Hi dear! Sorry I didnât reply sooner but I knew it would a lengthy reply so I wanted to make sure I had time to type it out. Iâll put my reply under the cut (as long as tumblr allows it this time lol)
I talked to SarahhBee about this while playing stardew with her last night and Iâll be comparing our twitch journeys some so here are her socials: [twitch] SarahhBee, [tiktok] sarahhhbee, [twitter] sarahhbeegames
Be yourself (cheesy but true):
If you arenât family friendly donât act like you areÂ
if nothing else itâll bug the hell out of you
If you arenât a badass bitch donât act like you are
Consistency:
Make a schedule
Itâs okay to have bonus streams but at least stick to your scheduled days
While I havenât needed to yet, take a break of you need to Â
your true âfansâ will understand
Figure out your âbrandâ:
Are you a one game, a few games, or a variety streamer?
pick one and stick to it
Sarah is more of a variety streamer while I play the same 3 on the same days each week and we both make it work
Do you want to have a chill stream or a chaotic one? There are ppl who like watching each so youâre good no matter what vibe you wanna have
Network:
Maintain other social media profiles
I maintain my tumblr obviously and I post on twitter aprox 2x per week
Imo Sarah Is real good with her twitter and I know people find her from tiktok
Chat in other streamersâ chats but donât be fake
Collab with other streamers but be sure to check them out first
I watch a tiny bit of a streamerâs vods before I check them out live and get chatty when they are live
Sarah and I work well together precisely because we arenât family friendly in categories that are overrun with streamers who are lol
Other tidbits:
Donât plan to quit your day job
If you get to that point it wonât be any time soon
Everyoneâs growth is different so if you compare donât get sad if someone else is âdoing betterâ than you
Follow for follow is a trap, donât buy into it
Follower count isnât necessarily everything
Viewers matter more
Your first few streams you might stream to 0 viewers
Get used to talking to the void or get some friends to sit in chat and talk with you so you have things to talk about
Spend as little money as possible on it
If youâre financially stable and streaming is your hobby then go ham lol
Donât stream the most popular games if you want to be found but also make sure people have heard of the game
Honestly there is so much more that can be said but these are overall starting streaming tips. Feel free to send another ask if you want specific tech, how to stream, or before/after affiliate (because I stream on twitch ofc) tips.
As we know, due to a unfortunate error, CALM was forced to enter the US Billboard 200 album chart one week earlier than intended, debuting at #62 with only 10,000 albums sold. While itâs sad that the boys donât get to extend their impressive run of debuting at #1, theyâre still extremely close to reaching #1 this coming week even despite the missing sales (and wouldâve been a shoo-in, had the mistake not happened). The Billboard chart week closes Thursday night and this is definitely an attainable goal!!
The easiest way to help achieve this is to stream the album non-stop on a platform like Spotify, Amazon or Apple Music. Here are some helpful tips:
- Streams donât count if the volume is muted or turned down all the way so make sure you have the volume on at least the lowest volume (plug your headphones in with the volume low if you donât feel like listening or better yet, plug those headphones in and leave it streaming while you sleep!)
- Having the album on repeat doesnât count but if you place the album over and over on a playlist (such as this fan created playlist) it does!
- On iTunes/Apple Music, make sure you are streaming the album and it hasnât been saved to your library, if youâre playing saved music, it does not count.
- A certain number of streams of any song or combination of songs off of an album is equal to 1 album sold - you donât have to play the entire thing! Iâve seen people streaming off playlists that are filled with Easier since itâs the shortest song on the album and thus would take less time to accumulate streams.
- Streams from paid services (like Spotify Premium, Amazon Prime or Apple Music) count for more units than free services (like the free version of Spotify or YouTube) so if youâre able to, use one of those services! (See if there's a free trial you can take advantage of!)
- This is for the US charts but if youâre not from America, you can still help by streaming using a VPN
Non-Streaming Ways To Help
- If you purchased a ticket to the North American leg of the No Shame Tour, your ticket comes with a physical CD of CALM and you shouldâve received an e-mail with instructions on how to redeem your copy. It only counts towards the chart if you redeem it so make sure you have!
- Likewise, if youâve bought any merchandise from the 5SOS official store - redeem those digital copies, they only count if you download! (Each digital copy purchased entitles you to download the album 10 different times but you do not need to download all 10, it only counts for 1 sale) Â
- Obviously buying the album helps as well but Iâve heard gifting on iTunes doesnât count so if youâd like to purchase the album for someone, itâs better to purchase and then send it to them
- As I said, most merch purchases are coming with a digital copy right now so if youâre on the fence about buying a merch item, now is the time! (And make sure you redeem your copy!)

APPLE MUSIC STREAMING AND ITUNES TIPS FOR THE SINGLE YOU NEED TO KNOW
This is the first time we have streams to help us with getting that number 1. So here are a few Apple Music and iTunes tips to help get the most of our efforts. (If you stream on Spotify I have another post for that).
1. MAKE YOUR STREAMS COUNT
To stream and make it count on Apple Music you cannot have the song in your library. Which means you need the â+â sign next to the song. Not nothing and not the cloud.
2. PURCHASING THE SONG ON ITUNES AND STILL BEING ABLE TO STREAM
To follow up the 1st tip: You CAN still purchase the song and stream it. But in order to make your streams count you have to delete it from your iTunes library and then stream on Apple Music.
You can re download the song later. iTunes wonât make you purchase the song a second time, though it will ask if youâd like to. You can if you want but your first purchase is already accounted for and iTunes will let you re- download it for free :)
3. DO NOT MUTE
Similar to Spotify, the steam wonât count if its muted. If you stream all night (which you should) plug headphones into your device and set it to a low volume.
3. PURCHASE ON ITUNES BUT PLEASE STILL STREAM PRETTY PLEASE
Hard sales count more than streams as 150+ streams on Apple Music = 1 iTunes sale. So if you do the math you can see a purchase is more impactful than a stream. Though your streams can add up in the long run, it is always best to purchase the single. Doing both will help tremendously.
4. DO NOT PRE-ORDER THE ALBUM BEFORE YOU GET THE SINGLE
Billboard Hot 100 does not count instant grat songs (songs you get instantly with a pre ordered album {ex ootw from 1989 when it instantly downloaded the second it was up}). Please buy the song THEN pre-order the album. Otherwise itâs only going towards album sales. Thatâs great but why do that when you can get a sale for the lead single AND the album? (Itâs a win win).
These are just a few tips to help you get the most out of your efforts for Taylor. I have other posts about Spotify and general streaming tips as well. Please check those out and reblog them for your followers.
hey!! does my stream count if im streaming from outside the US and not using VPN? rlly wanna help get 5sos to #1 but i cant use VPN. đđ
Hello! If you're not US based, unless you use a VPN it won't count towards this chart but it will help in whatever country you are in!
I've gotten a few questions about VPN usage so I thought I'd link to this tweet that has recommendations/instructions and I also wanted to mention that the VPN I've personally used is called Hola Free VPN Proxy Unblocker and I believe is available as both a download and a browser extension (I use Chrome as my browser so I was able to add it as an extension from the Chrome store).
It might sound intimidating to use but it's very simple and safe!
