The gaming industry is really growing fast and at my end here I do see people playing different kind of game just for fun without knowing that there are log of opportunity behind what they are doing. I realize that no matter what you have passion for, if you can make research about it, you will know that there are lot of opportunity you can grab from it and make it to generate some certain income while doing what you love doing. You can be wondering what good can playing game offer, have you check out this set of people?
Game YouTuber
Many do thing YouTube is only for movies and learning purpose alone, there are lot of people who make recordings of themselves playing all sort of games and they upload it for their viewers and make money through it. Most of them make use of ad and earn from the revenues, this revenues mostly come from sponsors.
I still remember when someone told me how to generating money through this stuff especially from CPM (also known as cost per mille) at first I didn’t understand the meaning but he explain that you can receive like $0.5-$1 when your video reach 1000 views. It depends though. If you make more research on this, you can get more information( or I can turn it to a full topic)
Gaming Streaming also go in line with it but you will be recording yourself live for lot of hours and people also make use of twitch for this aspect too, I once login to the platform but am yet to fully understand the platform
Gaming Writing
Writing about games is also another aspect you can use to generate some incomes for yourself. This aspect really come with different options such as game reviewers who make reviews about the game they play, they write lot of content about it and post them online so people interested can read about the game before purchasing them. They do earn a lot from reviews they make.
The part of writing that deals with creativity is for the game writer who helps to write different stories behind this games which include dialogues and how the game worlds will be. This mainly deals with teams who come together to share ideas on games they want to develop.
Game Developer
Many people do have this thinking that anything related to a developer is always hard to do, I once have that dream to learn how to build games but I had to drop the idea base on some reasons. In this aspect, you have to know how to code and program and most of the game developers do work for company full time or as a freelancer. You can learn to become one.
This are the possible way to earn an income if you love playing games but one of the hardest way to me is to be a Game Tester, Can You? You will have to play different stages and pass even the difficult tasks but that is not all, you need to make sure the game have no bugs or glitch and in case you see one, you need to repeat what you did and report such bugs. This aspect make me remember utopian back then.
As a gamer, you can always come to hive platform and join the #hive-140217 community and post your gaming content which can also bring in income for you .
