你不可能在一夜之间建立一个Twitch频道。建立一个忠实的观众社区可能需要很长时间,从几个常客到成千上万的忠实粉丝,随时准备支持您的社区发展。与YouTube(YouTube)和其他流媒体平台一样, Twitch不是一个容易闯入的地方——您需要努力工作才能取得成功。
做到这一点的一种方法是使用一种常见的Twitch促销技巧,称为Twitch 袭击(Twitch raiding)。这种无私的行为有助于促进其他Twitch主播,而这些主播也有望得到回报。为了帮助您,以下是您需要了解的有关如何突袭Twitch以及为什么它可以使您的频道受益的所有信息。
什么是 Twitch 突袭?(What is a Twitch Raid?)
当Twitch主播完成直播时,他们有两个选择。首先(First),他们可以关闭流,迫使任何观众自己切换到另一个频道。或者,流媒体可以突袭(raid)另一个流,将观众转发到该频道并在此过程中提升观众。
Twitch主播,尤其是新主播,依靠Twitch突袭来增加观众数量。如果每个流只能获得有限数量的观众,那么突袭可以大大提高这个数字,特别是如果它是一个更大的流光突袭新流光,增加曝光率并帮助增加追随者数量。
这不仅是一件好事,而且它也是一条双向街道。如果您定期突袭其他Twitch流媒体,则更有可能在他们的流结束时收到相同的突袭(如果您仍在流式传输)。
您也不必担心被遗忘,因为Twitch界面允许流媒体查看过去 24 小时内谁最近突袭了他们的频道。此列表可以派上用场,尤其是如果您是希望帮助新频道发展的流媒体。
Twitch Raiding 的好处(Benefits of Twitch Raiding)
Twitch突袭几乎是一种无私的行为。当然,突袭另一个Twitch频道对主播或这样做的用户没有任何好处。通过将流媒体观众转发给另一个流媒体,立即受益的是接收突袭的流媒体。
然而,对于进行突袭的Twitch主播来说,它提供了原本很难获得的社交机会,尤其是对于新主播而言。例如,拥有较小社区的Twitch 主播(Twitch)组(Groups)可以互相攻击以帮助建立他们的观众。
如果您突袭大中型Twitch频道,您可能会发现自己迷失在其他突袭列表中,但如果幸运的话,您的行为可能会引起主播的注意,主播会反过来突袭您(带有观众人数和追随者大幅增加)。
然而,一个警告。不能保证Twitch突袭意味着您会从突袭中受益,所以不要期望得到回报。一些Twitch频道还阻止来自未知帐户的突袭以限制垃圾邮件或骚扰,因此您可能会发现您的突袭仅限于您的朋友。
如何在 Twitch 上突袭某人 (How to Raid Someone on Twitch )
与其他Twitch用户操作(例如剪辑 Twitch 流(clipping a Twitch stream))一样,您可以在 Twitch 流媒体在线聊天框中启动Twitch突袭,也可以通过适用于 Android 和 iPhone 用户的Twitch移动应用(Android)程序启动(Twitch)Twitch突袭。
- 要从Twitch开始突袭,请输入/raid channel,将channel替换为您想要突袭 的Twitch流媒体的用户名。
- 当您开始突袭时,会出现一个弹出式控制框。选择立即(Raid Now )突袭按钮立即开始突袭或取消(Cancel)以取消它。如果您忽略该框,突袭将在 80 秒后自动开始。
突袭成功开始后,您的频道现在将托管(重复)该用户的流。任何(Any)访问您的频道的用户都会看到被突袭的信息流和聊天框,以及一个通知他们的弹出警报。
配置 Twitch Raid 设置(Configuring Your Twitch Raid Settings)
作为一名Twitch主播,您可能认为所有宣传(以及所有Twitch突袭)都是值得的。不幸的是,事实并非如此。虽然这种情况很少见,但有些Twitch帐户会发送垃圾邮件或骚扰其他用户,使用Twitch突袭将他们的社区倾倒到一个不准备处理它的频道中。
如果您担心Twitch突袭的影响,您可以配置您的突袭设置来防止这种情况发生,方法是在直播时切换到“仅限关注者”聊天、限制对朋友进行突袭或在他们之后报告质量差的突袭者发生了。
- 如果您想通过切换到仅关注者模式来限制Twitch突袭的影响,您需要选择聊天框旁边的设置齿轮图标,然后选择(Settings gear icon)仅限关注者(Follower-only )复选框以将消息仅限于现有关注者。您还可以设置用户需要成为关注者的时间长度,以防止新用户聊天以尝试应对不良袭击的影响。
- 如果您想报告Twitch突袭,或阻止帐户再次突袭您,请选择设置齿轮图标(Settings gear icon),然后选择最近的突袭(Recent raids)选项。在以前的袭击列表旁边,选择禁止(Ban )或报告(Report )选项。
- 要将Twitch突袭仅限于朋友,您需要前往Twitch 设置(Twitch Settings ),方法是选择右上角的用户名图标,然后选择Creator Dashboard选项。
- 在Creator Dashboard菜单中,选择Preferences > Channel选项。在Raids下,选择仅允许来自朋友、队友和关注的频道(Only allow raids from friends, teammates, and followed channels)的袭击选项以阻止来自未知Twitch帐户的袭击。更改将自动应用。
建立 Twitch 社区(Building a Twitch Community)
如果您刚刚开始在 Twitch 上直播(just started to stream on Twitch),那么突袭其他Twitch频道可能是与其他直播者建立联系的好方法。促销可以是双向的,如果您经常与自己的社区和观众一起突袭他们的彩带,其他彩带愿意回报您的青睐。
启动一个新的流媒体频道可能会让人害怕,但是一旦您选择了正确的流媒体软件(chosen the right streaming software),设置了高质量的网络摄像头(high quality webcam)并为您的流媒体选择了正确的比特率,您(right bitrate for your streams)所需要的就是上网并开始获得免费的 Twitch Prime 订阅(free Twitch Prime subscriptions)(以及付费潜艇)建立收入并全职工作。
How to Raid on Twitch
You сan’t build a Twitch channel overnight. It can take a long time to build up а loyal community of viewers, from a coυple of regulars to thousands of lоyal fans, ready to suppоrt your community as it grows. Twitch, like YouTube and othеr streaming platforms, isn’t an easy place to break into—you’ll need to huѕtle to make yоur mark.
