partners twitch has announce the new Creator profile out the goal with this is to easily showcase your brand as a streamer so Brands and companies get a better understanding of you and your channel [01:10] working with streamers more often as well as streamers are more likely for sponsorship opportunities to come their way another feature with this is all sponsorships from stream elements

collaboration tool is designed to make it easier to find like-minded streamers to collab with offering opportunities to [02:02] stream and grow together they also mention events like trick or treat which will apparently be some fun and engaging way to bring communities together introducing smaller streamers to bigger audiences number two shared hype trains [02:14] element to streams by combining the excitement of hype trains with shared tools like stream together or shared chat can now set shared sub goals and encourage viewers to support both creators simultaneously this Builds on a [02:29] direct boost and revenue for the streamers number three Mobile Share chat this new feature allows streamers to start and manage shared chat sessions directly from the twitch mobile app this is especially beneficial for IRL collab [02:43] streaming as it eliminates the need for a desktop setup streamers will be able to interact with their communities and manage the chat experience just as if they were on desktop also during shared chat streamers can collaborate with [02:55] communities and interacting with one another's viewers which not only increases engagement but will increase your overall Community size number three streamers for small streamers especially Landing sponsorships and growing your [03:09] stream Revenue can seem impossible but these new sponsorship tools are supposed to connect with Brands and monetize their content more effectively one key feature is the sponsorship interest tool which will allow streamers to signal to [03:22] brands that they are open for collaboration plus twitch is introducing brand Discovery tools which will help Brands and companies find smaller somewhat level the playing field and open up sponsorships for those even with [03:35] a smaller Community twitch is also expanding sponsor subscriptions which lets creators offer branded deals to their viewers adding a new way to earn Revenue finally matching gift subscriptions are being expanded giving [03:47] Brands and companies the chance to match viewer contributions and boost the that I'm sponsored by Red Bull let's say Red Bull offers to do this match gift is if my viewers give me 10 subscriptions Red Bull will match that [04:02] and give me 10 subscriptions themselves this is a win-win because the brand Red company and product while me as a streamer I earn double the revenue that I would normally be earning number four new bit features twitch's new [04:14] about creating deeper connections between streamers and their viewers announcing two features specifically for this number one bit reactions this will allow viewers to react to key moments in a stream by using bits which is the [04:27] will encourage viewers to participate more actively creating more excitement and Community involvement in general when a viewer sends bits as a reaction it will encourage others to join in leading to not only more Revenue but a [04:40] more memorable viral worthy moment number two custom powerups these will allow viewers to take interaction a step further by giving streamers the ability to create unique personalized rewards for their viewers

their mods to handle toxic Behavior or potential number six twitch is getting rid of the hasn't announced that they're officially getting rid of the affiliate program [06:14] monetization to where the affiliate program is basically useless they either but they have announced that they're going to be adding monetization options available for every streamer sometime in 2025 this means that anyone [06:27] streaming on Twitch can start to earn Revenue right away by getting bits or not have to grind away to reach this affiliate status before they can start earning I am a big supporter of this because now streamers can start grinding [06:40] and immediately be rewarded financially it gives even more incentive to start the perfect opportunity to take streaming serious now is your chance if you want to see exactly how much you can make streaming in 2025 the link to that [06:53] video will be in the description number seven twitch's version of the for you page it's no secret that Tik Tok arguably Vine before this completely changed social media and how we use it the for you page on Tik Tok designed to [07:06] suck people in and get them stuck scrolling before they realize it hours scroll on Tik Tok I've been telling twitch not only in my videos but this type of algorithm into their app in 2024 they tried to do so but again they [07:20] pushing clips from those that already have viewers keeping small streamers Loop which led me to make this video here on my channel fast forward forward to today and they have finally updated their Clips platform to improve the [07:33] discoverability of it long story short when you post a clip on Tik Tok via the push your video out even if you don't already have viewers along with this rolling out vertical video support sometime in mid 2025 basically what that [07:47] means is you'll be able to upload a vertical video directly to Twitch just shorts this will allow streamers to be able to create and upload multiple highquality short form content that will suck people in give giving twitch Clips [08:00] Better or For Worse for better because potential viewers directly on the platform that you will be streaming on however the effects that Doom scrolling has had on society is not all positive [08:12] with these updates specifically these clip updates making short form content you should not wait until the vertical why twitch will always put your stream in front of more people if you already [08:25] have viewers with that being said you need to be taken advantage of platforms Instagram reals because all of these platforms have millions of people Doom scrolling right now looking for new entertainment that's why it's more [08:38] as many clips from your stream as possible and I can help you make that process easier I personally use Nexus to make multiple clips from one of my YouTube videos here on my channel Nexus uses highly trained AI to go through [08:50] that are likely to go viral once it finds these moments Nexus will vertical format which is essential for going viral on Tik Tok or YouTube shorts and automatically formats them to the vertical format it also adds popping [09:05] captions to align with everything that you say this is because captions tend to the video because they are reading every word as it pops up on the screen this leads to more viewer retention on every clip that you upload increasing the [09:19] chances of you going viral the best part is anyone can use it not only is it free editing experience can easily learn how to use this tool also when you do become a bit more a professional with editing Nexus allows you to go into the same [09:32] editing interface that the AI uses so you can ensure that your clip looks for free using the top Link in my description or
