This question I've asked myself severally, if it's possible to make money online simply streaming my favourite video games.
I've made inquiries via online gaming communities which I belong, and I've gotten positive responses, that it is feasible to earn a living simply doing Live-streaming of video games.
But it will consume more of your time, and social life. And again, you need followers and good number of views to convert your streaming services into real money making job.
I learned that, one can stream via twitch, or simply starting a YouTube channel and grow followers/viewers from there. Starting at twitch is a nice option, you can simply win over followers when you're a good video game player, entertaining people out there. Twitch has high follower base, it is possible to attract many of them into your channel than in YouTube and start making money off your game streaming career, due to its low monetization requirements compared to YouTube's high requirements.
Do you plan streaming on YouTube or Twitch platform as a gamer, passionate about starting a Live-streaming video game channel?
