There are over 70M Pages on Facebook and this development will change the how fans interact with the brands on Facebook. Now Page owners have the capability to create their own linked and dedicated groups to encourage community building and stable conversation mechanism.

This makes the groups feature one of the significant and popular features of Facebook. This also encourages the platform to make constant improvements to this popular feature. And this development proves it all.

Last month, Facebook also announced some significant improvements to the Groups. From Group insights to Membership request filtering and Removed member clean up to scheduled posting, all these improvements aim at bringing better and stronger user experience.

It would be really interesting to see how the platform take this initiative ahead and come up with some more exciting and interactive improvements for the community.
