- Discoverability
How easily new viewers can find you. Streaming platforms are famously bad at it — which is why titles, categories, and off-platform clips matter.
- Tags
Labels on your stream (language, vibe, community identity) that help viewers filter and find you. Free discoverability — use all of them.
- Just Chatting
Twitch's biggest category: streams focused on talking with chat — reactions, stories, debates — rather than gameplay.
