Ready to go live? A great stream isn’t about being perfect, it’s about showing up, bringing the energy, and connecting with your audience in a real way. Here are a few tips to help you create streams people love coming back to.
Community Comes First
The best streams feel welcoming, fun, and safe for everyone. Be respectful, inclusive, and mindful of how your words and actions impact others. Keep your content appropriate and always respect people’s privacy.
Before you go live, make sure you’re familiar with our Community Guidelines, they’re here to help everyone have a great experience.
Heads up: You’ll also need the minimum follower count to start streaming, so keep growing your community!
Setup & Lighting Matter
You don’t need a full studio, just a few smart choices go a long way.
- Use a stand to keep your phone steady and avoid shaky footage
- Position your camera at eye level for a natural, flattering angle
- Natural light works wonders, stream near a window if you can
- No window? A ring light is a solid backup
Good lighting helps viewers focus on you, and keeps them watching longer.
Your Background = Your Vibe
Your background tells your story before you even say a word. Whether it’s cozy, creative, bold, or minimal, choose a space that reflects you or your brand.
Keep it clean and uncluttered so you stay center stage, and avoid anything too distracting that might pull attention away from the stream.
Be yourself, stay engaged, and have fun with it. When your energy is high, your audience feels it, and that’s what turns a good stream into a great one.
