Quality
Lounges is a platform that supports creators of any size or budget. Whilst we understand that equipment can be expensive there are some measure you can take to make your content far more attractive to your audience and increase the success of your videos and live streams:

Ensure you have a stable internet connection. Perhaps consider switching to a wired connection.
-
Add production value to your stream using OBS.
Duration
Your audience will be more inclined to purchase content if it is more lengthy and in depth; the kind of content they cannot get on other free platforms. The videos that perform the best are longer and priced fairly to the quantity of the videos. For example, Instead of uploading one song, full live sets perform better on Lounges.tv.
Quantity
Regular and consistent content on your page will allow you to build up a persistent following and help to keep your audience engaged on your Lounge. If you have previously recorded content, upload it as on-demand videos now and again to keep new and exciting releases on your profile. Regular Live streams also help to boost ticket sales and keep your audience focused on your stream.
Building up your profile over time with consistent content will help you be more and more successful.
Socials
It is important that you build an audience & draw your existing audience towards your Lounge. This way you will be able to majorly increase traffic to your Lounge & majorly increase the success of your content on Lounges.tv. You can share your Lounge directly from the platform to most of the major social media platforms to inform your audience and draw in new audiences to your lounge. Your audience is out there, get your content out to them.
Price
Be realistic with the price of content and what you are asking the viewer to pay for. An hour's worth of content is going to be more valuable to your audience than one 3-5 minute video that they could have accessed on a free platform.
Put yourself in the viewers shoes. What content would you want to see? What standards would you have to be willing to pay for a creator's content? This is the key to success on Lounges.
