What makes a good twitch emote in this video right here I'm gonna give you the best twitch emote advice you're ever gonna get anywhere we're getting started right now! Hey it's me it's wild coming at you from my stream support playlist where I give you the best tips and tricks and if this is your first time here you want to learn how to grow and improve your stream and make sure you hit that big red subscribe button and tick that bell so you know in my videos go live for you this video is all about everything emotes and more importantly it's gonna concentrate on what makes a good or great emote on platforms like Twitch YouTube and Mixer and this is super critical because the difference between a good emote and an average emote can make the difference between keeping a subscriber or even obtaining a new one and last time I checked having subscribers was an awesome thing to have so if you've seen my past twitch videos you've known that I've gone to twitchcon numerous times which means I've had some very unique and awesome experiences there but what are the most unique ones is I actually by blind or even just dumb luck had one of the higher twitch support members stop by my booth at the same time I had a twitch partner who basically made most of the twitch emotes for a lot of partners out there and because they stopped by at the same time we got to have an awesome conversation about twitch emotes and I got to pick their brain and I got some awesome information that I want to pass off to you that comes from probably the best sources you're ever gonna hear out there all of the information that I was able to obtain from these people is awesome golden top-notch advice but I want to share with you so make sure you take down notes and just four little tease if you stick around all the way to the end of this video I'm gonna tell you a little special surprise secret number one clarity is key so everyone gets super jazzed when they're allowed to have emotes on Twitch whether they got to be a partner or an affiliate for the biggest mistake that most streamers make is they try to jam way too much into a small image when you try to pack way too much into a very small space the only thing you're gonna be left with is a pixelated blob that nobody gonna know what it is making it very useless for you and your community hence you basically just wasted money you wasted time and you wasted your effort and you could lose subscribers off of it you want to make sure your image is nice crystal clear has a lot of clarity and is clean so when people see it they know exactly what it is secret number two is we want to make sure our emotes are vivid so how do we get a vivid image well it comes down to the three C's we want to concentrate on color contrast and content when you're concentrating on the three C's you want to make sure your colors pop and mesh well for your channel art and work well for you and your community when you're thinking about contrast that's basically just having brights against darks remember you have two types of viewers that watch your channel some that will watch in light mode and some that will watch in dark mode so you want to make sure your emotes work good for on a white background and on a black background and that they have contrasting colors to make them pop more for the human eye and last but not least you want to make sure content is on point remembered these are your emotes so the content should be generally about you and your community if you make it too generalized it's gonna get lost amongst the masses so you want to make sure the content is refined to you and your community secret number three is all about community engagement of your emotes emotes that engage your community to constantly use them are kind of like a cornerstone of your channel and this will let you know if you're gonna have a great amount but what makes an emote engaging for them to constantly use it in your channel well this comes down to two factors factor number one is easy you want to see how proud and happy people are to use your emotes in other channels if people love using your your amount in other channels this is a great indication that you have an awesome amount which equals the fact that you're gonna have viewers that are gonna retain their subscription because the amount that you have which means you're gonna have awesome re subscriber retention this part also has some really cool flipside to it if you're in other channels and you see nobody really using your remote or having fun with it it may be a really good time to consider refining or completely redoing your emotes and if you're not sure what you want to do you know take some input from your community and see how you can improve refine redo to create a bigger impact on your emotes the second factor to the secret is quite simple if you have a community or viewers or subscribers that are really happy to use your emotes and other channels you get an awesome kicker you're basically getting your brand out there to the masses and other channels and this has an awesome side effect if your personal branding is awesome and people love it you would be surprised at how many times people click on an emote that will lead back to your channel and they'll subscribe to you just to have that awesome emote as well let me tell you this happens an awful lot so this is one of the cool reasons that you need to pay attention to this whole list and for an extra bro note on this think about how many times people gift out subscriptions if somebody else and another channel really likes your emotes you know that people from your channel your community can gift us up to them and then boom they can start using your emotes and having fun with them and they may even continue the subscription and now that they're having fun and they feel a part of your community this has a whole plethora of bonuses secret number four is all about how exclusive and unique your emotes are gonna be we all know the main reason viewers subscribe to you on Twitch they want to help you for all the awesome content that you're producing