When to Unhost Channels on Twitch

But you must know the right way to host. Let me brief

Twitch allows you to host or unhost any channels that you want, but it’s up to you how you make the right selection.

Choosing the wrong stream channel will never give you any kind of benefits.

Here are few tips that you must know and if you are not following these tips then you must end twitch host now.

Stop Hosting Big Streamers

If you have recently started streaming on twitch or a small streamer then you might have decided to host any big streamers with high subscribers and followers.

This is just a myth as we think we may gain more followers from them. So better unhost these channels.

No, viewers are smart enough and are mostly aware of these big streamers.

So stop keeping any expectations that they will also host or raid sometime in the future as even they might not be aware that you hosted them.

 

Stop Hosting Irrelevant Content 

This is a world of community where people or viewers like to connect with the community of their interest.

So lets you are a regular streamer of a Valorant game and while offline you host channels that stream Roblox or any music channels.

The audience would never connect, so better stop hosting such channels.

 

You will not get Paid for Hosting

There are many beginners who still think that they might get paid by hosting these channels.

Keep in mind when you host any channel on twitch that hosted channel will be paid if they have an affiliate or partner program.

You won’t be getting paid for hosting any channels, so better unhost channels if you are only hosting them with the intention of monetization.

You must also be aware that how you can lose a twitch affiliate by violating twitch policies.
