How To Create A Secret Facebook Group


Anyone with a Facebook account is able to establish and utilize a Trick Group. This is not exclusive or offered through Service Pages, but is a fantastic resource particularly for little companies that don't utilize tools like Salesforce, Yammer, or BaseCamp for callaboration, coordinating schedules, and sharing marketing concepts.

There are three kinds of Secret Groups:

  • Public: anyone can see your Group and find it in search

  • Closed: anybody can see your group, however just members can see and make posts

  • Secret: only members can see and make posts



Secret Group Security.

  • Secret Groups are not indexed by Google.

  • If somebody has the URL to your Trick Group they can not access without being invited.

  • If your Secret Group URL is posted in another Secret Group, the URL is still not visible or accessible.


Note: You will receive notifications to your individual News Feed, however only you will be able to see them, not your Friends.

Developing a Secret Group.

You must first have a personal Facebook account to produce a Secret Group:.

  • Go to http://facebook.com/groups.

  • Click on Produce Group.

  • Call your Group and pick your icon from the drop down menu.

  • Add members to your Trick Group (you need to be good friends with them to contribute to the group); include them to the member box.

  • If you want to consist of members who are not your good friends, create the Group as 'Closed' first, then change the Group setting to Secret.

  • Select your Personal privacy Setting and click Develop.


Below are screen shots for each action in producing your Group.

Remember your Group MUST be Closed if you are going to add members you are not buddies with.

Select your Trick Group icon (this is optional).

Keep in mind to change your Group Setting from 'Closed" to "Secret" if you have welcomed members that you are not friends with in the previous step.

Before you start using your brand-new Secret Group we would recommend that you examine your Settings. The Settings icon is situated on the right side of your brand-new feed under the photos.

Your Secret Group is now prepared for private use with your members. Start sharing pictures, e-mail addresses, and collaborating on tasks.
