I was once thought that I can be a content creator and now that I can see that I can achieve my goal, I know that it will take so much time but one day I will achieve my goal and I will do my best to achieve it and I will be doing all the best I can do to achieve it.

The first step is by starting a channel, you might be wondering what u mean by starting a channel.

well let me explain what I mean by starting a channel, it same as the starting a tv channel but the difference u don't need to spend any money to start, u just need the meet the requirements to start it.

Now the four streaming platforms I suggest you look for starting are as follows:-

1. Twitch
2. Facebook Gaming
3. Mixer
4. Youtube Gaming

1. Twitch:- Twitch is a streaming platform that allows you to stream games and also your other activities too, it is a big community that you make you enjoy what you like by doing it because it is a form of entertainment.

 The requirements are as follows:-

1. You need to create a twitch account by using ur email id.
2. You need streaming software such as streamlabs or stream elements their other Softwares as well as but people to use these two mainly.
3. You need Windows 7 or higher.
4. You need a decent graphic such as GT 550 or higher or a GTX card.
5.  You need a good or decent internet connection.
6. You need a microphone, it depends but is good if u have a microphone it would help u to communicate with others too
7. You need a camera, it is not necessary but it would be good too so that people can see u.
   
   
8. You need at 8gb ram or higher. 

The community experience is good but the same users do get toxic viewers but I prefer it still because I have many friends who use twitch and getting to communicate with them is so enjoyable. It also provides you the opportunity to earn some amount of money and the interaction between the viewers and the users is so interesting because u have channel points as well as loyalty points.

The way to earn some money through research, twitch is can provide earnings through these steps:-

1. Path of affiliate
2. Path of partnership

After these two steps, u will have many opportunities to more earn some cash, by getting sponsorship and getting advertisements and also by participating in twitch competition such as twitch rivals.

Now let me tell u the requirements of becoming afflicted to twitch are as follows:-

1. Reach 50 followers
2. Stream for 8 Hours 
3. Strem on 7 Different Days
4. Average of 3 Viewers.

After this step, u will get a mail from twitch saying that ur being affiliated. Once you achieved, you will receive a subscription plan that will make u earn by subscribing and by cheering you by providing cheer bits to you.

the next step is to get a partnership 

1. Stream for 25 Hours
2. Stream on 12 Different Days
3. Average of 75 viewers.
   
   

If u completed these three objectives, same as affiliated u will get a mail from saying that your twitch partner now.

2. Facebook Gaming:- Facebook Gaming is a growing platform that is owned by  Facebook. It is a platform that is developing and becoming popular and also challenging twitch.

The requirements for Facebook Gaming are as follows:-

1. You need to create a gaming video page.
2. You need a Facebook account.
3. Stream gaming content at 4hrs before 14 days.
4. Stream gaming content for at least 2 days in the prior 14 days.
5. have at least 100 followers.
6. The page needs to have been active for at least 14 days.
7. The admin of the page must be over 18year or older.

From my friend's experience, they told me it a good streaming channel and many people have started to use it and gained a name in the Facebook gaming community.

The easiest way of earning money is through donations by viewers who view their favorite streamer's daily stream.

3.Mixer:-Mixer is a growing platform that is owned by Microsoft.Microsoft brought Beam which is better known as Mixer. It is used by many various streamers and normal people who stream. Mixer started in 2016 as Beam, then later known as Mixer. The mixer is only can be used in windows 10 and Xbox One. It is a challenge to twitch also.

The requirements for the mixer are as follows:-

1. You need to have a Microsoft account.
2. You need to have encoding hardware and software.
3. Good Pc which is having windows 10 or Xbox 360.

Mixer, community experience is much as I have researched about how it is, in mixer anyone can view and interact. The disadvantage of mixer is that you cannot view old videos and the advantage is that it is faster than twitch.

Mixer also provides income through embers and it is developing platforms as it is unsaturated games.

4. Youtube Gaming:- Youtube gaming is a streaming platform where you stream games through youtube. Youtube gaming is also popular but then when you stream through youtube, you need a good internet connection.

The requirements are as follows:- 

1. You need a google account.
2. You need a good internet connection.
3. You need to create a youtube gaming channel.
4. You need a camera 

And a lot of other tools too.

Youtube gaming is a big community. I don't have any friends who use youtube gaming and as well as me.

The way to earn money in youtube gaming is by 100 hundred subscribers after that u will have options for place ads in your videos.

Conclusion

My personal experience is that I like twitch and its grown streaming platforms that have more streamers in it.

 This is my personal opinion but it is your choice which streaming platform do u want to use.
