Best Ways to Build Online Communities for Engagement?

[Afsha]

Hi everyone,

I’m currently exploring ways to build and grow online communities effectively. We all know that engagement is key, but what are the best strategies to keep members active and involved?

For instance, WhatsApp groups have become a great tool for niche communities. I’ve seen a lot of people using them for regional networking and discussions, such as in Sri Lanka-based groups where professionals and students connect. Here’s an example: https://whatsgrouplinkspk.com/sri-lanka-whatsapp-group-links/.

Has anyone here used WhatsApp groups or similar platforms alongside Atlassian tools to drive engagement? Would love to hear your experiences and tips!

Looking forward to your insights.

Thanks!
