## Transcript

speak. Hello everyone, my name is Erin. Today I'll try to tell you what you need to do to boost your online presence. What actions need to be taken and, in general, what direction should you think? Well, why are we delaying? We've
've seen many media guys, namely TikTokers, YouTubers, and musicians, fly onto Twitch and be watched by several thousand people at once. Well, even now watching this video, who, seeing this result, immediately went to
happy to fly too, and I'll have the same thing. They launch the first Stream, the second Stream, the third, but nothing works out for them. Their online presence doesn't go beyond one person, and that's their phone. Well, after five to ten streams,
these guys simply end their hopeless streaming career, so to speak, and go on to work at a factory or continue studying. Well, maybe if they had turned on their brains and really decided to do something, they would have
succeeded and they would have taken off like that party or Bratishkin.  Twitch or YouTube is far from easy, many do not understand this. But I will talk about this a little of the main tips in the video that I would like to give is not to develop only
Twitch. If you go to this platform, then in advance you must understand that on this platform without online, without some initial support, it will be impossible for you to get ahead. You should not immediately go and stream all the games in a row. Choose for
yourself a specific one game and stream it. Stream it as much as possible, even if you do not like this game, but you see that it has potential. Let's say one of these games is Stands 2. This game is very popular. And when I streamed it
just a few months ago, my online traffic increased. Yes, as strange as it may be, people just found me and sat on my streams almost completely. As you understand, this game is very popular on YouTube, but on Twitch it is
practically not there. But if you try to fly with this game on Twitch, I guarantee you that for literally 10 streams on your channel, at least 100-200 people will be zafobi. Also, friends, forget it.  Let's talk about solo games right away, that is, games that don't have
multiplayer, games where viewers can't play with you. You shouldn't stream because until you're popular, you'll simply be uninteresting to watch. Maybe you think I'm such a genius that when I fly in, I'll
create such content there that people will definitely not watch me. Unfortunately, I'll disappoint you. But there are millions of people like you who think that now I'll fly in and just destroy the cabin. But all these types seem to end up stopping
I've already talked about this. And of course, the main advice in this video is developing other social networks. First of all, they use HIV as a tool for creating content, and then go to Premiere Pro or Sony Vegas or any
videos and upload them to YouTube shorts. If we go back to the origins and see what Twitch is in itself, Twitch is a platform for stars to communicate with their own people, that is, musicians, actors,
bloggers, but at that time, there were n't many bloggers. In general, all this is The media sphere could communicate with its viewers and, in principle, many do not same as YouTube. No, it's not YouTube. Twitch doesn't have its own algorithms and everything is
online presence. And how do you gain this online presence if you're at the bottom, if you're right in the very bottom line, then how can you rise to the top, naturally, using other social networks from the tools and promoting your wild ones? I can advise you to upload videos to
YouTube shorts, edit them if you have some free minute, I'll edit them and upload them to YouTube shorts, TikTok. Someone might say, why should I do all this if there is cheating? I can cheat you into a thousand viewers, sit and
enjoy myself. I will have some bot in the chat that will sit and write messages. Everything is apparently live online, I enjoy myself, and so on. So, it would seem that this is the very tool for quickly advancing. But
I can tell you that nothing in this life happens quickly; most likely, not a single advertiser will agree to work with He'll just look at one of your Streams, then another, we'll see the same messages in the chat, and he'll simply
refuse you, and so they'll do everything. What can we conclude from this video? Stream games that no one streams, which are kind of popular on other platforms, but they're not on Twitch. That is, we've recorded the following. Of course,
develop other social networks, develop something besides Twitch. YouTube or TikTok are two of these main platforms that are worth working with. Third, don't cheat yourself. All this cheated online traffic is only needed
so you can show off in front of your classmates at school. If you want to make money from this and really advance somehow, then this won't help you at all. Let Twitch not fight bots very harshly. Yes, with
all this cheating, the main thing for them is to have retention on their platform and Amazon. The main thing is that you can't pump up your account through cheating. But here we'll return to the initial idea of ​​this video. Nothing in
this life is simple, or just Find yourself a bunch of streamers who will give you a raid once and then you'll become popular right away. Well, friends, my to the channel, give it a like, good luck everyone. Bye-bye.