that you're putting out for them but I bet you didn't know the second main reason that people are willing to subscribe to you on Twitch YouTube and Mixer is because they want exclusive and unique access to your remotes that they can only get through your channel and you really need to take strong advantage of these two key terms exclusive and uniqueness do me a favor look at your emotes what makes you different from all the big and small streamers that have emotes out there already a lot of us struggle and when we have the ability to make and push emotes out there we rush the process and we don't put a lot of consideration into what we should have that makes us separate or unique from everybody else out there I mean let's think about this when you go to a lot of streamers out there how many hello emotes do see how many lurk emotes do you see how many hype emotes do you see how many bye emotes do you see tons and tons and that doesn't make you different you're already making something that is saturated in a market with hundreds of thousands of other people out there and this is the point I want to drive home the market is oversaturated with general emotes and you want to make sure that yours are unique and exclusive this is the reason why think about it there's gonna be a time when a viewer or subscriber out there has to pick and choose between you and some of the other subscriptions that they have and if your emotes are just generalized and it's like all the other people out there there's a strong chance they're gonna drop you and hold on to them but if your emotes are unique and exclusive for the platform out there they're gonna hold on to you and most likely drop them which means you're gonna have awesome subscriber retention which is what this whole thing is about and like we said again subscriber retention is OP now I'm not saying you can't do general emotes there's a lot of cool ones out there and if you want to do and hello or a love or a bye or lurk or gasm amount you totally can it's your channel I'm just giving you a little bit advice if you do go along that route and you want to do generalized emotes put your own flare and personalize touch to them and that's gonna lead us into our next secret secret number five is all about personal branding and making your emotes identifiable one of the most powerful traits you can give your emotes is giving them that personal branding touch which will make them identifying across all streaming platforms a great example of this is my own channel graphics that I use right here on this YouTube channel I mean think about it how many times have you guys scrolled through YouTube around something that's around my category and you see my personal branding my personal logo my personal flare my personal touch and you know right off the bat that's a wild for games video the same thing is done with emotes if you have these personal touches that are identifiable to you and your stream people are gonna know that that's your emote -- giving you personal branding and when you add personal branding to your emotes it makes them identify bewitch makes them also have more authority across streaming platforms people gonna know at a glance that it's your emote now there is a problem with this tip and I think a lot of you're gonna know it right off the bat what if I don't have personal branding you could be a smaller medium streamer that really hasn't grown into that heck you could be a big streamer that's variety and you encompass a lot of things and you haven't really refined it down sadly personal branding comes in time and it takes a lot of time to build now I can do a whole video on this and if you guys are interested it leave a comment below and I will see what I can do to create a cool personal branding video for you guys to help build but this is something that you're gonna have to build and refine on your own but if you need some tips on where to start that I can help you with for our first quick tip you want to consider color in keeping it consistent in uniform across all of your emotes let's take this into consideration when you think of YouTube what color comes to mind it's red when you think of twitch what about that color well it's purple what about when you think of Pepsi well it's obviously Pepsi blue and those have strong feelings and emotions that carry a brand through a lot of things and you can start doing that on yours think about what colors you want people to identify with you for instance I like to use a lot of Blues for a second quick personal branding tip think about having a theme or a mascot I mean this is really simple if you have something that you always talk about on your stream you can Center your personal branding around that and have fun with it it could be something that's way eccentric or something that's personal to you or heck it could be whimsical funny or even lewd as long as you have fun with it and you build something around it that resonates with your community it'll do awesome and the same thing could be said about a mascot maybe you like pandas or sharks it could be a bunch of things like that that you can have fun with and keep everything centric around that and for the last quick tip on personal branding don't forget you're your own personal branding I myself Wild4Games my own face my own body represents my brand so don't be afraid to use your body and face now I know this is tough for a lot of people you can be shy or you feel differently about how you look on camera or appearances like that so this one may not be for everybody but don't be afraid to push yourself out there and break down those walls because a lot of people love sharing you because fallen in love with you in your community and want to help you grow and spreading your face around might be one of the best ways to do it with all this emote advice with all these cool secrets tips and tricks take some time to consider what you want to do for your emotes a lot of people they rush really quick like we said before take a moment see what's going to resonate with you and your community
