Live streaming is one of the most needed entertainment in today’s life as this is the only mode of things one can enjoy sitting right at home from anywhere and anytime without stepping out into this pandemic situation. There are several live streaming devices now in the market and many new ones are growing with time rapidly due to the use of such software.

Whenever we talk about the live streaming facilities, the first thing which strikes our head is one of the best is YouTube, followed by live streaming on Facebook and then finally drops the Instagram which have recently been bought by Facebook.

With the increase in the live streaming in Facebook, YouTube and Instagram, the chances and probability of having questions in mind is maximum as different streamers have different questions in mind.

So lets see some questions (frequently asked questions), based on the platforms Facebook, YouTube and Instagram -

1. If I want to be a live streamer and want to build my career, which social platform should I choose as a beginner?

If you are a beginner, and you want to start your career being a live streamer over the internet, then you must start your profile by streaming on Facebook, live as the people who use Facebook are more and this helps you build your friends, followers and community. This makes you famous, and if you are famous enough, move to YouTube for a professional entry into the Live Streaming.

2. If I don’t have a quality camera which live streaming Platform should I opt for?

Well, camera is never the issue when you have confidence to talk and dedication to continue harder with your work. I personally believe that no matter any platform you choose will give you the same experience. I’ll tell you to avoid YouTube for the particular time being as the quality matters when it comes to a big screen.

3. I am too concerned with my privacy but I am not tech savvy and I don’t know much about security of live streaming or how to Handle the settings. In that case which platform should I opt for?

All the platforms are very much secured and have a a wide variety of parameters which you can choose which one you wanna work with. But i will suggest you to then go with Instagram as the settings are simple there, as you can keep your account locked and only people you accept and follow will be able to see your profile and live broadcasts. That’s the easiest way you can be safe and choose the audience.

These options are also available for YouTube and Facebook as well, but you know, it’s a little bit more complicated as per your description. So it is always better that you go with Instagram for your live streaming carrier and make up followers with easy privacy settings. Let’s look forward to your success.

4. Can any one steal my live streamed drafts from YouTube or Facebook or Instagram?

That’s a very question to answer, as we all know that privacy is a myth and everyone’s watching. This means that we cannot guarantee your data but yes no one can steal your data as per the terms and conditions of the following websites ie Facebook Instagram and YouTube. Personally speaking, these are really very secure.

Alphabet’s Google owns YouTube isn’t it, it has a top class security which they provide to the customers and on the other hand Facebook and Instagram are owned by Facebook itself and provides quality protection from all fields and all sides known to us unless someone takes your passwords by phishing or by looting keys.

So make sure that you don’t share your passwords nor make them noted into Dairies or any notepads. Also cover your keyboard with another hand while typing passwords if anyone is present.

5. What is the major problem which one can face while streaming live?

There are several problems but the most important and major is the inter connectivity. This is a headache for almost all live streamers as since its live, the internet connection should be perfectly fine and should work the best in the best way for the good of all.

Else there will be glitches everywhere starting right from the voice to the video and there might be an audio delay as well and it’s quite a normal problem for many live steamers. So it’s always recommendable to test your internet connection before going into a live streaming directly. It will be a foolish act if you step into taking an internet stability test.

Hope you have received your answers. Those were the most asked FCQs on the official pages of Facebook, YouTube and Instagram. Let us know if you have more, we will be glad to answer them all.
