Promoting your group

Groups.io provides some tools to help you promote your group. In the left menu on your group’s website, or from the More menu on a mobile device, select Admin > Preferences > Promote to access tools you can use to:

  • Promote your group on Facebook and X (formerly Twitter).
  • Send a customized email to your friends with a link to join the group.
  • Embed a signup form on a website or blog.

Also, if your group is listed in the public directory of groups, ensure that your group’s title or description includes the appropriate keywords to help prospective members find your group easily when they search the directory.

Note: The Promote option is not available in a subgroup.
