Video instruction

To begin with, I suggest you familiarize yourself with the video lesson, which shows how to invite a friend on VKontakte so that he registers.

Attention, some points in the video instructions refer to the old VK design, so I recommend reading the text instructions above.

This is a good way to develop a business. Today the functionality of social. The network allows you to conduct almost any type of activity. But bands don't succeed without enough members. Therefore, we decided to tell you the main secrets of attracting new subscribers.

Today you will learn how to invite friends, how to invite strangers, where and how you can buy or attract subscribers and much more. The development of your business will happen faster if you know how to invite friends to a group on VK; it is especially important to learn how to invite the target audience.

Inviting friends is the easiest and most common way to attract new members.

  • No more than 50 friend invitations per day;
  • No more than 40 invitations to the community of friends per day.

Based on this, we can draw a simple conclusion: you won’t be able to invite more than 40 people a day this way. It is also worth remembering that not all 100% of people accept applications, but approximately 50% (unless you invite real friends whom you know in life).

There is also another not very pleasant moment - your friends can turn off incoming invitations. That is, you will not be able to send them a request.

So, how to invite friends to the community:

Inviting friends manually (or using special programs) is used mainly at the initial stage of public development. But, nevertheless, this is a free and effective way to recruit 20-30 people per day.

In mobile applications, the process of adding friends to a community is similar.

How to invite strangers

There are several ways to attract strangers. All of them are effective to one degree or another:

  • Advertising in communities;
  • Targeted advertising;
  • Cheating a live or non-live audience;
  • Buying subscribers.

These are the main methods. They are arranged in descending order of effectiveness (from active to inactive audience).

How to buy subscribers

Today there are a large number of projects on the Internet where you can buy VK subscribers and therefore sometimes problems arise with choosing the right and high-quality service.

We have selected the most popular and effective:

This is just a small drop in the ocean. All these projects will help you buy the required number of participants in just a couple of clicks. The main advantage of these services is their low cost. Disadvantage: not the target audience.

Cheating does not happen immediately, but over a period of time. It all depends on the volume of the order.

Let's use one of the services as an example to try to buy 100 participants. Let's take the service for this:


As you can see, everything is simple. Other services work similarly.

How to attract your target audience

Unfortunately, the services described above will only recruit bots, or live ones, but not targeted ones. If you want to recruit exactly the target audience for your public page (according to some criteria), then you can use advertising.

There are several ways to advertise on VKontakte:

  • Advertising in the community;
  • Exchange of reposts;
  • Targeted advertising.

The first and third are paid. The second one is free.

The first method is quite simple. You can organize advertising display yourself. You just need to agree with the admin to publish your advertisement in his community. The whole difficulty is finding a suitable public site.

The second method is similar to the first. Only here you don’t pay for advertising, but repost each other. Here, too, the whole difficulty lies in finding a suitable public site.

The third method can cause a number of problems. Therefore, if you are not very versed in marketing, then it is better to entrust this issue to a professional. If you still decide to set up targeting yourself, then follow the instructions below:

Remember that to start you need funds in your account. If the balance is zero, then top it up.

Invite and add. Same?

These concepts are similar, but do not always mean the same thing. It all depends on what kind of group you have. If it is open, then there is essentially no difference. If it is closed, then there is a difference.

By invitation we mean directly sending requests. And adding is the approval of received requests.

For example, you created a group and made it private. Only certain people are in it. You share any information there and so on. To add a new member to the group, you have two ways. The first is to send him an invitation. Second, he must apply to join, and you will either add him or not.

How to hide a group

Many VKontakte users are wondering how to hide a group. That is, make it inaccessible to the public.

We would like to remind you that you can restrict access to the community only if it is a group. If you have a public page, then this is not possible. This is a limitation set by the social network itself. network.

If you have a group, then follow the instructions:


“Closed” – anyone can apply to join.

“Private” – you can join only by invitation.

If you have a public page, but you want to make it private, then you need to first transfer it to a group, and then restrict access. You can do this by clicking on the ellipsis button and selecting the last item. And then proceed to the instructions described above.

