What is how to raid on twitch?

A Twitch raid is when a streamer sends their viewers to another live channel at the end of their stream. It's a great way to support other creators, introduce your community to new content, and potentially gain new followers yourself. Here's how it works:

  • Initiating a Raid: There are a few ways to start a raid.

    • Using the /raid command: Type /raid followed by the target channel's name in your chat. For example, /raid CoolStreamer. After you initiate a raid, viewers are given a prompt to join the raid.
    • Using the Raid Button: You can initiate a raid through the creator dashboard. Look for a "Raid Channel" button, typically found under the "Stream Manager" section.
  • Choosing a Target: Selecting a good channel is crucial. Consider these factors:

    • Content Alignment: Aim for channels that create content similar to yours or that your community might enjoy.
    • Channel Size: Raiding smaller channels (https://www.wikiwhat.page/kavramlar/Small%20Channel) can have a bigger impact. However, you can raid any size channel.
    • Community: Choose channels with positive and welcoming communities.
  • Raid Countdown and Message: After starting the raid, viewers get a countdown timer before being sent to the target channel. Consider setting a custom raid message to encourage viewers to introduce themselves in the raided channel's chat.

  • Raid Etiquette: It's considered good etiquette to:

    • Inform the Target: If possible, let the streamer you're raiding know beforehand, especially if it's a large raid.
    • Encourage Positive Interaction: Remind your viewers to be respectful and supportive in the target channel's chat. Avoid spamming or self-promotion.
  • Raid Settings: Manage your raid settings in your https://www.wikiwhat.page/kavramlar/Moderation%20Settings to manage incoming raids to your channel. You can set requirements for who can raid you (followers only, etc.).