One way to do just that is by using a common Twitch promotional trick called Twitch raiding. This selfless act helps to promote other Twitch streamers who, in turn, will hopefully return the favor. To help you, here’s everything you’ll need to know about how to raid on Twitch and why it could benefit your channel.
What is a Twitch Raid?
When a Twitch streamer finishes their stream, they have two options. First, they can close the stream, forcing any viewers to switch to another channel themselves. Alternatively, the streamer can raid another stream, forwarding the audience into that channel and boosting the audience in the process.
Twitch streamers, especially new streamers, rely on Twitch raids to boost audience numbers. If you only get a limited number of viewers per stream, then a raid can massively boost that number, especially if it’s a bigger streamer raiding a new streamer, increasing exposure and helping to grow follower numbers.
Not only is this a nice thing to do, but it’s also a two-way street. If you regularly raid other Twitch streamers, you’re more likely to receive the same raids back when their stream ends (and if you’re still streaming).
You don’t need to worry about being forgotten about, either, as the Twitch interface allows streamers to see who recently raided their channel in the last 24 hours. This list can come in handy, especially if you’re a streamer looking to help a new channel grow.
Benefits of Twitch Raiding
A Twitch raid is a selfless act—almost. Of course, raiding another Twitch channel doesn’t do anything to benefit the streamer or user who does it. By forwarding a stream audience to another streamer, the immediate benefit is to the streamer who receives the raid.
For Twitch streamers who do raid, however, it offers networking opportunities that would otherwise be difficult to gain, especially for new streamers. Groups of Twitch streamers with smaller communities can all raid each other to help build their audiences, for instance.
If you raid mid-to-large Twitch channels, you may find yourself lost in the list of other raids, but if you’re lucky, your action might gain the notice of the streamer, who will raid you back in return (with a big increase in audience numbers and followers).
A word of warning, however. There isn’t any guarantee that a Twitch raid will mean that you benefit from a raid in kind, so don’t raid with the expectation of something in return. Some Twitch channels also block raids from unknown accounts to limit spam or harassment, so you may find that your raids are limited to your friends.
How to Raid Someone on Twitch
Like other Twitch user actions, such as clipping a Twitch stream, you can start a Twitch raid in the Twitch streamer chat box online, as well as via the Twitch mobile app for Android and iPhone users.
- To start a raid from the Twitch, type /raid channel, replacing channel with the username of the Twitch streamer you wish to raid.
- When you begin a raid, a pop-up control box will appear. Select the Raid Now button to begin the raid immediately or Cancel to cancel it. If you ignore the box, the raid will begin automatically after 80 seconds.
Once the raid has successfully begun, your channel will now host (repeat) that user’s stream. Any user who visits your channel will see the raided stream and chat box, along with a pop-up alert to inform them.
Configuring Your Twitch Raid Settings
As a Twitch streamer, you may think that all publicity (and all Twitch raids) is worth it. Unfortunately, that isn’t the case. While it is rare, there are Twitch accounts out there that will spam or harass other users, using Twitch raids to dump their community into a channel that isn’t prepared to handle it.
If you’re worried about the impact of a Twitch raid, you can configure your raid settings to prevent this by switching to a “follower only” chat as you stream, by limiting raids to friends, or by reporting bad quality raiders after they’ve happened.
- If you want to limit the impact of a Twitch raid by switching to follower only mode, you’ll need to select the Settings gear icon next to your chat box, then select the Follower-only checkbox to limit messages only to existing followers. You can also set the length of time that the user needs to have been a follower for, preventing new users from chatting in an attempt to deal with the impact of a bad raid.
- If you want to report a Twitch raid, or block an account from raiding you again, select the Settings gear icon, then select the Recent raids option. Next to a list of previous raids, select the Ban or Report options.
- To limit Twitch raids to friends only, you’ll need to head to your Twitch Settings by selecting your username icon in the top-right, then selecting the Creator Dashboard option.
- In the Creator Dashboard menu, select the Preferences > Channel option. Under Raids, select the Only allow raids from friends, teammates, and followed channels option to stop raids from unknown Twitch accounts. The change will be applied automatically.
Building a Twitch Community
If you’ve just started to stream on Twitch, then raiding other Twitch channels could be a good way to make connections with other streamers. The promotion can be two-way, with other streamers willing to return the favor if you’re regularly raiding their streamers with your own community and audience.
It can be scary launching a new streaming channel, but once you’ve chosen the right streaming software, set up a high quality webcam and picked the right bitrate for your streams, all you need is to get online and start gaining free Twitch Prime subscriptions (as well as paid subs) to build up an income and go full time.
