Week 12: Part 2

Twitch would easily be the best source for my business. Twitch is a video broadcasting platform usually used by gamers. Here, streamers can stream themselves playing any game they want and get in touch with random users in a chat box. Those users can also financially support the streamers through paid channel subscriptions, giving bits (Twitch's digital currency), or even just donating money. However, you will need a good amount of average viewers in order to gain any revenue, even advertisements. Businesses like mine use this platform as one of the many paths of revenue for them. Gamers want to see high-level gameplay and Twitch allows us to catch potential excitement live without any spoilers otherwise. While the amount of live viewers will generate enough money as it is, the extra options to support financialy through subscriptions and donations are certainly more beneficial.  YouTube's live streaming can work the exact same way, though donations are accepted through Twitch. Some streamers use both at the same time potentially doubling the revenue. Either way, Twitch is definitely the best source of revenue for eSports businesses like mine.
