however i would still advise groups if both traffic nd community is what you want to achieve. it is more appropriate to have ur website if uh plan to create ur brand but groups can provide much higher engagement bcz people are already interested in ur product.

Imo, groups are still worth it if the niche is active. They can bring more engagement and organic reach than a page, but I'd use both if you have the time.

Yes, they're still worth growing - there are lots of opportunities to monetise them through sponsorship or pushing paid products and given the traffic is 100% free, it's gravy. That is not to say it should be your only source - far from it - but used with others it can be very profitable indeed.

Imo group are still useful if there is any conversation that is happening within the group. the page are useful for brand building, but niche groups have credibility nd bring repeat traffic without constantly spending on reach.

Yes, much better than a page. Both in terms of reach and engaged audience.

Groups are still very effective in my opinion, but when you are actually putting effort in, instead of spamming links. A page is more effective for developing your own following, which is why I would use groups for finding, and a page for keeping.

groups still work imo, especially in smaller niche where people actually talk. I had use the group for engagement nd the page for brand visibility, they serve different purposes.

Yes, I’ve seen that as well. Groups work much better when it comes to having an engaging conversation, but the page helps you to create a brand identity and retain your audience.

fb groups are still one of the best assets for high organic reach, loyal community building, and free targeted traffic. while pages rely heavily on ad spend, a well-monitored group gives you direct access to engaged users through notification pushes and peer discussions. the most effective strategy is running both together: use the Page for broad reach and ads, then funnel warm traffic into your Group for long-term retention

Groups are worth it if you have an active audience in them. Bonus if people are in your business niche you can sell your products/services to them or monetize the groups with affiliate marketing.

Facebook groups remain highly effective if you leverage them well; they generate steady traffic and allow you to expand your community, helping you build a reputable brand by engaging with various groups within the platform.

I think Facebook groups are still thriving. Most of the time, when we want to find something on Facebook, we look for it within groups.

yeh, groups win hands down for actual community/traffic, no contest - Pages are basically pay-to-play now, while Groups still get genuine algorithmic priority in the notification feed n ppl actually engage there like it's 2015
