How to start a
clipping page.

Pick your streamer or niche

• Someone you already watch. You will spot the good moments faster and know which ones fans care about.
• Enough moments. A streamer who goes live often and has a talkative stream gives you more to work with.
• Check the competition. Search their name on TikTok and YouTube. If ten clip pages already post every moment, you need a different angle or a different streamer.
• One lane. One streamer, one game or one type of content (like Just Chatting). A clear page grows faster than a mixed one.

Get permission first

A clip page runs on someone else's content, so start with a yes. Three ways to get one: join a clipping campaign the streamer runs, follow clip rules they have published, or message them and ask. Get it in writing, even if it is just a DM. The template and what to agree on are in how to get permission to clip a streamer.

Set up the accounts

Use one name across all three platforms so people can find you. Put "clips" or "fan" in it, and never copy the streamer's own profile picture or banner.

• YouTube: YouTube's impersonation policy says a fan channel must say so explicitly in its channel name or handle. It also bans copying another creator's profile picture, banner or color scheme, and using typos or special fonts to look like them.
• TikTok: TikTok's Community Guidelines treat an account as impersonation when it poses as someone without clearly saying it is a fan or parody account in its display name.
• Instagram: Reels can be anything from 1.91:1 to 9:16, at least 720p and 30fps. Use 9:16. Instagram says accounts that mostly share unoriginal content may not be shown to new audiences, so add your own edit.

In every bio, say whose clips these are, where they stream, and that you are a fan or clip page.

Your first 30 days

No platform publishes a best posting frequency. Pick a schedule you can keep every day, and post soon after each stream while the moment is still fresh.

Daily routine:

1. Catch the moments from the latest stream.
2. Cut, make vertical, caption.
3. Write a hook for each clip.
4. Post, then log it in your tracker.

Week by week:

• Week 1: set up the accounts and post the best moments from recent streams.
• Week 2: test hooks. Same kind of moment, different first line.
• Week 3: test lengths. If you want TikTok's Creator Rewards later, note that only videos of at least 1 minute count.
• Week 4: look at the numbers and drop what did not work.

Help with hooks: how to write clip titles and hooks.

Track every clip

A simple spreadsheet beats guessing. One row per clip:

• Date, streamer and what the moment was
• Length and the hook you used
• Platform
• Views after 1 day and after 7 days
• How much of the clip people watched, from the analytics in each app

After a month, sort by views. The top ten rows tell you what your audience wants. For a posting plan, see how to schedule clips.
