What communication channels I have to use for ICO?

[matrasatan]

Hi! I am wondering what channels are "must" for ICO?
Why do people use Telegram for Q&A?
Do I have to create a topic on bitcointalk for my ICO?
Thank you, hope that you will help me!

Are you thinking of releasing an ICO?  If so I believe creating a thread/topic on this forum under Altcoins/Announcement is what you should do.   I've seen a lot of ICOs have a chat group on Telegram or Slack so that is a common practice.  A lot of new projects also go to Reddit and create their own subreddit so they can post discussions/announcements and people can post topics related to them.  Also a lot of projects create a twitter account to update/communicate with users.

Hello. you should have the following:
Bitcointakl Ann thread
Bitcointalk Bounty Thread
Bitcoin Talk Airdrop
Telegram
Twitter
No Facebook today 
Source code github
discord
a very good website with a white paper and roadmap 
Good luck

Telegram and Twitter are good to promote ICO, you can also create discussion and announcement thread about an ico if it is not already posted.

Here's what I think might be added to this list:

Reddit
Twitter
Blackhatworld
Cryptocompare
Facebook is a must
Instagram perhaps

Slack

This is my recommendation.  Great software, even if it does use a ton of resources for what it is.

Running an ICO, I believe the following are beneficial:

Your ICO website (of course)
Twitter
Discord (much more organized than Telegram)
Bitcoin Talk Announcement/Bounty Threads

Many people prefer to interact on telegram which is most preferably but you need to create thread on bitcointalk too and also be updating on twitter frequently....


I stil prefer to get q & a at telegram

About Slack, it's really convenient to use.  However, I've seen some scammer slack bots messaging people with phishing site links.  I don't believe it's possible for moderators to remove these bots.  This could be annoying / an issue for your community.

You've got enough recommandations I think. The only thing that we should remind at this point is beware of phishing scam and pump&dump groups.
