To begin, let me explain what Twitch is. It is essentially a video streaming platform in which people can watch you play games, react to videos, or even just talk. Now for new streamers, the goal is to get something called Twitch Affiliate. This is achieved when you reach 50 followers and an average of three viewers on stream. This can take anywhere from a week to a year to achieve. In my case, I got the Affiliate status in under four weeks. Speaking of which, drop me a follow on https://twitch.tv/UghItsShiv. Live every Friday, Saturday, and Sunday! Drop in for a nice chat or to watch me be an epic gamer.
