Live broadcasts have long ceased to be a format only for television. Today, YouTube streams are actively used by bloggers, brands, online stores and even large companies. This is not just a way to interact with the audience, but also a powerful tool for promotion and monetization.
Why are streams beneficial for bloggers?
Live broadcasts allow you to hold the attention of the audience longer than regular videos. Moreover, it is one of the easiest ways to promote a channel. Here is how streams help bloggers:
1
Attracting a new audience
Live broadcasts often get recommended and increase the channel's reach.
2
Increase in views and subscribers
Viewers who see an interesting stream are more likely to subscribe.
3
Improving search rankings
YouTube loves long viewing sessions, and streams are great for keeping viewers engaged.
4
Feedback from subscribers
Live videos help you quickly answer your audience's questions and increase their engagement.
5
Saving time
Unlike regular videos, streams do not require editing.
It's also a great way to monetize content. Bloggers earn money from advertising, donations, and partner integrations. Some streamers review products and immediately sell them live, earning commissions or direct sales.
Viewers also get a lot of benefits from streaming:
Streams create a presence effect, which increases trust in the blogger or brand.
Live communication
You can ask your favorite blogger a question and get an answer in real time.
Game Streams
Gaming fans can watch professional players complete challenging levels
Reviews and shopping
Real-time product demonstrations help shoppers make decisions.
Online courses and lectures
Direct contact with a specialist makes training more accessible and effective.
Income depends on the size of the audience, the subject of the content, and the engagement of viewers. Famous bloggers earn hundreds and even thousands of dollars on streams, but even beginners can receive a stable income.
YouTube Live Stream opens up several revenue streams:
1
Donations from viewers
Subscribers send money to support the blogger.
2
Advertising integrations
Companies pay for advertising during the stream.
3
Sales of goods and services
Online stores use live streams to promote products.
