I started an FB group and it now has over 5,000 members which is great but this means I am no longer allowed to send updates to people in the group. Also Facebook no longer offers the option to change a group into a fan page (which would allow for updates to be sent to fans)
I was just wondering if people had any input about the benefits of having a fan page vs a group for a company/website. especially now that facebook has altered the way that fan pages work...

Sounds like a real First World Problem you've got there. I'll give my thoughts tomorrow when I'm not lying in bed in the dark typing on my iPhone above my head while my arms go numb. First World Problems... We've all got em.

i'd focus on your fan page page now... from what i understand FB has made this change to try and win back all the company profiles moving over to Twitter.
FB groups are kinda useless in my opinion. At least Fan pages now feed into the user's home news.

Why not sign up for a fan page, set it up the same, delete some people from the group so its under 5000 then send out updates to them giving them the link to the new fan page instead.
