Facebook conversion

We went through Facebook Pages, Groups and Profile and  Their Differences earlier. This blog post is to know more about the Facebook Conversions and merging of these popular facebook features

At different points in time, we might have been looking to convert the features of Facebook from one form to another. Facebook profile to a page, a group to a page, or a page to a group, etc. There are multiple reasons to do that.

One such example is being unaware of the difference between the features, Starting a page for a community/group and later realise that a Facebook group should have been started rather than a page.

The below is to know whether the conversion is possible and how to do it(All the responses given here are based on Facebook Help Center and Community:

Converting Facebook Group into a Page

It is currently not possible to convert Facebook groups into Pages. We recommend that you create a Page and notify your group members about it.



Even though there is no limit to the number of people your group can have, you will not be able to send your group a message if it has more than 250 members. If your group has more than 250 members, notify them by posting in the group.



Instead, create a new Page and notify your group members that you'll be using the Page instead of the group going forward.

Facebook Pages, Groups and Profile; Their Differences

Facebook provides different features for people, organizations and brands/businesses to have them connected and engaged with friends, family and other audience/community.

We might get confused and create the wrong entity to represent ourselves on Facebook.

Facebook Pages are for celebrities, businesses, organizations and brands to share their stories and connect/engage with audience created by official representatives.

Facebook Groups are for specific sets of people who have similar interests on an individual entity, be it a brand, business, person, event or anything.

Facebook Profile timeline are for individuals/people for sharing their photos, stories, and experiences to their family, friends and people they wish.

Use of Facebook profiles by business entities and creating a page by a person not related to the entity are against the Facebook Terms and conditions.

To better understand the differences between Facebook Page, Group or Profile, the below tabular representation will be helpful:

	Page	Group	Profile
For	Brands, Businesses, Celebrities, Organizations, and such entities	People with common interest	Individuals, Non-commercial
Managed by	Profile - Official representative	Profile - any individual	Individual
Who can see Posts/Updates and other information	Public – can be seen by all(except targeted)	Open – available to everyone; Closed – limited access; Secret – Only members	Public; Friends of Friends; Friends only; Only me
Who can post on timeline	Everyone; None; Moderated	Moderated by admin; Anyone; Members only; None	Friends only; Only me
Audience	Anyone can like and join a page	Accepted/added by admin;	Friends; Followers (public updates)
Apps	Available	No	No
Page Insights	Available	No	No
Message	Can send to a page	Need to be sent to administrators	Can send to a profile

Basically, a page need to be created and managed by an official representative; has more options to engage with the audience and monitor the results. A group has lesser controls based on analytics. Profiles are for individuals only.
