Do Twitch Streamers make too much money? The discussion has started as a result of a major Twitch data leak, that allegedly shows the financial data of tens of thousands of streamers. The leak and the data spawned an argument over Twitch streamer revenue, with several famous streamers such as Hasanabi and Syukkuno being called out for making too much money.  

I wanted to address the issue of how much money streamers make on Twitch - and provide some data analysis on a macro level without getting into any leaks from the specifics of individual streamer income, whether it's real how much streamers made on Twitch or not.  

I hope to talk about the type of work that goes into streaming on Twitch, how much money Twitch streamers make as a whole, and how likely it is that you will make money on Twitch. I think this is an important discussion and want to see more people talking about it!

I saw this clip of Logan Paul talking to someone who was asking him for a job and it got me thinking about networking. This clip is an awesome opportunity to review networking skills, how to get a job, and how to ask busy people for their time.   

You might've seen this person ask Logan Paul for a job. Do you think Logan Paul was right or wrong in how he responded to this guy asking for a job? I love this opportunity to discuss networking, job finding, and how to approach content creators for work with them.

This is it! The livestream platform update video I've wanted to make for a long time. I wanted to do a data breakdown on the livestream platforms and cover Youtube Gaming Live, Twitch, and Facebook streaming. Thanks to Stream Hatchet, we have some aggregated data on how each of the platforms are performing. But does the data tell the whole story of Youtube Gaming and Twitch?    

This video is made to explore the biggest questions around Twitch, Youtube, and Facebook Gaming. Which platform should I stream on? What is the best streaming platform? Where should I start as a new small streamer? And most important, where can I grow my channel the best? This is my shot at the future of live streaming.   

Also as a note, interesting note from swb on our Discord - apparently Youtube Gaming changed their live hours by changing what they consider a live view. In December 2020 there was an algorithm change that caused massive day-to-day drops in live viewership. If there is no viewership API on Youtube this explains why Stream Hatchet may rely on bot polling displayed viewership. It's possible this accounts for the change in viewership reporting, source:

Dr. Lupo was one of Twitch's premiere content creators, raising millions of dollars for charities such as St. Jude's - and a Twitch streamer that Twitch itself donated 1 million dollars to for his 24 hour charity stream. Dr. Lupo is a phenomenal creator and one of Twitch's top streamers. It's surprising then to hear that Dr. Lupo has taken an exclusive deal with Youtube Gaming Live. Dr. Lupo leaves Twitch.  

This video explores that decision, talks about the difference between Youtube Gaming and Twitch, and explores streamer growth potential on both platforms. The most interesting part of this video is exploring the future of Youtube Gaming and other potential influencers like Lirik, Summit1G, and TimtheTatman coming to Youtube.

The dreaded small streamer syndrome, or what holds back streamers on Twitch from successfully growing their streams. If you know someone who constantly streams on Twitch to a tiny viewership and victimizes themselves for it, this video is for you. I go over the top 6 mistakes small streamers make to not grow on Twitch.    

This is a video made out of as much frustration as it was value driven. I think anyone in livestreaming can be successful, but almost everyone falls into the same bad practices that drive streamers to have low viewers. The top 6 mistakes in this video are something almost every small streamer can relate to.     

If you're a Twitch streamer looking to grow a stream, or get more viewers on Twitch, maybe this video focusing on top mistakes Twitch streamers make will be better than a video about growth tips.

This is a follow up video requested because I haven't covered the issue of the recent protests against Twitch, or the recent ADayOffTwitch movement. I wanted to make a video talking about boycotts, protests, and disagreements as they relate to social media platforms, with a focus on Twitch. The majority of people want to enact positive change, and come at it with good intent.   

I want to diverge a little from a lot of larger creators and not talk about how pointless X or Y thing is, but actually provide an actionable rubric on how to talk to corporations to enact change, and how people are Twitch are likely thinking (if they think at all) about movements like this.   

My objective here is to let people know that every voice matters - but also convey that protestors need to structure their actions and objectives in ways that companies can understand and act upon. I hope this will help people concerned about the very legitimate and several issues (including marginalized creators!)

I've wanted to make a video about legal viewbots on Twitch for a long time. Many people know about the illegal viewbotting when streamers viewbot on Twitch, but few people know the breakdown of how it works legally. There are ways to viewbot on Twitch that are completely above water and that tons of streamers actually do every day.  In this video we break down viewbotting on Twitch and cover both its legal and illegal variants. We actually pull up a livestream example of effective viewbotting - called "embed streams" and we discuss how embedding streams on Twitch work.   

I did a previous video on this a long time ago, but never fully covered how many fake viewers on Twitch there are. This is meant to be the full breakdown.

Today we're discussing the frequency of hate raids on Twitch via bot accounts. We're also covering the Twitch streamer movement #ADayOffTwitch that is asking streamers to take a day off streaming on Twitch to get them to do something about bot problems on Twitch. But can Twitch stop bots from hate raiding streamers? We explore this topic today.  

I cover the difficulty of stopping bot raids on Twitch, and we discuss the latest of viewbots on Twitch. The problems with bots are a social media wide issue. Can Twitch ever successfully combat bots on Twitch? Are streamers reasonable for wanting Twitch to do something about it?

Twitch always surprises me with its ability to introduce features that not a single person likes. Is this a focus group thing? So Twitch has introduced a Twitch Pay to Win feature, where you can boost a Twitch stream. You can boost a Twitch stream for money and pay for recommendations - where your stream is featured to users on the website in certain places.   

Make no mistake that you are not paying for viewers on Twitch, and you're not viewbotting either - these are two different things and we break them down here. This isn't paying for viewers on Twitch, or paying to grow on Twitch. It's an entirely different system that isn't as effective.  Giving money to Twitch to boost your stream when Twitch already takes the highest percentage of revenue from creators than any platform feels pretty bad. The community agrees and basically no one liked this change. I made this video about Twitch recommendations and the Twitch recommendation system so that people fully understand this system and what it actually does.

This is an exciting video about OnlyFans annoucement that they are banning sexually explicit activity on the website. OnlyFans is a massive platform for creators featuring adult content, and this change comes as a surprise to many. There's much more to understand here than meets the eye - and this video should be a full 360 look at the Only Fans platform, how payment processors effect OnlyFans, and what will happen to the money Only Fans creators make.  

There's big changes for OnlyFans creators ahead, as well as Twitch and Youtube influencers who make money from OnlyFans. This is the video you will want to watch to learn about the actual changes coming, why payment processors like Stripe are behind this, and the true story of the Only Fans ban and how it'll effect content creators going forward.  

This is an exciting talk in general about NSFW content and how it relates to other platforms like Patreon and Tumblr as well!  

Thanks to Unnr (from Discord) and Sevadus for their additions to this video!
