A live stream group chat can provide you with the necessary medium to connect with your audience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Live streams are what&#8217;s trending in today&#8217;s digital world. When you start a live stream, the audience will be flocking in. This is why you should create a live stream chat next to your chosen live stream platform to interact with your audience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Why do we need to engage with the audience?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>It&#8217;s simple. Without the audience, your live stream will be not impactful. When you create a conversation with the participants, you give them a reason to stay. When they stay, there is a higher chance that they will invite other people to the live stream.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Another thing is that some stay for the live stream chat. They love interacting with other people who have the same interests. So, seeing a live chat can pique their interest.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Prepare for questions beforehand<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Questions are always included in live streams. The moderated chat allows you to host a <a href=\"https:\/\/rumbletalk.com\/blog\/index.php\/2020\/08\/24\/qa-live-session\/\">Q&amp;A session<\/a> through the live stream chat. The audience can ask you about the product, next topics, follow-up, or more. This goes the same for you. If you want to ask the audience a question, they can send in their answers in the live stream chat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, sometimes there are too many people in the chat. You could overlook questions and not be able to answer them. In this scenario, you should bring backup. Backup means <a href=\"https:\/\/rumbletalk.com\/blog\/index.php\/knowledge-base\/how-to-add-a-new-user-in-your-chat\/\">appointing administrators<\/a> to become moderators.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"737\" height=\"596\" src=\"https:\/\/d241b8qep9dzid.cloudfront.net\/20210322053514\/adminglobal.png\" alt=\"live stream group chat\" class=\"wp-image-9576\" srcset=\"https:\/\/d241b8qep9dzid.cloudfront.net\/20210322053514\/adminglobal.png 737w, https:\/\/d241b8qep9dzid.cloudfront.net\/20210322053514\/adminglobal-300x243.png 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 737px) 100vw, 737px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<p>With the help of the moderated chat, moderators can choose which messages will be approved or not. Therefore, only relevant questions and answers will be seen in the chat room.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This makes it easier to keep with the conversation. At the start of the <a href=\"https:\/\/rumbletalk.com\/virtual-events-chat\/\">virtual event<\/a>, don&#8217;t forget to introduce them. They will be the contact persons of the participants and they can alert the moderators if something happens.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As they are going to man the conversation, you should also keep a side chat open to communicate with them if anything happens.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To create a <a href=\"https:\/\/rumbletalk.com\/blog\/index.php\/2021\/09\/28\/moderated-chat-feature\/\">moderated chat<\/a>, follow these simple steps.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol>\n<li>On your admin panel, click&nbsp;<strong><em>Settings<\/em><\/strong>&nbsp;&gt;&nbsp;<strong><em>General &amp; Logins<\/em><\/strong>.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Under&nbsp;<strong><em>Chat Type<\/em><\/strong>, select&nbsp;<strong><em>Moderated chat<\/em><\/strong>.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>After choosing your chat type, when you login as an admin in the chat room, you will see that messages will have check and cross boxes.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\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\/20210826092556\/approve.png\" alt=\"live events\" class=\"wp-image-11068\" srcset=\"https:\/\/d241b8qep9dzid.cloudfront.net\/20210826092556\/approve.png 800w, https:\/\/d241b8qep9dzid.cloudfront.net\/20210826092556\/approve-300x220.png 300w, https:\/\/d241b8qep9dzid.cloudfront.net\/20210826092556\/approve-768x564.png 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<p>Now, moderators can easily check the chat for spam, irrelevant questions, and trolls. It will be a hassle-free chatting experience for everyone.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Engage with the audience through the live stream group chat<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Don&#8217;t forget to talk to your audience when hosting the live stream. It&#8217;s what they came for. When you forget the most important thing, it defeats the purpose of having a live stream chat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Users like to feel valued. To talk to your audience, mention them in the chat room. You can use the&nbsp;<strong><em><a href=\"https:\/\/rumbletalk.com\/blog\/index.php\/2020\/02\/12\/mentions\/\">Mentions<\/a><\/em><\/strong>&nbsp;feature to capture their attention.<\/p>\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\/20200204071559\/mentions.gif\" alt=\"live stream chat\" class=\"wp-image-8025\"\/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<p>Use the <a href=\"https:\/\/rumbletalk.com\/blog\/index.php\/2021\/04\/15\/send-photos\/\">media and file sharing feature<\/a> to share interesting videos and images that are still on topic. It&#8217;s a great way to disperse relevant information without having to leave the chat room.<\/p>\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\/20210330090342\/addfile.png\" alt=\"chat platform\" class=\"wp-image-9632\" srcset=\"https:\/\/d241b8qep9dzid.cloudfront.net\/20210330090342\/addfile.png 800w, https:\/\/d241b8qep9dzid.cloudfront.net\/20210330090342\/addfile-300x225.png 300w, https:\/\/d241b8qep9dzid.cloudfront.net\/20210330090342\/addfile-768x576.png 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<p>Lastly, to make your audience feel welcome, <a href=\"https:\/\/rumbletalk.com\/blog\/index.php\/knowledge-base\/add-a-welcome-message\/\">add a welcome message<\/a>. A welcome message pops up when the participant first enters the chat room. You can type up to 1024 characters, so get creative!<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"799\" height=\"592\" src=\"https:\/\/d241b8qep9dzid.cloudfront.net\/20200617085725\/welcomemessage.png\" alt=\"live group chat\" class=\"wp-image-8380\" srcset=\"https:\/\/d241b8qep9dzid.cloudfront.net\/20200617085725\/welcomemessage.png 799w, https:\/\/d241b8qep9dzid.cloudfront.net\/20200617085725\/welcomemessage-300x222.png 300w, https:\/\/d241b8qep9dzid.cloudfront.net\/20200617085725\/welcomemessage-768x569.png 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 799px) 100vw, 799px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<p>This little extra work can make a huge impact on your audience.
