Chapter - 5129

While Charlie, Claire, and Jacob ate dinner in the dining room, Elaine remained in her room and quietly opened TikTok. In this age where anyone can be an influencer, even a dog can live stream online. The only difference is whether they have an audience or not.

Elaine fumbled through the process of creating her own live broadcast room and entered the name "Elaine's live broadcast room" in the appropriate column. With that, she completed the creation of the live room and began her first live stream.

As soon as her live broadcast began, Elaine started looking for ways to include a shopping cart feature. She was aware that the most crucial aspect of live streaming is to sell products, and that a small yellow cart is a necessity for viewers to place orders after the product link is displayed.

Despite her efforts, Elaine couldn't find the location to enable the shopping cart feature and in frustration, turned to search engines and typed in "Why is there no yellow cart during the live broadcast?"

The search results left Elaine feeling defeated. She read the top answer and murmured, "You have to have more than 1,000 fans before you can open the little yellow cart... This is ridiculous! Do I need 1,000 fans?"

Elaine was upset, and then looked at the screen. There were no fans on her fan list. She had only been a viewer on TikTok and hadn't posted much, her account nickname was still the default set by the system, so she didn't have many fans or friends. The strict requirement of 1,000 fans to open the little yellow cart left her feeling very discouraged and she thought to herself, "This platform is ridiculous, why do I need 1,000 fans to live broadcast and sell goods? Is this a way to make it difficult for me?"

Following that, she immediately searched for a new keyword "How can I add a yellow cart if I don't have 1,000 followers?".

The top answer suggested that if she had less than 1,000 followers, she should create more short videos that are more suitable for popular topics, try adding popular tags and positioning to the video. The system algorithm will increase her exposure to users with matching tags and positioning.

Additionally, it also suggested starting a live broadcast directly which will be faster to attract fans' attention. If that doesn't work, she can go to an e-commerce platform to buy 1,000 fans. There are sellers who specialize in this, and it only costs around 200 dollars for 1,000 fans.

Seeing this, Elaine couldn't help but think "Do I really have to buy fans? I can't lose to that person! Shooting short videos one by one is too slow, I'll just live broadcast them directly!"

She switched back to TikTok and started her debut live broadcast. Starting a live broadcast is simple, but the problem Elaine was facing now was that the live broadcast was open but there were no viewers.

After waiting for 20 minutes, no one entered her live broadcast room. She couldn't help but frown, "Why is there no one? Are the officials deliberately targeting me and not giving me any traffic?"

She then thought about it, opened a search engine, and searched for why no one was watching her live broadcast.

Soon, she found an answer that she believed was trustworthy. It stated that if a new live streamer's debut is slow in terms of viewer numbers, the growth of traffic will be slow. A better approach would be to start off strong and find ways to retain fans so that the official algorithm can detect the data in your live stream.

If the officials see that your data is good, the algorithm will automatically guide you. There are multiple ways to actively attract users, but the simplest is to invest in official promotion. By spending around one or two thousand dollars to promote your live stream room, you can expect immediate results.

Upon reading this, Elaine nodded in agreement and murmured "As expected, fame can't be obtained in a hidden corner. No matter what, I have to find a way to attract my first audience!" She thought, "It's just 2000 dollars, why not give it a try!"

She followed the steps provided and immediately invested 2000 dollars in promoting her live broadcast room on the official promotion page. After completing the order, she returned to her live broadcast room, waiting for viewers to come.

As soon as the money was spent, the effect was immediate. The number of viewers in the live broadcast room quickly changed from 0 to 1.

Elaine was thrilled and quickly greeted, "Oh, welcome friend to Elaine's live broadcast room!"

However, the other person sent a poop emoji and then immediately left the live broadcast room.

Upon seeing the first audience member leave without a word, Elaine scolded in anger, "What kind of message is that? You don't know good from bad!"

Just as she finished speaking, another audience member entered the room, and Elaine quickly composed herself. With a forced smile, she greeted, "Welcome new..."

Just as she finished her greeting, the number of people in her live broadcast room returned to zero. After that, several people entered in succession and all of them immediately retreated as soon as they came in. It was worse than the first person, some of them even left a message in the live broadcast room.

After several attempts, Elaine became even more angry and couldn't help but curse, "Bastards, they all run faster than dogs! Am I not more beautiful than Hannah? What's so good about her? Does she sing too? It's so ugly! If she sings, the dog would shake its head!"

She then had an idea, "Maybe everyone wants to watch some talent shows? How about I sing a few words?"

She became interested and couldn't help murmuring arrogantly, "Hannah's rank is too low, if I want to sing, I can sing a high-level one. Here is My Heart Will Go On, maybe this will attract more fans?"
