Hey guys!
Im XtremeGamingTech a world of Warcraft player who recently got back into the game and started streaming. I love streamer and feel like it an awesome hobby for me and with legion dropping i feel like its a great time to start. I stream everyday from 5-10:30 and even more on the weekends. I plan to do high rated PvP and hopefully reach gladiator title in the first season of legion. If any of you guys have tips and wanna help me grow pop in and let me know at: [ Register or Signin to view external links. ] Or just let me know in this post

You seem to have it all under control.
Keep a good and constant schedule so that your viewers don't get bored or lose track of you.
Make sure you have the right tools and equipment necessary for a good stream
ex. good quality microphone so that people can hear+understand you
good PC specifications so that you don't have to worry about lag or other issues (there's tons of streaming builds if you need to find one)
and good internet, lol. can't stress this enough sometimes when some people have shitty networks and everyone's complaining about buffering issues or lag and such.

Good luck and have fun

First of all don't worry about the number of viewers, i'd keep that hidden in OBS as it could really demotiviate you. Secondly interact with chat as much as possible and also set up twitch alerts to get notifications of follows, donations etc

Looking at your stream now looks to me you know what you're doing. You got the panels all set up nicely. Haven't seen you live before so I'm not sure what equipment you stream with? I would ad another panel to your twitch and write down your PC specs what you use altogether.

I would get a nice...
- Gaming Desk
- Nice headsets like Astro Gaming (if you got cash t splash) or Turtle Beaches
- Nice gaming chair
- Nice microphone so people can hear what you're saying
- (Stuff like that makes you more professional) - Good luck!

Take advantage of streaming popular games. When my channel first started, we were gaining 200+ subs a day. That's because we streamed the Resident Evil 7 demo and 7 Days to Die.

We hit 4k in our first week.

This was of course on YouTube not Twitch, but it'll work the same.

I'd wait to focus on this stuff til later. As long as the can understand you and see your gameplay, people will watch. Not everyone is an asshole and is going to complain. After all, you have to build it up and loyal fans will understand that.

I use a seperate system to stream as it wont cut your frames while recording your desired game.
