Telegram engagement groups, or “pods,” are communities where like-minded Instagram users share their posts in a large group chat to boost engagement. In simple terms, it’s a structured way to exchange “like for like” or “comment for comment.”

Most Telegram groups are part of a larger network/community of groups, where each individual group serves a different purpose — for example, some focus solely on likes, others on comments, follows, or a combination of actions.

Different groups also have different rules — for example, engaging with the last 10 or 20 posts, or interacting with all posts from the last 24 hours.

Some groups are also niche-specific or have requirments such as being verified or having a minimum amount of followers.

After joining a group / pod, simply share your post link to the group after engaging with the most recent posts in the group. Each group will have it’s own set of rules & limitations. (e.g. Like and comment on 10 posts before sharing your link).

It’s important to always read the rules/description for each group as they function in different ways.

The groups will also have a leaching bot, so if you don’t correctly engage back with the recent posts before sharing your own then you may be kicked from the groups. The more advanced groups also have Telegram tools in place to make it easier for you to systematically engage with each post so that it’s more efficient to use.

If you are going to use Telegram engagement groups, it’s important to NOT overdo it! Remember, you have to give likes & comments to the group in order to receive engagement back on your own posts.

Read our telegram engagement groups blog post. In this post we do a deep dive on some of the main issues with these groups, whilst also explaining that you can use them very effectively if you go about it the right way.

Generally speaking, receiving large quantities of engagement via telegram groups would take far too much time out of your day to be worth it. Also there is a risk of getting ‘action blocked’ by Instagram if you do too much.

We recommend using engagement groups to gain no more than 50 extra likes and 20 comments per day.

Most importantly, only use the best and most relevant groups for your Instagram account. Test as many different groups as possible and check the Instagram pages that are using these groups. Look for groups that have a high ratio of influencer profiles, verified pages and users within your niche & demographic.

Below you’ll find a list of the most popular networks where you can access all of the groups within each network. If you are looking for a list of the best individual groups check our Instagram engagement groups list.

If you are looking to increase your social proof or get an initial boost of likes & comments to help with the algorithm, then Instagram PowerLikes can be a much better alternative to use instead or in conjunction with Telegram engagement pods.

The best thing about Instagram PowerLikes is that you don’t need to do anything other than sign up to one of our PowerLikes services and you can get a lot more engagement per post than you can with engagement groups! (No engagement is required from your page, we never ask for your password).
