It could be a few bucks /rupees day or few thousand bucks/rupees a month. Don't spend your money recklessly. 

2. You can hire a gaming coach to help you get started. A good coach can provide you with the right insights and strategies to get your channel to success. But for beginner,I don't suggest you to hire a gaming coach.If you create and concept

your content  by youself,it will help you create ideas,content in future too.

3. At the very beginning, most of the viewers will think your channel is of low quality. You have to make them believe that your channel has potential and that they will love watching you do the tricks and entertain them. 

 3.Choose the platform

 The first and the most important decision you have to make before making any video content for your channel. This decision should not be taken overnight. At this point, your core goal should be to have a platform where you can upload your video content. A platform is the game changer when it comes to your gaming content. You need to decide which platform your audience would respond to, and how it can be accessed easily. The platforms you should be targeting include YouTube, Twitch, Vimeo, Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, Youtube etc. All these platforms should be viewed as marketing platforms to promote your video content. It should be a channel where people are willing to share their ideas, get inspired by new tips and ideas. 

 4.Know your audience

 Learn how to identify the gaming community that is most relevant for you and target your audience.Ask yourself a few questions to give yourself the perspective of a consumer before you make your first marketing campaign. What are the demographics? Are the users loyal or attracted to the genres that you play? Have you seen the audience react in an unpredictable manner or has it been consistent throughout the duration of your activity? Is there a correlation between your audience's personal information and the number of viewers that watch your videos? Do you know your subscriber's number or RSS ticker? What are the things they are interested in? Do your research Even though you have a good understanding of your audience and their interests, it doesn't hurt to do your research. 

 5.Create your content 

Spend some time searching YouTube, for videos by industry experts and gaming experts. Engage with them. These people will become your guide and you can share their work with your followers. Plan out your brand As a starting channel, you should be bold. You should be creative. You should go against the status quo. Have a memorable name Make a promise to your audience. If you are offering a low price on a gaming channel, make sure your subscribers know this. Tell them you're here for them. Make them feel the person behind the screen. Tag other people If you want to create a series of videos, try tagging the channel's founder or other good gaming personalities in your videos. Make your content beautiful,attractive,entertaining, and nice. The best practice is to creating comedy-clip,and interacting with your audience.They'll be the first people you'll interact with. 

6.Hype up your content 

When people get to know about your content, they know the value of your content. It makes it easy to sell your channel and it generates a buzz around your gaming channel. In this game, you can't afford to take it lightly. So, you need to put in a lot of efforts to promote your content. Participate in many shows This strategy might be simple but it pays off. It's quite effective. When you become an active participant in gaming shows, you can get to know about any potential viewer's love for your content. They also get the opportunity to ask you any questions they have about gaming. Build a community When there are people who are interested in gaming, they want to get to know other people who are into gaming as well.

7.Follow the guidelines 

There are mant instances,when a gamer who became successful has lost all his popularity, subscribers, followers 

in one mistake.That is they  do not follow,respect the guidelines issued by the gaming platform i.e. the platform where you are interacting and providing content to your audience. You should have a authority on the gaming platform, the platform should trust you,this will ultimately increase your channel's ranking.Therfore,I suggest you to read the guidelines and rules issues by the platform.Remember If you are a student,your first priority should be given to study,then your health and then games/gaming.
