That didn't take long!
As announced by Facebook Chief Product Officer, Chris Cox last week (see my blog post on the announcements), a change has been made to Facebook Groups pulling all the Admin tools and insights into a single place.
We are currently only seeing the new feature on mobile and, as with any major change, Facebook is highlighting the new feature:
The admin hub is designed to help Admins streamline their management of the Group and ease the day-to-day tasks such ...
Missed the Facebook Communities Summit?
Here are the key points from the keynote speech.
Chief Product Officer Chris Cox flew into Europe to make some big announcements in relation to the new Facebook mission of building communities. In attendance at the two-day event were some of Europe's top Facebook community builders: group admins, event creators, and page admins.
You can watch the video here but I've summarised the key points below:

As we hit the 1,500 member mark we have taken the decision to shortly close the doors of our Facebook Group to new members who are not also members of our premium digital marketing learning service, Digiterati Academy.
Don't worry if you're already in the Group and not an Academy member: you'll retain your free membership forever and are unaffected by the change.
But why restrict the membership of a thriving Facebook Group?
It's simply that we want to keep the Group a GREAT place for d...
I stumbled across algorithm change insight gold this morning in the form of a series of screen grabs from a private webinar on News Feed updates from the new Facebook Journalism Project. The Next Web's Matt Navarra had tweeted the screen grabs (those I am showing here are from his Twitter account) and I've also managed to find a set of detailed notes from the webinar that Ned Berke has compiled.
Together these shed light on what the algorithm changes mean for Pages, and in particular new...
The fallout from Facebook Zero has been very varied between Pages. Some are reporting little difference, and some, like the Page we are going to feature here, are experiencing huge drops in reach.
We were contacted a few days after the Facebook announcement of 11 January by Alexandre Cortez. Alexandre had grown a huge Page (I Love Pot) on the topic of recreational cannabis use (which of course is legal in some countries and on many others there is pressure to relax legislation) over a f...
Prediction: Facebook's engagement metrics slipped in Q4 2017
In little more than 24 hours my bold (foolish?!) prediction is either going to be proved right, or I'm going to look a right cock.
Let me explain why this is a watershed moment for Facebook and digital marketers either way...
Facebook is under the cosh. Big time.
It cannot be disputed that poor Facebook is on a bit of a downer at the moment. In the past 12 months or so it's been through the mill...

The General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) comes into force on 25 May 2018. It contains some of the toughest privacy regulations in the world. And it's likely to affect your business whether you like it or not. Its key theme - consent for marketing - puts the customer in charge of data (and the way you communicate with them) more than ever before.
Larger organisations inside the EU are already relatively aware of the legislation and this week even Facebook has made a privacy-...
I have a confession.
For the last couple of years I've often used AdEspresso over Facebook's Ads Manager or Power Editor when creating Facebook ad campaigns.
Initially it was because AdEspresso allowed me the holy grail of being able to target people with more than one interest. Then Facebook rolled this out into Power Editor and called it Detailed Targeting.
But by then AdEspresso had me well and truly sucked in because a) it's platform is soooo super easy to use and b) it enabled inte...
