Tips to keep your facebook Group active

We’re all known to the fact that facebook provides a very beneficial feature to its users: The facebook groups. Not much to say, as everybody is quite familiar with them.

Let’s ‘quickly’ stick to the headline to let you know how you may keep your facebook group active.

Before I go on with the tips let’s get to know the answers to some questions you should know or you can just jump to the points...:-P

Why do we need an ‘active group?’, ‘What is the significance of it?’ or ‘How to they become inactive?’

Starting with the first question, the need of these groups is immense if you are using it for business purpose. A lot of members can make you and your busniess quite famous! It’s just like the concept facebook pages; the more number of fans will get you more benefit. Similarily, more number of members will do the same for you! Now getting just a group or an inactive group is of NO USE! People don’t see your posts, ads or anything you want to highlight. So, an active group is a must.

Significance of groups is clearly understandable. From business purpose, reviews, GK to fun and entertainment; everything you can take out of it!

Now this is quite noticable. Why do they get inactive!? Common reasons are like not posting much or not engaging your members in the group. Other proved reasons are the privacy options and niche. You will come to know my points with the points given below.

How to keep your facebook group active?

• Good theme and name: A good theme or name of the blog that is understandable and enjoyed by all kinds of people is considered best to approach members to your blog. Getting more members will automatically keep your group active. Like if you want to grow a group for your website promotion, don’t keep the name of your website as the name of the group. Keep a good and attractive name whether you keep posting your website links in the group.

• Facebook profile codes: *Star Point* this is utmost important! Get profile codes of all your members and use them in comments of your posts in the group to reach their notifications. These codes, when used on facebook give a notification to the user. When the user clicks on the notification, it reaches the location where he’s mentioned with his code. In this way, more people will reach your group and keep it active! You can find any profile code by using this website. Further to mention the user, just out in the code wherever you want to in this form: @[code_of_the_profile:]

• Privacy Options: If you don’t have anything you want to hide in your group then I would recommend you to keep your group privacy to Open Group. This will let people enter your group without your permission. The major advantage is that whenever anybody asks to join your group, all his friends (which are already added to your group) will get notification of his request. And as a result, people will enter your group even more!

• Post Good Stuff: Not only in groups, good stuff is admired everywhere! If you just post your website links in your group, it may create boredom for your members and people may start avoiding your group. So, it is advised to keep posting things which people like to read. Just like you can post movie reviews, stories, facts, jokes and whatever which people admire.

• Posting Limitations: Though when people post random things in a group, it is not much admired. Still, I suggest you not to keep limitations over your members to post in your group. In simple words, let your members give the chance to post. The reason behind this is quite simple! When people will post in your group, their friends will get to know about it through notifications and news feed and more people will reach your group. You may pin your own post in the group which will be visible to all those who visit your group.

Thank You! ;-)
