Guide to planning valid TG numbers in the United States by region: Ideas for splitting tasks in the East, West, South and Midwest

For the overseas marketing team focusing on the US market, obtaining the US valid TG number cannot be solved by a simple batch screening. Telegram users are distributed in four major regions of the United States - the East, West, South and Midwest, with different time zone differences, user profiles and active habits. If a unified full-scale testing strategy is adopted, not only may the testing balance be wasted, but it will also be difficult to match precise regional operational needs. From a practical perspective, this article teaches you how to split the number generation and screening tasks by region, efficiently obtain US Telegram activation numbers, and improve customer acquisition ROI.

Why filter valid TG numbers in the United States according to the United States regional plan?

After receiving a batch of U.S. numbers, many teams directly submitted all the screening numbers. As a result, they found that users in the east were active in the morning, while users in the west were concentrated in the evening, resulting in misalignment of subsequent contact times. More importantly, the detection of US TG valid numbers is billed on a per-item basis. Full tasks often generate a large number of “dead numbers”, and regional planning can control costs in a refined manner.

The practical significance of regional targeting for overseas marketing

• Time Zone Match: Eastern (EST) is 3 hours ahead of Western (PST). If you plan to send private messages or community invitations during user active periods, you can set different active windows by region (for example, select 06:00–10:00 EST in the east, and 18:00–22:00 PST in the west), which will greatly improve the reach rate.
• Differences in user portraits: The West (California, Seattle) has a high proportion of technology practitioners, the East (New York, Boston) is dominated by financial and business people, and the South (Texas, Florida) has a wide range of diversified needs. Through cross-analysis of tg gender and age field, it is possible to filter out segmented groups such as technology practitioners around 30 years old.
• Avoid duplicate detection: Submit in batches by region, combined with deduplication warehouse, to avoid repeated deductions for the same number in multiple batches.

Common misunderstandings about splitting tasks by region

• Mistakenly believing that the area code equals the place of origin: Although the U.S. area code (NPA) indicates the area where the number is located, a large number of numbers may come from roaming users or number pools under this number segment, and the actual place of origin may be inconsistent with the area code. It is recommended to combine number segment generation logic instead of simply cutting by area code.
• Detect all numbers at once: Submitting all 1 million numbers is expensive, and the detection type cannot be adjusted for different regions. The correct approach is to “detect” in small batches first and adjust the generation strategy according to the efficiency.
• Ignore number segments in rural areas of the Midwest: Many states in the Midwest (such as Ohio and Indiana) have fewer number segments, so random generation may not provide enough coverage. You need to use the global number segment generation function and enter the state code or specific area code extension.

Number characteristics and number segment distribution in the four major regions of the United States

Understanding the typical area codes and number segments in each region will help to more accurately target the number during the number generation stage.

Eastern United States (New York, Washington, Florida, etc.)

• Typical cities: New York City (212/917/646), Washington, DC (202), Miami (305/786), Boston (617/857).
• Characteristics of number segments: NPAs are relatively dense, and urban number segments are concentrated. There are many business users and the active time is early (EST 08:00–11:00).
• Applicable scenarios: Finance, law, high-end consumer goods promotion.

Western United States (California, Washington, Oregon, etc.)

• Typical cities: Los Angeles (213/310/424), San Francisco (415/628), Seattle (206/425), Portland (503/971).
• Characteristics of the number segment: An area densely populated by technology companies, with a large number of NPAs but a wide distribution of numbers. Users are active late (PST 18:00–22:00).
• Applicable scenarios: Promotion of technology products, SaaS, and games.

Southern and Midwestern United States (Texas, Georgia, Illinois, Ohio, etc.)

• Typical cities: Houston (713/832/281), Atlanta (404/678/770), Chicago (312/773/872), Columbus (614/380).
• Characteristics of number segments: The user base is large, the number segments are scattered, the number segments in some areas are old, and the activation rate is medium. Active time is average.
• Applicable scenarios: e-commerce, local services, education and training.

How to generate US numbers by region using the Global Number Generator?

KK-DATA console provides global number generation function, which can freely generate candidate numbers for 240+ countries/regions in the United States (1 for the United States), completely free of charge, and per-item deductions will only be made after subsequent screening tasks are completed. Specific operations:

1. Log in to Application Console and find the “Global Number Generation” module.
2. Select the country “United States” and further specify the area code (NPA) or city prefix. For example, to generate a western number, you can enter 213, 415, 310, etc.
3. Set the number of generated items (up to about 1 million items at a time) and click Generate. All numbers that match the rules are returned and can be exported to a CSV file.
4. If you need to cover rural areas in the Midwest, you can use the “Global Number Segment Generation” function, enter the state code (such as OH for Ohio) or import a custom number segment CSV to expand the candidate pool.