How to remove people from a group

Sometimes community leaders need to remove some members. But not everyone knows how to do this.

Let's take a closer look at everything.


As you can see, no problem. People are removed as easily as they are invited.

Bottom line

Today we looked at the main points of working with inviting or removing friends from a public page. We also talked about some services and promotion methods.

The main thing is to take a serious approach to business and have a clear idea of ​​the goal. And then any of your undertakings will give the expected result.

3. Post information about your group in other communities where your potential clients are present

4. Publish interesting content that existing group subscribers will want to share with their friends.

We will consistently talk about all of these methods in this and upcoming lessons.

Where to begin?

The very first thing to do is invite people who are already your friends to your group. Why start with this? People are wary of communities that don’t yet have a single member and are reluctant to join them. However, if the person you invite knows you personally, then the popularity of the group is not so important to him. This is the principle of how social networks work: users trust those they know and those their friends know.

If you are not new to the Internet, then you have probably already added classmates, classmates, or just acquaintances to your friends on the website vk.com. If you haven't done this yet, now is the time. Don't know how? Just follow our instructions.

How to add people as friends on vk.com?

If you look at the very top of the vk.com page, you will see this line:

By clicking on the “People” button you will be redirected to the search page for users registered on the Vkontakte website:

You can search for people based on different criteria: by first and last name, by city of residence, by gender, by marital status, by age, by the school or university where they studied. You can search by any combination of these criteria, or by all of them at once:

When you select one or another criterion, additional items may open in front of you to clarify your request. For example, when you select a country, the site will prompt you to additionally specify the city. When you select a school, you will be able to specify the class and year of graduation.

For example, we selected residents of Krasnoyarsk who graduated from Lyceum No. 1 in 2005:

You can also search for people you know by simply entering their first and last name:

The website vk.com has several million registered users. If the person you are looking for does not have the rarest first and last name, then you will find a lot of namesakes and namesakes even in one city. Therefore, we recommend searching for people you know using several criteria at once.

Search by name takes into account both the full version of the name and the diminutive version. Those. By setting the name “Svetlana”, you will automatically find girls who wish to be called “Sveta”, “Svetik”, “Svetochka”, etc.

After you have found the person you need, go to their page. Right below his avatar you will see the “Add as a friend” button.

When someone adds you as a friend, you will see a notification on your page (accordingly, the person you sent the request to will see a similar notification on their page):

If you now click on the “My Friends” button, you will see the request sent to you:

You can add a person as a friend or keep him as a subscriber. What is the difference - read below.

The more people you find and add as friends who you really know, the more VKontakte users you have a chance to notify about your group and, accordingly, the more clients you get. Therefore, do not be lazy to devote time to this.

But you need to remember that you can send friends as friends to no more than 40 people per day.

“Friends” and “subscribers” - what is the difference?

Recently, a new category has appeared on the vk.com website - subscribers.

When you send a friend request to someone, you first become their follower. You can view this person's public information, see his updates in your news feed (see what a news feed is). But until he adds you as a friend in return, he won't see your updates in his news feed.

If you are someone's subscriber, you cannot invite them to groups: you can invite only those users who have approved your friend request to groups.

Accordingly, if a person whom you do not know and whose publications are not interesting to you has asked to be your friend, then when viewing his application, you select “Keep as subscribers.” You cannot send a friend request to anyone again. Therefore, if you define the user as “subscribers”, he will not bother you.

How to invite friends to a group?

After you have made friends on vk.com, you can invite them to the group. To do this, go to your community: under the avatar you will see the “Invite Friends” button:

After clicking on this button, you will see a window in which some of your friends will be displayed. We recommend clicking the “Invite friends from the full list” link at the bottom of this window. A complete list of your friends will open, next to the name of each of them you will see the “Invite to group” button:

You can invite no more than 40 of your friends to the group per day.

