A Social website chat is a chat that’s embedded on your page or exists as a floating icon. That’s exactly what RumbleTalk is.

What are some great ways you can use RumbleTalk for your site and how does it help your website?

Here are some that we can share with you.

Use it for your next online event

Do you hold live streams on your site? Then, you can use a website chat next to it to talk with your audience.

When you’re live, there’s usually only one-way communication. The message is from you to the audience, not vice versa.

But if you add a chat on your website, then you can create a two-way communication. You give your audience a voice and let their suggestions, comments, and questions be heard.

So, what’s a good chat type for live events? The moderated chat is perfect for that.

What is a moderated chat? From the name itself, the moderated chat lets moderators pre-approve messages before they are seen by everyone in the chat room.

Sent messages by the audience will be screened first before they appear in the chat room. Moderators can choose to delete or approve messages as the live event is ongoing.

Furthermore, you can use the moderated chat to add a Q&A session on your live event just like on the GIF above.

So if you’re looking for a chat that can handle your live events, then a website chat like RumbleTalk is the way to go.

You can install the RumbleTalk chat plugin on WordPress if you’re using WordPress. Or, you can add the RumbleTalk chat on your website as an embedded or floating chat.

Increase your website engagement

When you have a website chat that’s accessible for everyone, then you can guarantee that your website engagement will hit the roof.

A group chat lets everyone discuss their thoughts on your site, your topic, your product, or whatever they want to talk about. This will lead them to be back each time you post an update or if they just want to hang out in your chat room.

It helps your audience have a sense of belonging. With that, your audience engagement is consistent. In turn, it will also increase your website traffic.

Turn your visitors into followers

Some of your audience might just be visitors who are curious about your website. That’s how it usually is at first.

You have to make a reason for them to stay. That’s where your website chat comes in. When you have a website chat, you can talk with your visitors and let them know what you’re offering.

As the website owner, you know more about the product and this builds a connection with your visitors.

If you’re not around, you can let your moderators take over or even your long-time followers. They can help you establish new leads by talking about what your website is all about.

It’s always better to talk to a human than a chatbot.

How to add a website chat

• First, log in to your admin panel.
• Click Embed.
• Adjust the settings that you want for your website chat.
• Copy the generated code and paste it on your website.

After following the steps above, you will see your chat on your website!

Adding a website chat has never been this easy! You don’t need to install anything on your laptop or desktop. All you need is to copy and paste the code into your website!

Another great advantage of using a website chat is that you can switch easily from a web browser to a mobile browser. Users just need to copy and paste the URL of your chat room or scan the QR code of your chat from their smartphones.

Features you can do with the RumbleTalk WordPress chat plugin

• Click Users.

• Then, choose Add new user.

• Fill out the form. Choose admin with global access or admin for specific rooms only to set a chat moderator.

NOTE: If you set a user as admin for a chat room, then this will allow other WordPress users from your database to login with the chat automatically and set passwords only for the administrators.

With these easy steps, you now have moderators, who can help you monitor your chat. Who knows, you might even use the moderated chat as your preferred chat type.

The features you need are here at your expense. With the right platform, you can expect virtual socializing to be successful.

Check out this list of features that RumbleTalk offers and see how it can help level up virtual socialization.

Features you need for virtual socializing

Group chat: messaging, sending files/images

Of course, group chats cannot be missing from virtual socialization. How can you talk to your team or client if you don’t have the right tool?

Group chats are perfect for virtual socializing since anyone can chat. If one of your team members need to say something, then they can send any message they want to relay.

Another feature of the group chat is that anyone can send files for sharing. RumbleTalk supports PDF, Word, Excel, and PowerPoint. Users can also share images and audio/video files.

Also, users can take selfies and record short audio and video messages that are playable in-chat.

All in all, a group chat lets you hold virtual socializations instantaneously.

Private chat: private messaging, one-on-one audio/video calls

The private chat has a number of features that you can use for virtual socializing: private messaging and one-on-one video calls.

Another great feature is requesting private payments. This can be used for requesting payment from clients. Thanks to this, payments are made easy! No need to go to the bank or open any other app for an online transfer.

Moderated chat: pre-approve messages, Q&A mode

The moderated chat has the same features offered in the group chat. However, think of it as an upgraded version since the moderated chat lets you pre-approve messages.

What does that mean? This means that admins can approve or delete messages before they get sent in the chat. Users will not be able to see messages from other users unless they have been approved by admins.

Therefore, you can use the moderated chat as a Q&A mode for virtual socializing. Switch up your virtual social session and let your team/clients ask questions about the topic you’re currently talking about.

Then, as the admin, choose the questions you want to answer. Your team/clients will see it once you approve it so messages won’t be as cluttered as in a group chat.

Bonus features

Admin mode

In the group chat or moderated chat, you can enable admin mode. The admin mode is a feature that admins can use to force users to stop typing or sending messages.

When activated, only admins can talk with each other. Admins can take advantage of this feature to relay important announcements or notifications.

For example, if you’re the head of your team, you can use admin mode to address important topics in the chat before letting your team type in their comments.

To enable admin mode, go to your chat menu. One of the options there is admin mode. Click it to enable the feature. As seen in the example above, non-admin users will see it on their chat boxes so they cannot type or send messages.

For admin users, they will see it on the upper part of the screen. Therefore, they can still send messages in the chat.

Exporting chat transcripts

If you want to export your chat transcript, then open the chat menu. Click Export transcript and it will automatically download your chat transcript in HTML format.
