thing, it\u2019s best not to stream just any game. What content you select to stream absolutely matters. You should stream a game based on a reasonable criteria, for example, consider streaming a game on the day it was released because people who are searching for that game and want to see gameplay may end up watching your stream because of that. You should also keep track of what is trending on social media and google searches because those games are more likely to draw in more views. Alternatively, you can stream old games because those can also attract attention from nostalgic gamers that want to see the games of their childhood again.<\/p>\n\n\n\n


Here are some other Twitch affiliate tips you can follow:

1) Stick to a consistent schedule<\/span> <\/strong>
So viewers can easily predict when you\u2019ll be streaming, and so you can build a habit, which will help you to meet goals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

2) Get your friends and family to watch your streams<\/span><\/strong> <\/span>
Ideally have them watch at the same time, so that you can meet and maintain the average concurrent viewer requirement.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

3)<\/strong> Be active on social media<\/strong><\/span>
That way you can start to build a fan-base, communicate effectively and frequently with your followers, and therefore grow your channel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

4)<\/strong> Interact with other streamers<\/strong><\/span>
Try to build each other up and redirect each other’s fans to one another. Stream with other people because that often makes content more engaging and entertaining.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

5)<\/strong> Learn to use bots to moderate the chat<\/strong><\/span>
You do not want to see people in your chat trying to sell something, or worse people saying something offensive or toxic. That will turn a lot of viewers off for obvious reasons, but one thing you must avoid is anyone thinking that you endorse controversial or unpopular views.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

6)<\/strong> Be engaging while you stream<\/strong><\/span>
Don\u2019t focus too much on the game because you\u2019ll stop talking or responding to the chat, which for many viewers can get very boring very quickly. You don\u2019t need to be wacky or overact, just be yourself. But you do need to perform at least a little bit, so you will have to practice your on-camera charisma.<\/p>\n\n\n\n


Within a few weeks of your channel meeting those four requirements, Twitch support will reach out to you through email and notification on your dashboard to give you the next steps in the process to becoming an affiliate. You will need to sign the Twitch affiliate agreement, and provide some basic details about yourself, as well as tax and payment information.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
