I run two Telegram channels, one in English and one in a tv version. Let me say it right away: a community is important in Telegram, not just a news channel. Subscribers should feel that this is “theirs”, not just a stream of links. Here’s what works: Bet of the day – every day I post one event with a brief analysis. Without overload, in a popular way. Real reviews – sometimes I post screenshots where people write to me: “registered through you, got a bonus”. Quizzes – I ask: “How many goals will Hearts of Oak score today?” The winner gets a free bet from me (in reality, I just send him a bonus). And, of course, don’t push. In Ghana, people value honesty. Write directly: “This is an affiliate link. I get a bonus if you register – but you don’t lose anything, on the contrary, you get a starting bonus.” This works much better than clever tricks. I have about 700 subscribers now, and the income from 1xBet Ghana is about $400/month. But I have been downloading this for half a year, I do not expect an immediate return.

While visiting Naples, I came across https://infopetitenation.ca from a link in a travel group. I was expecting just general updates, but what surprised me was how much detail the stories had, especially the coverage on community events. It reminded me of the way small Italian towns share local news at the piazza. The mix of serious topics and lighter cultural notes made it easier to stick with. I wasn’t just skimming headlines; I actually read from start to finish.
