Telegram bot overview

Telegram is a well-known messenger for exchanging files or messages. For ease of use, Telegram bots were written and implemented, a list of which includes hundreds of assistants for any topic.

What are bots?

These are special utilities designed to perform specific commands or actions.

Such robots help the user solve a specific question – find a ticket, book a hotel room, work as a search engine or manage a “smart home”.

On the basis of bots, they develop online games, trading platforms, assistants for online stores.

The entire catalog of bots in Telegram is designed to save time, since robots work around the clock without stopping. They act as intermediaries between the subscriber and the Web service.

How to use them

The first robots that appeared were launched by manually entering a command. Now each bot is equipped with a menu and a list of understandable tasks. Interaction with utilities does not require special knowledge or skills: a request is simply typed into the chat, and after a couple of seconds the answer appears.

The catalog of Telegram bots is large. To work safely with catalog, keep the following in mind:

  • Do not give assistants personal confidential information;
  • no need to send them scans of documents from a PC or other devices (the exception may be the official Telegram Passport site);
  • care must be taken to make offers easy to earn and check them first.

 How to find the right one

You can find bot in the same way as searching for channels of interest:

  • use the search in Google;
  • resort to the service of the assistant @StoreBot. Start a conversation by running the / search command. To the question “What do you want to find?” you need to write a keyword: earn, analyst, sale, promotion, formatting, reviews, analysis, 2020, etc. From the proposed matches, select the appropriate option.

Possible difficulties

A common problem is the lack of a program answer to a asked question. The main reason is server failure or its failure.

It happens that a programmer made a mistake when he wrote code.

Perhaps the user enters an incorrect command, and the utility simply does not understand it. In this case, the best action would be to find out the correction path in Google.
