    I know a friend who made a group a year ago and he always launch small contest (with tagging or adding your friends) or always post interesting content everyday, right now he's holding a 15k of active users in a group.

      Facebook Groups plays an important role in marketing But at first need a big and popular group in the question of increasing facebook groups you can post up to date new information and first tell your friends to share your groups and promote your groups to other largest FB groups.

      You could make a facebook account and join other relevant groups and add the active people to your friendlist and invite them to your group. Your group has to be better ofcourse if you want to win them there.

    Well, perhaps you should make sure your friend list is increasing. Try to join other groups as well and make your page active by posting relevant contents. Images, photos and ads are most likely the effective tools.

    Below are some options IMO,

    1. Join in other groups relevant to your niche. (Prefer Closed Vs Open since you may have quality group.)
    2. Try to create Quality content regularly, that can keep your viewers engaged.
    3. Make sure you create & post few Free Giveaways.
    4. Create a Poll to Engage the people that can keep people engaged.
    5. Have some giveaways in the form of contests or only applicable to people who liked your fb page/group. Otherwise, there is little/no reason for people have to follow/come to your group.

    Try to post in other groups which has got good amount of members, and share that post on your wall. This will allow people to respond and get your page/group. When i posted in others page/group directly or shared my post on their wall, all the likes and comments were lost to their group. (I may be wrong though, just my observation.)

    Hope this helps.

    It's really simple. All you need to do is harness that niche you have. Keep it interesting and work on your page. Keep it updated. Add your audience and the rest will follow. Easier said than done. The challenge is keeping your page interesting. Your members will refer the page to their friends if they found it really worth it to share.

    To boost a new Facebook Group, you should work on it to increase traffic. Please see below:

    1) Make sure the page is enticing and interesting to common users
    2) Join other groups to promote yours. By doing it, you're making your Group familiar with a lot of users.
    3) A regular posting of photos/images and useful contents will make attract members
    4) Try posting some trivia. I am personally entertained by trivias online.