How to submit the US TG screening task by region?

After generating the number, enter the “Global Number Screening” module and gradually submit tasks by region.

Step 1: Prepare number list (files by region)

It is recommended that each region have its own CSV file named like US_East_nums.csv, US_West_nums.csv to facilitate subsequent management and comparison. The file format only needs to contain a list of phone numbers (international format +1XXXXXXXXXX), no header is required.

Step 2: Create a task in the console and select detection items

1. Click “New Screening Task” and select the platform Telegram.
2. Select the detection type according to your needs:
   • tg activation (required): Check whether the number has been registered with Telegram.
   • tg active: Specify the active window (such as 7 days, 30 days), and different windows can be set by region.
   • telegram gender: Get gender, age and other fields to assist with targeting.
   • Advanced options: export tgid (Telegram ID), tgs number, etc.
3. Upload the CSV file of the number corresponding to the region. The system will automatically read the number and display the estimated fee (it will prompt you when the balance is insufficient).
4. Click “Submit” and the task enters the queue.

Step 3: Submit the task and wait for notification

The task running time depends on the number of numbers. Once completed, you will receive a notification in the bound Telegram account. The results can be exported to CSV or TXT format, including fields such as activation status, active time, gender, age, etc.

Screen number result analysis and regional comparison strategy

After getting the screening number results for each region, you can analyze them from the following dimensions:

Region	Total number of numbers	Opening rate	Activity rate (within 7 days)	Proportion of men	Proportion of women	Proportion of people around 30 years old
East	100,000	65%	28%	52%	48%	18%
West	100,000	60%	35%	55%	45%	22%
South	100,000	70%	22%	51%	49%	15%
Midwest	100,000	55%	20%	53%	47%	12%

(The above table is a sample format, please refer to the actual test results)

Based on comparative data, targeted reach strategies can be formulated:

• The western region has a high activity rate and can be given priority in active evening periods.
• The south has a high opening rate but a low activity rate, which is suitable for long-term community accumulation.
• If you need to target users around 30 years old, with a higher proportion in the West and East, you can extract it from the age field in the gender detection results.

How to avoid repeated detection and balance waste?

KK-DATA has a built-in data deduplication warehouse. Each number submitted will be automatically compared with historical records, and the detected number will not be deducted repeatedly. However, it is still recommended to manually record the processed numbers of each batch to avoid uploading the same file multiple times. In addition, you can use the “random deduplication” option when generating numbers to ensure that there are no duplicate numbers in the same batch number segment. For key batches, you can first conduct a small-scale deduplication test before submitting the full batch of tasks.

FAQ

**Q: Which city can a valid TG number in the United States be accurate to by area code? ** Answer: The area code (NPA) of a number can roughly correspond to a city or region, but in the actual screening results, the numbers under this number range may come from users who roam to other states. The KK-DATA generation function supports generation by area code and number segment, but it cannot guarantee that 100% of the data will fall in subdivided cities. It is recommended to generate the area code first and then filter the area code, and judge it based on the active region field.

**Q: What is the accuracy of detecting numbers opened by Telegram in the United States? ** Answer: KK-DATA uses multi-channel detection technology, and the results include fields such as activated/unactivated, activity, gender, etc. Accuracy is usually better than 99%, and a very small number of numbers may be misidentified due to network fluctuations. It is recommended to repeat testing or sampling verification on key batches to obtain more stable data.

**Q: How to set the TG active windows in different regions? ** Answer: When creating a TG screening task, after selecting the “tg active” detection, you can specify the active time window (such as the last 7 days, the last 30 days, etc.). Different regions can set different windows according to the target time zone. For example, in the eastern region, select the US Eastern Time weekday daytime window, and in the western region, select the corresponding time zone evening window.

**Q: Can a valid TG number in the United States be used for private message promotion? ** Answer: The detected activated number means that the number has been registered with Telegram. The active number means that it has recent usage records. Gender data can assist in targeting. However, private message promotion must abide by the Telegram platform rules. It is recommended that only numbers that are confirmed to be real users and allowed to be reached are used to avoid account bans.

**Q: How to ensure coverage of rural areas in the Midwest when generating a US number? ** Answer: There are fewer number segments in rural areas in the Midwest. It is recommended to use KK-DATA’s “Global Number Segment Generation” function, enter the state code or specific area code (such as 513/937 corresponding to parts of Ohio), and combine it with custom CSV import and expansion. You can also generate a large number of random numbers first and then filter the activation results to gradually expand the coverage.