By clicking on the “Invite to group” button, you will see that you cannot invite some people because... they forbade inviting themselves to groups. We will tell you how else you can notify them about the group and your services in one of the upcoming lessons.

The vk.com website allows you to re-invite those friends who rejected your invitation to the group, but we strongly recommend that you do not do this too often so as not to seem intrusive. In our opinion, a repeated invitation to the group should be sent to a person no earlier than in a month.

Homework

Find and invite classmates, classmates, work colleagues, students of courses that you may have attended, acquaintances and friends (at least 40 people) as friends. Invite those who accepted your friend request to the group (it’s better to do this the next day). Tell us how many people you invited to the group and how many ended up joining.

One of the most effective methods for free promotion of VKontakte groups is mass mailing of invitations to users in the community.

A striking example of this is a public page dedicated to new music. To promote the community, its owners did not have money for paid promotion. After studying all the free methods, the administrators opted for sending out invitations.

To do this, they created 5 working accounts and began adding their target audience as friends. Upon reaching 2-3 thousand friends on each profile, the group owners manually sent out invitations. In this article we will also look at what you can do in a group so that you can achieve similar results.

After 4 days, more than 500 new members joined the community. In order not to stop there, it was decided to increase the number of accounts from 5 to 15. In a month of active work, just over 8 thousand new subscribers were attracted with practically zero promotion costs.

To do this, go to your community. Click on the button under the public avatar and select “Invite friends.”

In the window that opens, select one or more people to mail to.

You can send no more than 40 invitations per 24 hours from one account.

Options for invitation texts

To increase the conversion of user entries with invitations, you can simultaneously send a personal message with your offer. Let's look at approximate text options for an invitation to a VKontakte group using the example of a public page dedicated to sports.

Option #1

Hello, (indicate username)!

Do you want to start playing sports, but don't know where to start? It's not a problem. There are hundreds of training programs in our community, both for beginners and for professionals who have been involved in sports for decades.

Join our community and become part of a project that will change people's lives for the better. The invitation has already been sent.

Option No. 2

Good afternoon, (username)!

Doing sports? We urgently need your experience.

Join the community (indicate the name of the community), communicate with other athletes, get a boost of motivation for every day. We have already sent you an invitation, all you have to do is accept it.

From these two options we can conclude that that first of all you need to contact the user by name. Personalization is very important, it allows you to increase the response several times. Next, you need to interest the user and briefly describe the focus of your group.

By following these simple rules when composing texts, you can increase the conversion rate when new members join.

Possible problems

When promoting a public site through inviting, various kinds of difficulties may arise. Therefore, you should consider in more detail possible problems when sending out invitations to a VKontakte group and effective options for solving them.

Blocking work accounts

If you work with software, then use an ipv 4 proxy. This allows you to minimize the chance of blocking, since thanks to proxy servers, the IP address from which actions are performed changes.

Also, set a delay between actions. There is no need to send all 40 invitations from your account in 10 seconds. Set the intervals from one send to another to be at least 120 seconds.

If you work manually, then also maintain a delay between actions. And in no case exceed the permissible daily limit for mailing.

Low conversion on entries

Bottom line

Ultimately, it is worth noting that sending out invitations to people to join a group is an effective way to promote VK communities. The main thing is to follow the rules described above and then the result will not be long in coming. Special programs have been developed that greatly simplify the process of sending out invitations. Mass invitation of people on VKontakte will allow you to earn money faster.

The popular social network VKontakte is developing rapidly every day. Numerous users use it not only to communicate with their friends and meet new people, but also to conduct business. By opening a community on VKontakte, people who have started their own business have the opportunity to promote their services or products with the help of numerous subscribers. To do this, you should properly promote your community and invite a large number of participants. And you should start by sending invitations to the group to your friends.

Inviting a group of friends is a simple process that is accessible to everyone. But sometimes people do not know how to do this or experience unexpected difficulties in this matter. They will be helped by useful tips that will allow them not only to solve the problems that have arisen, but also to get many subscribers in a fairly short period of time.

