I've tried streaming numerous times and never get any viewers. It's fun to do and the idea of it is very appealing but it's hard getting an audience. I'd say even harder than YouTube cause it's always live.
I also watch a lot of streams. Particularly Vinny from Vinesauce. I highly recommend that guy.
If anyone was wondering, this is my Twitch channel:
