What are Twitter Spaces

In simple terms, Twitter Spaces are organized audio chatrooms with advanced options. Twitter launched ‘Spaces’ for a wider audience in May and it has been a huge hit from day one. Twitterati are loving this new form of communication. Spaces are buzzing with celebrities, influencers, and businesses making their voice heard every day.

Yes! Audio chats, Podcasts, and similar content are existing for a long time. But they were never as interactive and convenient as a Twitter Space is. If you are someone who is constantly looking for ways to rock the Twitter world, then it’s time for you to explore and utilize Spaces to the fullest. Trust us, Spaces are fun.

Twitter Space Guidelines

Oftentimes, new entrants miss out on understanding a few things about spaces. To make things easy for you, we’d give you a sneak peek into the Spaces in this blog. Spaces give a good amount of control to its host. This is one of the most important reasons for Twitter Spaces to be successful. Anyone who wants to talk in a particular Space needs the host’s approval. As soon as the host adds a speaker, he/she can talk to the entire audience. Twitter currently allows as many as 11 speakers at a given point in time. Hosts are also allowed to download the conversation too. Twitter holds the Spaces conversation for 30 days in case where “review for violations of the Twitter Rules” is needed.

If a speaker goes out of limits or talks non-relevant things, the host can mute the speaker straight away. In worst cases, hosts can remove speakers from a Space too. Hence it is easier to maintain appropriate conversations in Spaces. The listeners have the option to react to the speaker. That adds some interest.

Twitter allows listeners to access captions when a speaker is talking. Also, there is no time limit set for Spaces as by Twitter. Hosts have an option to share tweets in the Spaces too. In this way, they can present, demonstrate or run a conversation very easily.

Joining a Space is easy. You can follow the link shared by the host or you can straight away jump into Spaces of people you follow. Since Spaces are publicly hosted, there is no need for any permissions to enter any Space.

NFL (National Football League) has announced that they are going to make exclusive content for Spaces throughout the season.

We have discussed multiple times in many of our blogs about the importance of your followers’ feelings about being heard. Well, Twitter now has made it easy for you.

Other than Q&A sessions, you can also host interactive sessions for your product launch and other similar events.
