Anyone with a Facebook account has the ability to establish and use a Trick Group. This is not special or readily available by means of Organisation Pages, however is an excellent resource especially for small companies that don't utilize tools like Salesforce, Yammer, or BaseCamp for callaboration, collaborating schedules, and sharing marketing concepts.
There are 3 types of Secret Groups:
- Public: anyone can see your Group and discover it in search
- Closed: anyone can see your group, but just members can see and make posts
- Secret: only members can see and make posts
Trick Group Security.
- Secret Groups are not indexed by Google.
- If somebody has the URL to your Secret Group they can not get without being welcomed.
- If your Secret Group URL is posted in another Secret Group, the URL is still not visible or accessible.
Keep in mind: You will get notifications to your personal News Feed, however only you will be able to see them, not your Friends.
Producing a Trick Group.
You should first have a personal Facebook account to create a Secret Group:.

- Click Produce Group.
- Name your Group and pick your icon from the drop down menu.
- Include members to your Trick Group (you need to be good friends with them to contribute to the group); add them to the member box.
- If you want to include members who are not your friends, create the Group as 'Closed' initially, then alter the Group setting to Secret.
- Select your Personal privacy Setting and click Create.
Below are screen shots for each step in creating your Group.
Remember your Group MUST be Closed if you are going to add members you are not good friends with.
Select your Secret Group icon (this is optional).
Keep in mind to change your Group Setting from 'Closed" to "Secret" if you have actually invited members that you are not friends with in the previous action.
Before you begin utilizing your brand-new Trick Group we would suggest that you inspect your Settings. The Settings icon is located on the best side of your brand-new feed under the pictures.
Your Secret Group is now ready for personal usage with your members. Start sharing photos, email addresses, and teaming up on tasks.
