How to create a 24/7 YouTube live channel?

With a 24/7 live streaming, you can broadcast a live pre-recorded video on a loop or add multiple videos that play one after another. It can be various pre-recorded videos, countdowns, and trivia games that don't require your presence and can be fully automated.

You can schedule a 24/7 live stream on your Youtube channel in advance and focus on other things, as your stream will start playing automatically, switch the videos by itself and interact with the audience.

Before we jump into the tutorial, let's see while 24/7 streams are a good idea?

✅ 24/7 stream is not limited by time. And any interested user can search and find your videos at any given time.
✅ More views equal more subscribers = increased watch time.
✅ You can engage viewers in several content themes = your channel's watch time grows significantly.
✅ 24/7 live streams are a great way to promote other content on your Youtube channel. Those users who have only watched your older videos or haven't watched your content at all are more likely to visit your channel for your other videos.

Where to Start?

To start streaming, you will need:
✅ A PC to create a 24/7 stream.
✅ A software program that allows to set up continuous 24/7 streams (we'll be using LiveReacting.
