Good stream suggestions?

Looking for good stream suggestions from among others: WoW, ES Online, Age of Conan, etc.etc.

I'm planning to set up a stream on afreeca.tv and want to see how other's are dealing with this. I have never streamed before, so should anyone have additional tips, feel free to share them ;)

    If you are trying to make money from streaming you have two options.  Sort streams by most popular and pick one and entertain people.  Humor or other content will attract both players and people in general.  The second option is pick a game you excel at, preferably one you are "ranked" in, and stream that offering tips and feedback to other competitive players.

    There is actually a third option, but it involves cleavage.

    This.

     

    And it helps if you are a pretty girl (it draws in teenager/single people who just keep on throwing money at them thinking the girl actually cares about them)

    or

    have a pretty girl act like she is playing the stream when you are sitting out of sight playing the game. So many fall for it. It is all about selling.

    If you are a real streamer: act commercially, sell sell sell. Stream often on a strict schedule, give stuff away after people donate to you -like hardware, T-shirts etc-,  talk a LOT to the people watching you......in fact never stop talking, always use a webcam. Give them the idea that you are always there streaming when they are bored and talking to THEM.

    Switch to other games when the main streamer in your game comes online because he/she WILL draw a big sub base away from you. Better is to open some kind of poll to let viewers decide what game you are going to play next.

    Plus decorate your stream, like a good intro, use subscriber emotes. Give hardware/game keys away when you have enough sub money to buy them.