Difficulties with inviting friends to a group on VKontakte

You can only send invitations to the group to your friends. A user outside the contact list can only write a message or invite him to the group, diligently advertising it in other communities with similar topics. This is a rather complex process that requires, in addition to a lot of time, the expenditure of financial resources.

You should know that there are limits on sending invitations to a group on VKontakte. So, having invited forty people, the user will be able to continue sending out invitations only after a day.

The "Invite Friends" button is missing

From time to time, having decided to send invitations to friends, the user discovers that the corresponding button is missing. Instead, the “You are subscribed” notification lights up and two options are offered - “Unsubscribe” and “Hide news”.

The reason for this difficulty is that the user, when creating the community, made it a public page, not a group. And this status automatically excludes the possibility of inviting subscribers through a special button.

How to add an “Invite Friends” button to a VKontakte group

To be able to invite friends, you should install the appropriate button. This is done as follows.

You need to go to the community and open the menu located below the group photo. There is a special option there for changing a public page into a group. By clicking on it, the user will receive a notification that the next time he will be able to perform this action only after thirty days. Next, a message will be sent to his mobile phone with a code confirming the action. After specifying these numbers in the appropriate field, the community will change its status, and the user will see the necessary button and will be able to invite friends.

How to get invitations to a group

Since the social network has a limit on the number of people who can be invited to the group, recruiting subscribers and promoting the community will take a long time. To avoid this, you should use subscriber boost.

There are several ways to increase invitations to a group of friends. One of them is the use of the local mutual aid system “I will enter mutually”. To do this you need to do the following:

  • open the search for communities and search for groups whose administrators offer to join their group in exchange for a similar action,
  • Having found a suitable offer, you need to send a message to the head of the community about your agreement to mutually beneficial cooperation.

All that remains is to wait for the return service from the partner.

This process has a number of significant disadvantages.

Firstly, no one guarantees that, having received a new subscriber, a person will respond in kind and fulfill his obligation.

Secondly, this is a rather lengthy process.

Thirdly, it is possible that a new subscriber will leave a group that is uninteresting to him in a few days; this is usually what happens.

  • registration on the portal;
  • completing a number of assigned tasks. As a rule, you need to join a group, like or repost a post.

The user earns points for completed tasks.

Having collected the required amount, he can purchase subscribers to join his community.

In some ways, this process is reminiscent of the usual increase in subscribers in groups, but the significant difference is that people who complete their tasks do not subsequently leave the communities they joined. The disadvantage of this method is that it takes a lot of time, causing some inconvenience.

Sending invitations to the community on VKontakte

Sending invitations to a group on VK is the most effective and convenient way to promote both the community and business in general.

By creating a mass mailing, the user advertises his products or services to many users, and this is a great advantage. Another advantage of this method is searching for subscribers by interests, gender, location, age.

To create your own newsletter, you should turn to specialized services. One of the most convenient and safe is Bosslike. Specialists can help you set up your mailing list; they will correctly select the necessary parameters to select the most suitable audience for the community.

You need to understand that incorrect actions to increase subscribers can lead to blocking of the group.

After setting up the newsletter, new subscribers will begin to appear in the community. Now it's up to its creator. By filling the group with high-quality and interesting content, he contributes to the emergence of new members who join the group voluntarily.

Invitations to the group to participate in the competition

In addition to the methods described above, you can promote your community and gain new subscribers by inviting people to take part in a competition. This method works very well, and it is not at all necessary to buy an expensive prize.

To notify social network users about the competition, you should create a corresponding post containing information about the prize and the date of the draw, and then publish it in as many groups as possible. It is necessary to establish the condition that in order to participate, you must repost the entry on your wall, save it until the end of the draw, and also join the community. You can select the winner of the competition using a special program.

Bottom line

So, one of the good ways to develop your own business is to create a group on VKontakte and promote it. In order for as many people as possible to know about your services or products, you need to attract subscribers. There are a large number of ways to do this; which one to choose is up to the owner of the group. It is better to try them all and choose the most effective one. The result will be a large number of users in the community.
