Why? It&#8217;s convenient, low-cost, and there are countless ways to connect with people worldwide. However, if you\u2019ve ever attended boring meetings or classes, you would know that a digital event can also be a failure if not executed properly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The key to a successful digital event is moderation. Hosts are in charge of moderating their events to ensure that participants are having the time of their lives. This entails interaction like answering questions and creating two-way communication rather than just holding a class to several attendees.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Before you host a digital event, follow these tips for successful moderation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Moderation: Why is it so important?<\/h2>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"800\" height=\"600\" src=\"https:\/\/d241b8qep9dzid.cloudfront.net\/20200203091120\/qa_session.png\" alt=\"audience interaction\" class=\"wp-image-8014\" srcset=\"https:\/\/d241b8qep9dzid.cloudfront.net\/20200203091120\/qa_session.png 800w, https:\/\/d241b8qep9dzid.cloudfront.net\/20200203091120\/qa_session-300x225.png 300w, https:\/\/d241b8qep9dzid.cloudfront.net\/20200203091120\/qa_session-768x576.png 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<p>Have you ever attended an event where the speaker doesn&#8217;t acknowledge the <a href=\"https:\/\/rumbletalk.com\/virtual-events-chat\/\">virtual events chat<\/a> (or entirely disables the chat option)? One-sided events are not engaging. When there&#8217;s no medium or platform for communication, participants might as well watch a YouTube video.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Another common scenario in events is digital event hosts choose to disable live chats. This is because they&#8217;re scared of the messages getting out of hand. However, if you appoint a moderator and plan your event beforehand, it&#8217;s easy to keep track of messages.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Ultimately, it&#8217;s a win-win situation when you moderate your events. The more you interact and engage with your audience, the more likely to attend your future events.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The perfect tool for your digital event<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Moderating a digital event doesn&#8217;t have to be expensive. You don&#8217;t need to download software if you don&#8217;t want to. So, here&#8217;s what you need to moderate your event.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Within your event platform.&nbsp;<\/strong>Whether you&#8217;re live streaming on social media, YouTube, or a dedicated event platform, there should be a&nbsp;<a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.rumbletalk.com\/blog\/index.php\/2021\/07\/14\/chat-events\/\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">dedicated chat for your event<\/a>&nbsp;where participants can send in their questions. In turn, speakers will answer them during the event.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>In a separate chat or page<\/strong>. If you don&#8217;t want to use a chat next to your event (might be too distracting for you), or if you need a place where everyone can connect before the event, create a page or site for your event. This can serve as a platform for your participants to connect, even after the event. Follow-up questions can be answered here.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Use your moderation tool<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>RumbleTalk has a dedicated chat for events. It&#8217;s called the&nbsp;<a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/rumbletalk.com\/moderated\">moderated chat<\/a>. It lets admins pre-approve messages. Admins serve as moderators of the chat. They are in charge of controlling what goes in and out of the chat room.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"800\" height=\"587\" src=\"https:\/\/d241b8qep9dzid.cloudfront.net\/20190619050855\/moderator_view.png\" alt=\"q&amp;a live session\" class=\"wp-image-6954\" srcset=\"https:\/\/d241b8qep9dzid.cloudfront.net\/20190619050855\/moderator_view.png 800w, https:\/\/d241b8qep9dzid.cloudfront.net\/20190619050855\/moderator_view-300x220.png 300w, https:\/\/d241b8qep9dzid.cloudfront.net\/20190619050855\/moderator_view-768x564.png 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">admin view<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<p>Non-admins users are free to send messages.
