Maybe you prefer playing your games on consoles, as many people do. Perhaps you like watching live broadcasts on consoles — a lot of people are doing this, too — and you see no justification for having separate devices for streaming and watching.

On Twitch, success is measured by the distribution of hours watched. A very limited number of top streamers, four thousand of them, hold three-quarters of live hours watched. Twitch has around 9 million monthly streamers, so the math is obvious. Creating your success strategy starts with the most important aspect: content.
Gaming content is what originally launched Twitch. For a long time, it was the primary draw of the platform. Even today, people seem to tune in mostly to watch gaming content. Two of the most popular categories, in terms of hours watched, are two game categories: League of Legends and Fortnite.
In the Just Chatting category, you can find channels about anything, not just games and gamer culture. So what does this mean for you? Here are a few tips that should help you get settled into a nice content category — or a few.
Some people will jump between gaming, chats, and streaming as part of a variety content strategy.

You can be a speedrunner who wants to get through games as quickly as possible. You might be a highly competitive gamer who masters games only to duel people. You might thrive as a community guru who figures out game mechanics and helps others become great at games. Because consistency is key when it comes to streaming, the best way to do it is to try to stick to a schedule as much as possible.
Content affects quality, too, albeit in a different way. There are some other effects you can add to your stream, as well as special settings you can pay attention to, that can make a lot of difference.
