Part 3/8:
One of the crucial elements that led to my monetization was my focus on live streaming, especially in the gaming niche. While I also posted regular videos, it was primarily my live streams that accumulated the necessary hours to hit that 4,000 mark. I discovered that gaming streams were a great way to attract viewers, particularly during the peak of popular games like “Fall Guys.”
For example, one of my live streams garnered over 2,000 views, accumulating an impressive 241 watch hours. The key takeaway here is that the more engaging your content is, the more likely you are to retain viewers for longer durations, ultimately boosting your watch time and subscriber count.
