Make A Group On Facebook By Yourself

To make a group on Facebook, make sure you are on the home page. Click the Home tab on the top of the screen if you are not. On the left of the screen under the thumbnail of your picture is a list. Under News Feed, Messages, Events, and Friends will be the option Create Group. Select this option.

A window will pop up. The first box in the window is labeled Group Name and begins with an icon. Clicking the icon reveals a drop-down menu. Select the icon you want. Then type in a name. You should use keywords and phrases in the name when you make a group on Facebook. When these phrases and words are entered in a search, it will show up in the results.

In the Members box type in the beginning of a friends name you want to invite. Facebook will search for friends as you type. A list of names from your friends list matching the letters you've entered will appear. Using this list you can quickly select friends you want to add as members of your group.

Next, choose your privacy settings. When you select the Open privacy option, the list of members and content of your group will be made public. When you select the Closed privacy option, members will remain public but the content will become private. With a Secret privacy selection, members and content will both be private. Press the Create button.

Another window will pop up. Click the Okay button. You will go to your groups main page. Click the Edit Group button at the top right. This will redirect you to the Basic Information page.

Under name and the list of members will be a line labeled Email Address. Click the Set Up Group Email button. A pop-up window will appear. Type in an email address. Emails sent to this address will be received by all members. Once you have created an email address, select the Create Email button. You will be taken back to the Basic Information page.

Under the Email Address line is a box called Description. Type any information you want others to know about your group into this box. This description can be viewed by other Facebook members if your privacy setting is Closed or Open. Next, click the Back to Group button on the top right corner. You will go back to the main page of your group. Select the Edit Settings button on the top right of the page.

A new window will appear. Following the label Notify me When is a drop-down menu where you can control alerts for group comments and posts. These notifications will be sent to your Facebook account email unless you select the Edit Your Notifications Settings link. Clicking this link allows you to change the email address.

Next, select whether or not you want your group to show up in home navigation. Lastly, choose to either check or uncheck the box for the option Send me Group Chat Messages. If you uncheck the box, group chat messages will not be sent to you. Click the Save Settings button.
