Hi All! I am trying to grow a facebook group for my business. I am using this as a free traffic generator. Anyone have any thoughts or methods on how to grow the group?

Hi Rebecca I can only comment on my personal experiences so here goes:

I run a nature travel website. It gets good visits via Google but I wanted to expand into pinterest and facebook, so I made a Facebook fan page and trying to get visitors organically to it from Facebook itself proved useless.

However one thing I have begun doing is mass boosting my posts to attract website visitors and followers to my page using Facebook's ads to boost those posts and that has been showing a lot of promise. It's a process but the way the rules work for SEO and traffic in Google is not the same as it is for Facebook's organic traffic and so far I've concluded that it's better to use ads to get cheap traffic from Facebook to boost my FB posts I share and grow a following there to develop a secondary flow of traffic overtime, then if there's enough followers, to stop boosting ads and let it run organically with a huge following.

Things you can do.

Provide value.
Engage regularly.
Promote externally.
Collaborate with other group admins.
Utilize paid advertising.
Encourage current members to invite friends.
Set clear rules.
Pin welcome posts.

You need to edit the question and remove the Facebook group, as this may be considered self-promotion, which is not allowed on the Wealthy Affiliate platform. I appreciate your understanding.
