How to choose a topic for the Telegram channel
To make your channel in Telegram well known and widely recognized you need to choose the right topic for it in the first place. It should motivate people to visit your channel on a regular basis. If there is nothing to read on the channel then your audience will be just a few people. But by finding the right approach to people you can be sure there will be no problems with visits in your Telegram channel.
Popular channels
In order to have a large number of people entering your channel regularly you need to choose the right topic. The best popular topics attracting people’s attention are:
- News;
- Educational channel;
- Author blog;
- Cooking;
- Adult content;
- Art;
- Business;
- Healthy eating and sports;
- Quotes.
Very often users choose channels with humorous content. Plus, people like author blogs telling about their owners’ private living. Educational channels take the third place. These three topics are extremely popular and one can find lots of channels in Telegram related to humor, education and author blogs. But not all the channels are ready to create high-quality and interesting content. Many channels just copy the information from other sites or profiles.
What topics to choose for the channel
The topics we’ve mentioned above are very popular in Telegram channels nowadays so it will be very difficult to beat competitors who have been developing in this sphere for several years. It makes sense to choose topics which still have smaller competition. For example, one can find lots of channels about animals, quotes and healthy eating but there are a few channels about travelling, psychology and technologies.
Every person decides why and for what purposes he wants to create a channel. For some people it is an attempt to earn extra money while others create the Telegram channel as a hobby.
If you are a free author it makes sense to develop your channel on behalf of yourself as a first-person. Using your real name is not required. Today you can come up with any nickname you like. If you write in the first-person it will gain the trust, respect and popularity among the channel visitors. All content you provide must be original and of high quality, otherwise you will quickly lose your followers.
The topic should be such so that any visitor could understand it. Information should be easily perceived. All posts should be a logical continuation of the previous ones. If the channel’s number of new subscribers constantly grows it’s great!
As you remember, Telegram is a messenger, not just a page on internet with a convenient navigation. So finding the necessary information in Telegram on purpose will be quite difficult. For example, the channel about repairing computers or machines will not be in demand while there are lots of sites in the internet where you can easily find such information. These sites have convenient search allowing you to find a specific topic quickly.

The audience’s attitude might change a lot. Today they like the channel about sports and tomorrow have interest to the celebrities’ scandals. It is necessary to decide correctly what topics will there be on the channel. It needs to stand out among thousands of other ones. When writing text you should use subheadings, paragraphs, underscores and other text editing tools. And don’t forget the content should be original.
Choose a topic you know perfectly well. You should not go for the topics you don’t know. If you talk about your things you love with interest people will be reading you with interest!
It is also worth remembering that no matter what quality your content is, you will still need first 1000 subscribers in Telegram so that your channel is trustworthy for other visitors. In future you can decide whether you need adding more followers on telegram or you will choose a harder and strategic way for increasing your channel popularity.
