🎯 How to Grow Your Audience

Going live is just the beginning.
If you want views, followers, and a loyal fanbase — you’ve gotta do more than hit “Go Live” and hope for the best.
Here’s how to grow your audience like a damn pro. 💥

1. 🚀 Go Live Often (Consistency Wins)

  • Stream at least once a week — ideally on the same days/times
  • People follow creators who show up, not just pop in randomly
  • Create a simple schedule (even just “Sundays at 3PM”) and stick to it
You don’t need 5-hour marathons. Even short streams build momentum if they’re consistent.

2. 🧲 Stream to Multiple Platforms

Use Castream to go live on:
  • YouTube
  • Twitch
  • Facebook
  • Instagram (via RTMP)
  • TikTok (via RTMP)
More platforms = more visibility.
Don’t make people come find you — show up where they already are.
Start with 2–3 platforms. If you’re on a Creator or Pro plan, crank it up and go everywhere.

3. 🧼 Clean, Watchable Streams

  • Use good lighting — even just facing a window helps
  • Keep your camera steady (tripod > hand)
  • Use portrait for TikTok/IG, landscape for YouTube/Twitch
  • Test your stream before going public (use "Only Me" on Facebook or unlisted YouTube)
Nobody sticks around for pixel soup or janky audio. Basic quality = massive difference.

4. 🔁 Repurpose Your Content

One stream = multiple pieces of content.
  • Clip the best moment and post it as a short/reel/tweet
  • Use subtitles and cut out dead space
  • Post after your stream ends — don’t rely on live views alone
One 30-second clip can reach more people than a 30-minute stream. Let your stream keep working after you hit “End.”

5. 🧠 Engage (Like a Human)

  • Say hi when someone joins
  • Use names when chatting (“Hey Alex, thanks for the follow!”)
  • Ask questions or get opinions: “What should I stream next?”
  • Tell people what to do next: “Follow for more,” “I’m live every Friday,” etc.
The secret sauce? People follow people — not channels.

6. 📱 Promote Like You Mean It

  • Drop stream links on your Instagram story, Twitter/X, Discord, etc.
  • Ask your friends to share — early growth is word-of-mouth
  • If you're feeling wild, run $5–10 in targeted ads (Instagram/TikTok)
Don’t assume people will magically discover you — tell them you’re live.

7. 💡 Bonus Tactics

  • Collaborate: go live with another creator (double audience)
  • Use trending sounds or memes to boost discoverability
  • Create a “hook” in your title: “Reacting to crazy flight fails” > “Just chatting”
  • Offer value: educate, entertain, or shock — don’t just exist
