Facebook Communities – What’s the Difference???

Fan Pages are visible to unregistered people and are thus indexed on search engines and visible to EVERYONE! Example: site:facebook.com pages "medical device“ ). Pages are generally better for a long-term relationships with your fans, readers or customers.

Groups are better for viral marketing, meaning that any group member can also send bulk invites to the friends of his. Groups are generally better for hosting a (quick) active discussion and attracting quick attention. (Also indexed on search engines and visible by everyone).

Good News!About 15 million users. (They don’t publish the

actual number of active user accounts.)

Bad News! So much to learn. Difficult to “tweet” frequently.

60% of new users fail to return the following month, (Nielsen Reports). Only 5% of Twitter's users

account for 75% of all the activity on the service, (Sysomos).

Good News! Easily searchable.
