Creating a Facebook group is a great way to connect with other people who share your interests. It can also be used to share information, advice, or tips. To create a Facebook group, you first need to create an account on the social media site. Then, you need to decide what type of group you want to create. There are three types of groups: online groups, offline groups, and chat groups. Online Groups Online groups are the most popular type of group on Facebook. They can be created by anyone who has an account on the social media site. To create an online group, go to the Group Settings page and click on the Create Group button. Then, enter a name for your new group and click on the OK button. When you add members to your new online group, you’ll need to provide them with an email address and password. You can also require members to sign in before they can join your group. Once they’re added, members can start sharing content and messages within their newgroup. Offline Groups Offline groups are perfect for people who don’t have access to Facebook or other social media sites. They can be created by emailing members of your organization with a request for them to join your newgroup. Once someone is added as a member of your offline group, they can start sharing content and messages within thatgroup without havingto sign in or use another social media site. Chat Groups
Facebook Groups are a great way for people with a common interest or who are members of the same club, society, or community to communicate. I’m in Groups for hobbies like Photography, but also for local things like the village I live in.
You’re probably already a member of a few Facebook Groups, but if you want to start your own, here’s how.
Open Facebook, click the downward facing arrow in the top right and select Create Group.
Start by giving the Group a name. I’ve gone with Justin Pot Fan Club.
Next, select who you want to invite to join. I’ve invited a few of my coworkers who I know are also big Justin Pot fans. Facebook will also suggest some Friends you might want to add.
You also need to set the privacy for your Group. You have three options: Open, Closed, and Secret. In a Public Group, anyone can join whenever they want. Anyone can also see what members post in the group. In a Closed Group, anyone can ask to join, but they’ll need to be approved by another member to see posts—posts in Closed Groups are hidden from non-members. A Secret Group is even more private than a Closed Group. New people have to be invited by members. Only current and former members can even see it exists.
Select the privacy setting that best suits your needs and click Create. I’ve gone with a Closed Group.
Every Group needs an icon. This is what appears in the Facebook sidebar next to its name. Select one and click OK.
And that’s the Group created.
Now you can customize it to your liking. Add a Cover Photo, Description, Location, and Tags so people can see what it’s about. You can also invite more members if you want to.
That’s the Group up and ready for use. Now any member will be able to use it.
