As a content creator, you know the importance of putting your best possible foot forward and presenting your top creation to your audience. Part of running a content channel, such as streaming play-throughs on Twitch.tv, is understanding all the mediums through which to brand yourself and share your content. Part of branding is, of course, having a name for your channels. This username tends to follow you on your social channels and other platforms and becomes recognizable branding to your audience. Your following knows to find you through your brand name across all channels.Many content creators have a dedicated website, which links out to their content across different channels. It’s likely that if you stream your main and live content to Twitch.tv, that you’re also sharing clips and highlights to YouTube, and providing updates across social during a play. It’s great to have a simplified and snappy domain name to have for a dedicated website or to forward everyone to your preferred platform. If you choose to forward your domain name to your channel on Twitch.tv, you get the benefit of having a memorable and short domain name to link out to on social channels to redirect traffic to your channel. In celebration of Hover’s upcoming partnership with Ting to sponsor a Starcraft II player, Neeb, we wanted to provide a solution to Twitch.tv streamers looking to forward a domain name to their channel.
