Make Money Playing Video Games! Easy and Proof!

If you're like me there's nothing more fun and relaxing than playing your favorite video game but what if playing video games was actually your full-time job sounds too good to be true well it's not so stay tuned and I'm gonna show you how to make money playing video games and better yet how to turn it into your full time income professional gamers compete in big-money tournaments from around the globe which for some people is amazing but the best part is you get to say that you are one of if not the best at your favorite game in the entire world the life of a pro gamer requires constant training and traveling around the pro circuits playing in tournaments but the problem is most of the time as a pro gamer you only get paid if you win.




What the fortunate news is that all is not lost because according to professional gamer hotshot GG he says that the best way to actually make money as a pro gamer is actually via streaming because you control a lot more of them cash inflow versus contracts and you know tournament winnings being split up and they're being prizes for first second and third but as a streamer right the more entertaining and the more consistently you stream especially as you start to grow a larger audience you can make money in so many different ways all of which we're going to discuss and most importantly how you can get started to become a streamer even as a complete beginner but most people don't realize that twitch was actually recently bought by amazon.com for nearly a billion dollars and is actually one of the most visited websites in the entire world and streamers on the twitch platform and on YouTube gaming for example make money in a variety of ways YouTube and most streamers actually make money through their ad revenue but they can also make money through subscriptions and affiliate relationships all of which we're going to talk about in just a few seconds with twitch you can make money in a variety of ways also generally twitch pays their streamers about three dollars for every 1000 ads that they actually show on their videos and that might sound like a lot but when these streamers have you know 10,000 20,000 people watching a live stream and they're showing an ad every few minutes right that starts to add up very quickly twitch also allows you to get paid for what's called having a subscriber so if somebody subscribes to you on Twitch it actually costs $5 in order for them to do that right and so you're getting paid five dollars for every person who chooses to subscribe to your channel on twitch and that combined with sponsorships Amazon referral links and PayPal donations you can seriously start to earn some real cash being a streamer doing it in the right way so how much money are we actually talking here well I do have a personal friend who is a very new extremer right he's not particularly popular I'm sure you haven't heard about him and he earns eight thousand dollars per month with his stream most of which comes from PayPal donations as well as subscriber fees and then he has affiliate links to gaming keyboards and gaming mouses and things that his audience is likely to buy you have that all the way up to someone like PewDiePie or ninja who are earning you know well over seven figures every single month could you imagine earning over a million dollars per month just by playing your favorite video games right that sounds like a dream life to me and the best part is it's actually relatively simple to set all this up and the best part is it's actually relatively easy to get started of becoming a streamer if you're streaming on Xbox or ps4 all you need literally is inside of your machine already they actually have software that allows you to record your screen already pre-built into your Xbox or Playstation and the last thing that you actually need is some type of webcam like the Kinect camera or PlayStation Eye where you can actually show yourself playing the game it adds an element of entertainment and people love watching and listening to you just as much as they love you playing the actual game you're also going to need what's called a streaming software that allows you to actually send what you're recording on your screen playing your game over to twitch TV to actually allow you to broadcast what you're playing over the Internet to your followers and to the people watching your gaming stream the best software it's actually use for streaming is called OBS and the best part about OBS is that it's completely free to use and the last thing you want to make sure that you absolutely have is a stable internet connection for most streamers that means actually a hard wired connection because the last thing you want is to actually lose connection in the middle of your stream just like a noob did he say noob I did I sure did and now that you're all set up and ready to stream and you understand just how much money you could make becoming a streamer the last thing you need to do is actually decide which games you want to stream and what I'm about to say right here is actually counterintuitive but if you want to grow as a streamer I promise you you want to listen to what I'm about to tell you because it's gonna make it so much easier for you to actually grow your audience you might think that to become a successful streamer on Twitch or on youtube you want to play the most popular games like fortnight and apex legends and things like that but the problem is there's so many huge already established streamers that have been streaming literally for years and years and years playing those games that if you did that you'd literally get lost in the crowd as a beginner so what I recommend is play some games that have you know 50 or 100 viewers or something like that much less competition with all the massive streamers that have literally been consistently streaming every day for five plus years and play something that still has some popularity you know like Kingdom Hearts or halo you know one of the older Halo games or Starcraft or something that has that still has people interested but doesn't have so many people viewing that you've never possibly have a chance to actually being seen when all these massive streamers that have been streaming every day for five plus years are clogging up the main dashboard and while not every successful streamer is alike I'm going to share with you the top five qualities that you need to have to have a chance of making it as a streamer because all streamers do share these five characteristics and if you want to become a streamer and if you want to make money playing video games which might sound like a dream to most people then you're gonna want to make sure that you're doing all five of these things number five is you want to have an entertaining energetic passionate personality right you might not be the most entertaining person in the world but go out and watch some of the popular streamers go watch ninja go watch these guys that have these huge followings and see what they do right are they making jokes are they making voices are they talking the whole time are they quiet most of the time are they reading people's comments and really start to research and think for yourself what are they actually doing that's making them successful and then try to emulate that right don't be fake do your same personality but you can always make improvements to yourself and if you want to make it and if you want to make eight thousand dollars a month or even some of the crazy numbers that people like ninja are making you have to start somewhere so number five is be energetic and have fun number four is stick to a streaming schedule it might seem like it's gonna be easy for you to play video games every day if you're already doing it but it actually gets harder as life gets in the way so stick to a streaming schedule whether that's every day whether that's Monday Wednesday Friday and then never miss a session because the thing is your viewers and the people watching you play games they actually start to love you and they're gonna miss you if you miss your streams so make sure you stick with a streaming schedule and you never deviate from that so number four is create a streaming schedule and stick with it number three is interact with your chat right remember your chat are real people you don't want to just ignore them anytime somebody subscribes to you or gives you a donation or even people in the chat who are typing to you you want to interact with them you want to read their comments you want to make it literally a two-way street right don't just be somebody who's ignoring them playing video games you want to make it fun for them and the more that you actually involve them and interact and engage with them the more fun they're gonna have the more of their friends they're gonna tell about your stream and the faster your stream is actually going to grow number two is network with other streamers and so what you want to do is go look at other streamers out there some people who are more popular than you some people who are less popular than you some people who are as popular than you and you can reach out to them on stream you can find their social media right you can send them messages you can send them emails and you can do collabs with them and then what's gonna happen is you're gonna grow from there following and they're gonna grow from your following once you start to pick up a few followers and the best part is you can synergize you can play games together you know you can have fun together and you're literally going to get exposed to their audiences which allows you to grow in a much faster way the number one most important tip to actually grow your channel we will get to in just one second but I do want to give a shout out to our daily comment winner which is the memes by czar Sean who says you look like a vlogger so thank you for that and if you want to be our next comment winner and get a shout out on the channel in front of hundreds of

winner in the first few minutes when we launch a new video so if you want to be the first person to know make sure you hit those bells so the number one most important thing that you need to do to be a successful streamer is running waise and what I mean by running giveaways is people love getting free stuff what you can do as you start to actually get more followers and things like that is that gaming companies and you know keyboards and Mouse's and chair companies and all these different companies will actually give away free product for you to give away to your fans for free but when you have nothing at the beginning right give away just like a one on one actual like gaming session with you or give away something that you can actually afford or something cheap at the beginning but just involve your actual stream followers and that's the best way that you can ever actually grow your subscribers is involving all of your fans and all of your subscribers without the subscribers you would mean nothing which is why you guys mean so much to me and if you're looking for other ways to actually start earning some money on the internet then check out this video right here where I teach
