Greetings all!

My girlfriend and her cousin are newish streamers, and they are creeping ever so closer to affiliate. But they are kind of stagnating on the 3 avg viewers and I'm trying to figure out what they can do to improve their chances of getting there.

They are Fortnite players, one plays Xbox, the other PS, and they constantly have mics. They are usually playing together, have other friends playing with them (personally find a lot of the chat funny, but thats up to the viewers, not me), and usually play at a consistent time and length (sometimes they go longer, but RARELY do they go shorter). At the time of typing this, neither have a camera, but they are working on getting some.

One keeps getting spikes of 5-7 views (once it was 10 afaik), while the other doesn't seem to get her views registered. Like I pop back and forth because I am a mod for both, and when I am watching the one who doesn't seem to get her views registered, it seems like shes stuck at 1 view. Any ideas on how to fix this or what is going on?

Any suggestions or tips as to how to push them both over the edge other than the camera? Maybe make the channel page look more professional? Or what? Theyre both getting capture cards, so things like alerts and notifications can be customized correctly with Streamlabs or something (both currently using StreamElements and an extension for alerts).

Thanks in advance for any and every piece of help yall can give! We really appreciate it!
