Frequently Asked Questions
What is Telegram
Telegram is a tool for sending information in bulk to a large audience. If you write a message on your channel, no one can see your personal data, the message is sent to the audience on behalf of the channel (with the channel name and picture). Users who have joined the channel can also see previously sent messages regardless of when they joined the channel. You can also add additional admins to make it easier to manage and keep your channel active.
Whats the difference between Public and Private Channels?
Public channels have a username: users can find the channel and subscribe to it. Private channels are closed communities, there only possible by invitation or if you are added by the admin of the channel.
Is paid subscription available?
Yes, it is possible, but such an opportunity is available to private channels as well as public channels with 1000 or more subscribers.
How many channels can I create?
It is possible to create only 8 public channels/groups or 500 private ones. A maximum of 500 channels can be subscribed to.
What happens if an admin deletes a previously posted message?
The deleted message will disappear from all subscribers.
What actions can Admins take?
Channel admins can send and delete messages, add subscribers (up to the initial 200), remove them, change the channel name and picture, change the username (Username), as well as delete the channel completely. The creator of the channel has the right to add other admins to help him manage the channel. Any new admin can be granted or denied rights to perform any specific action in the channel.
Will my contacts be notified if I create a new channel?
No, Telegram does not send any notifications to your friends if you create a new channel. Your friends can only know that you've created a channel if you tell them about it.
How can I effectively promote my channel?
If your channel is public, then everyone can access your channel with a direct link t.me/CHANNEL-NAME, you can for example copy that link and paste it on your social pages for advertising purposes, or for example generate a QR code of your channel link via Telegram and paste it on various physical and virtual platforms. In addition, you can place your channel in different catalogs like ours, you can also order ads to display your channel separately on our website. It is not recommended to send your channel link or spam link to strangers, your channel can be blocked quite quickly if there are a certain number of complaints.
What does the eye symbol tell next to my messages?
It shows the number of views of your message. Each user who reads any message on your channel (or just displays that message on the latter's screen) increases the number of views by one. Note, however, that this figure is approximate and does not take into account certain circumstances, such as when a user views the same message multiple times.
