Telegram FAQs
How often should I post in my Telegram channel?
1–3 times daily is effective for most channels. Avoid over-posting, as subscribers can mute noisy channels.

Channels are best for one-to-many broadcasts. Groups encourage discussion. Many brands use both — a channel for updates and a linked group for community.
