Viewer challenges are one of the best ways to spark engagement and bring energy to your BIGO Live sessions. The good news? You don’t need BIGO to create an official event — you can make your own! Here’s how to create a viewer challenge that gets attention, participation, and maybe even a few laughs.
🎯 What’s a Viewer Challenge?
A viewer challenge is a mini-game or task that your audience can participate in during your stream. It can involve:
- Competing for rewards (gifts, shoutouts, follows)
- Triggering fun reactions from you (like dancing or singing)
- Completing missions during a livestream (like sharing or commenting)
It’s interactive, exciting, and keeps people glued to your content.
🛠️ How to Create Your Own Viewer Challenge
Step 1: Pick a Theme or Goal
Start with something easy and fun. Choose based on your vibe:
- Are you funny? Try “Make Me Laugh to Win!”
- A singer? “Gift a rose = I sing your name in a song”
- A gamer? “Guess my next move and win a follow”
- Chatty? “Comment challenge: First to 20 comments gets pinned”
Keep it simple, easy to understand, and on-brand for you.
Step 2: Set Rules (and Make Them Clear)
Let your viewers know:
- What the challenge is
- How to enter or participate
- What they can win
- How long it lasts
Example:
🟢 “Challenge time! The first viewer to send 5 likes AND comment ‘let’s go’ gets a personal shoutout and follow. Let’s start now!”
Step 3: Offer Rewards
You don’t have to give away money or big prizes. Rewards can be:
- Follows
- Moderator role
- Singing a custom song
- Personal shoutouts
- Special emojis or pinned comments
- “King of the Stream” title for the day
Make the reward fun and personal.
Step 4: Promote It Before You Go Live
Let your audience know something fun is coming:
- Post about it on IG/TikTok: “Viewer Challenge tonight at 8 PM!”
- Tease it in previous streams
- DM or message your regulars
A little pre-hype can go a long way in boosting participation.
Step 5: Engage While It’s Happening
Keep the energy high:
- Mention who’s close to winning
- Call out funny entries or comments
- React BIG when people participate
This builds FOMO (fear of missing out) for viewers who might be watching silently.
Step 6: Follow Through
Always deliver the reward—even if it’s something small. If your audience sees you’re legit, they’ll come back for the next one.
