A Facebook Group is a place for group communication, where people can share common interests and voice their opinions. Groups bring people together around a common goal, issue, or activity to organize, express goals, discuss problems, post photos, and share related content. Anyone can create and manage a Facebook Group, and you can even join up to 6,000 other groups.

Here are some quick facts about how Facebook groups work:

Groups on Facebook have undergone changes since they were first implemented. There was a time when a user’s groups appeared on their own personal page. So if you were in a group called “Football Fans,” anyone who could see your profile would know that about you.

However, these types of open forums are now known as Facebook Pages, created by businesses, celebrities and brands to connect with their audience and post interesting content. Only administrators of Pages can post on the account, while those who like the Page can comment on all posts and photos.
