Telegram Channel Reach 2026: median views per subscriber by channel size, 3.2M public channels Emirhan Güven (25074274) Emirhan Güven (25074277) Marketing communications Marketing technology Communication and media studies not elsewhere classified Telegram Telegram channels post views reach subscribers social media messaging open data <p>Views relative to subscribers across 3,205,346 public Telegram channels, reported as the median per subscriber band, plus the size and language distribution of the catalogue. Reach is the average number of views per post divided by the subscriber count, taken per channel; the dataset gives the median of that ratio for each size band.</p><p>Median reach: 31.4% on channels with 1,000 to 5,000 subscribers (7,179 channels measured), 15.8% at 5k to 20k (2,750), 9.1% at 20k to 100k (1,201), 6.0% at 100k to 500k (8,380, every channel in the band) and 3.3% above 500,000 subscribers (1,211, every channel in the band). Of the channels with a known subscriber count, 85.7% have fewer than 1,000 subscribers and roughly 7,900 pass 100,000. Russian accounts for 27.0% of sampled channels, English 12.1%, Arabic 6.0% and Persian 5.6%.</p><p>Limits: Telegram's view counter includes views through forwards and web previews by non-subscribers, so reach can overstate the share of subscribers who saw a post; inflated subscriber counts pull it down. Bands below 100,000 subscribers are sample estimates. Language is detected automatically from short descriptions.</p><p>Files: telegram-channel-reach-2026.csv holds the summary tables (median reach by band, subscriber band share, language share); telegram-channel-reach-2026.json holds the full dataset with sample sizes and estimated channel counts.</p><p>Full report with charts and FAQ: <a href="https://pinlyx.com/research/telegram-channel-reach-2026">https://pinlyx.com/research/telegram-channel-reach-2026</a></p><p>Published by Pinlyx under CC BY 4.0.
