Start streaming, or grow the stream you've got

Sign in to track your checklist and this week's challenge.

Your best play from this week, clipped and posted. It's the single easiest way for the rest of your league to find you.

• Consistency beats production value early on. The same day and time, every week, builds a habit for viewers before you have any -- a schedule is something people can plan around; a surprise stream isn't.
• Your title and thumbnail get the click. Write them for someone who's never heard of you, not for people who already know your name.
• Talk while you play, even alone. Narrating your reads is what makes a Madden stream watchable, and it's free reps at on-camera commentary.
• The people most likely to watch you are already in your league. Post your stream time to the Wire and tag your opponent -- make it an event, not a secret.
• Reuse your best 30 seconds. A good clip posted right after the stream does more for discovery than the full VOD ever will.
• Watch back one clip a week and steal one thing a bigger streamer does that you don't. Everybody started by copying someone.
